Purple to Pink Gradient

Happy Friday! I think this is the best gradient I have ever done, or it could be the worst, I will let you guys decide.  I used my Kleancolor Metallics for this gradient.  I started with Purple as the base, then sponged on Magenta and lastly I sponged on Pink.  After all was sponged on, I added a topcoat.  This is where things got a little weird to me.  It's like the colors just all melted into one another.  I know that's what a gradient is supposed to do, but this seemed like the topcoat pulled the colors down.  The pink was eaten by the magenta.  It still makes a neat effect.  Enjoy!




Sorry for the glare

    I love it! The transition is subtle but obvious very pretty! Plus purple is my favorite color :D but I can't pull it off

    I love the subtle gradient - it's clearly visible, but still subtle - very nice!

    Well, that's the magic of the topcoat! It blends the colors even more and gives a seamless effect! I love your gradient and the colors you've chosen :)

    Loving how they just blend into one another. I have the Metallic Purple and it always amazes me that when taking it off it turns to silver

    Wow! That's one of the smoothest gradients I've ever seen. What topcoat did you use? I might have to try it the next time I try a gradient.
