Rainbow Holo Gradient Nail Art

I created this for a collaboration on Instagram. The theme was unicorns. I was short on time so I just did rainbows and sparkly stuff. I used Orly Mirrorball as the base, and created a gradient with the colors in the OPI Color Paints mini set. I've got a couple of macros after the break/below.

This was with OPI Chromatic Orange and Pen & Ink.

I love the gradient in my pinky so much I need to recreate it. Maybe a galaxy mani? I don't know, it's just magical. This was with Purple Perspective and Turquoise Aesthetic.

I don't have a tutorial for these. I did film one but when I sat down to edit there were way to many technical issues (this was with my old PC) and I would have had to re-film the whole thing and I just simply didn't feel like it. It's pretty simple, lay down a base of a glitter silver holo, then create a gradient with two colors per nail, working your way through the rainbow.
