Tips For French Manicure
1. Start with
clean hands and nails. Wash and exfolliate your hands with body scrub.
Rinse and dry thoroughly.
2.
Prepare your nails by filing and pushing back cuticles. Apply the
base/top coat of nail polish and let dry completely.
3.
Use a guide strip and affix
it below the tip of a nail, following its natural curve. The guide
will allow you to paint an even white tip with ease and precision.
4.
Paint each nail tip white, extending the brush stroke from the top
of the guide to the end of the nail. Take care not to get any white
polish on the body of the nail below the guide. Let the tips
dry
5.
After the tips are dry, remove all the guides. If there is any
adhesive stuck to your nail from the guide, you can remove it with
alcohol. (guides can be purchased here or at your local drug store.)
6.
Apply two coats of the neutral polish, letting the first coat dry
before the second application. Finish with a thin layer of clear nail
hardner. |
