26 Great Nail Art Ideas: Reciprocal Gradient

I've never done a reciprocal gradient before and while I think it worked, next time I wouldn't use a peel off base coat as the liquid latex and the striping tape kept trying to pull away the polish.

The Spring equinox happened on Friday (along with the eclipse) and so to mark the official end of Winter I thought it was time to show my top 5 polish picks. You can see my picks from 2013 here and 2014 here. Of course you don't need these specific brands and colours but something along these lines are very Spring appropriate, if that is what you are looking for.
