Lately I have seen lots of posts on ombré and gradient being called completely different thing which is simply not true! Yes they are different but the are also pretty similar! So I thought to settle the peace I would get some definitions from online!

Gradient: A gradient effect is the gradual fading or shading of one shade of color into another.

Ombré: : having colors or tones that shade into each other- graduated from light to dark

So in turn as long as nail art with sponges is done with shades from light to dark or dark to light it IS ombré!
