Today I have for you a pink gradient I did using Jordana's Soft Pink as the base color (2-3 coats) and I sponged Zoya Reagan on the tips. I then added an image from Red Angel plate 102 using Konad special polish in Black Pearl.
Sammy at The Nailasaurus has THE BEST tutorial on how to do gradients, which can be found here. She always has the best ideas for manis.
