Gradation On My Mind

I'm so digging the gradation nails right now.  Here's an example but there are tons more.  Steps to do:

1.  Paint two coats of light colored polish over entire nail;
2.  Take a medium to dark shade and brush it over the top third of your nail.  It doesn't have to be french manicure perfect.  Do this two nails at a time;
3.  While your nails are still wet from No. 2 above, brush a glittery type polish over half your nail, from middle to end over the darker shade. 
4.  Finish the rest of your nails, add top coat and you are done!

This technique is pretty easy and the combinations are endless.
