Witchy obre nails have become a popular trend in the world of nail art. This unique and eye-catching design involves creating a gradient effect on the nails, using dark and mysterious colors that are reminiscent of a witch's aesthetic. The term "obre" refers to the Spanish word for shading or fading, which perfectly describes the gradual transition of colors on the nails. To achieve witchy obre nails, the first step is to prep the nails by filing, shaping, and buffing them. Once the nails are ready, a base coat is applied to protect the nails and ensure the longevity of the design. Next, a dark polish is used as the base color, typically black or deep purple, to create a dramatic and mystical look.

I rode these tires in and around Squamish, BC on an 160 mm bike. I sit and spin uphill, and spend my timedescending on a mix of slabs, roots, rocks, jumps, and flow trails.

When new, the grip between the old vertstar and new addix soft compound is nearly identical, but the addix soft compound wears much, much slower than the vertstar.

Next, a dark polish is used as the base color, typically black or deep purple, to create a dramatic and mystical look. After the base color is dry, it's time to create the obre effect. This is done by applying a lighter shade of the same color or a complementary hue starting from the base of the nail and blending it towards the tip.

In terms of outright grip, the old compound magic mary was hard to beat, but its durability left a lot to be desired. Enter the new Addix Soft Compound. Schwalbe claims that this new compound will offer slightly better grip and considerably better wear characteristics than the old Vertstar compound. This past summer and fall (Aug-Dec), I ran a Vertstar 2.35 SG MM, and this winter (Jan-April) I rode the Addix Soft 2.35 SG MM, both as a front tire. So, how do the new compound and the old compound compare?

On soft soils, these tires dig in hard and offer really good grip, both braking and cornering. On hardpack, the tire does a good enough job, but the tall, soft knobs squirm during hard cornering. When new, the grip between the old vertstar and new addix soft compound is nearly identical, but the addix soft compound wears much, much slower than the vertstar. After 3.5 months on my bike, riding 2-5 days per week, the Addix soft Magic Mary is just starting to show signs of wear on the side knobs, and the center knobs still look new. After 3.5 months, the old Vertstar compound was missing knobs and in need of replacement. I expect to get about 2.5 more months our of this tire, which makes the high MSRP easier to swallow.

On wet wood, the tire has shit grip. But every tire sucks on wet wood, so this isn't a significant drawback. On slabs, dry wood, and dry roots this tire hooks up well and provides loads of confidence to the rider.

Compared to another great all-around tire, the Minion DHF 2.3 DD Maxxgrip, the Magic Mary has more volume, brakes a bit better, and is better in soft, loose, or wet conditions. The DHF gets the nod on hardpack conditions and rolls a bit faster. The compounds of both tires have similar grip, however the schwalbe compound wears much slower than the 3C Maxxgrip.

4.5 star rating due to the versatility and impressive wear characteristics, minus half a point for being heavy and slow rolling.

The key is to use a sponge or a special obre brush to gently dab or blend the colors to create a seamless transition. For a more magical touch, some nail artists incorporate additional elements such as glitter, metallic accents, or even small decals of witches, moons, or other mystical symbols. These add-ons can further enhance the witchy vibe and make the nails truly bewitching. Finally, a high-quality top coat is applied to seal the design and give the nails a glossy finish. This not only adds shine but also helps prevent chipping and ensure the longevity of the manicure. Witchy obre nails are an excellent choice for Halloween, gothic or witch-themed events, or simply for someone who wants to embrace their inner witch and showcase their love for the occult. It's a versatile and creative nail art design that allows for endless customization and personalization. In conclusion, witchy obre nails offer a bewitching and enchanting look that is perfect for those with a love for all things magical and mysterious. With their gradient of dark and moody colors, they are sure to make a statement and captivate the attention of anyone who sets their eyes upon them. Embrace your inner witch with this mesmerizing nail art trend!.
