Gradient with Kiko

I've sooo jumped on the awesome gradient bandwagon! How could I not, they just look so cool! I chose a pastel-ish gradient, originally I was just going to have one colour nails but then I got bored , how often does that happen eh? :P. First I had Kiko 345 Jade Green on, which applied so smooth and was opaque in two coats, such good quality for the price! 
Gorgeous colour right? 


I sponged Kiko 338 Light Lavender using the polish on the sponge method that we all know and love thanks to this tutorial :) it was super easy to do and looks really good IRL however it doesn't really translate to film, I'm not sure why but here are the pictures

I used a makeup sponge so the transition was very smooth however I think I overdid it with the sponge as I kept pulling polish up to form little horrible lumps :( lol I'm surprised I didn't remove it as it's so lumpy at the tips. So next time I will slow down with the sponging, I think it's cos I didn't have enough polish on the sponge so I will definitely try again :). 

What do you think to my gradient?

Looks great in the pictures. I had a similar problem with mine and topcoat seemed to smooth it out nicely.
