Graduation nails!

My best friend has passed her high school and she has her graduation soon. I had the honor of painter her nails for that evening 

Yesterday we went shopping to buy her stuff for her new room when she goed to college. After buying EVERYTHING out of every store. We went to my place and I painted her nails.

And this is the end result:

 Some sweet little grey flowers with a blue glitter accent on a green/blue gradient base.

These polishes I used for this look:


Start off with your base coat, let this dry and paint a single layer of white paint on top of your nails. Next you need a makeup sponge. paint two lines of the polishes you want to use for the gradient next to each other.






When you've done this you carefully dip the sponge on top of your nail. You may have to repeat this step once or twice to get the best gradient. Let this dry and add a topcoat. This way the colors blend better and it looks nicer too. Now you can start with the little flower.
For the flower I used two different dottingtools: one with a really small dot and one with a slightly bigger dot.
I recreated the flower on a fake nail to show you how you can make this design:

When you're done with these flowers add a topcoat and this cute design is done!
