How Do You Give Yourself A Pretty French Manicure?
The nail style that never goes out of fashion, the french manicure, is an elegant yet simple style that you can do yourself right at home! Start by trimming your fingernails and filing them smooth – how long or short you decide to trim is up to you. (I think french manicures look better on longer fingernails, though). Apply a base coat of clear nail polish to your fingernails. Let it dry before applying the tip guides to your nails. The tip guide should go right below the curves of the white areas of your fingernails. Carefully paint the white area of your nails with a white nail polish. Follow the tip guide to get a perfect curve. Let it dry before removing the tip guides. Once dry, peel the tip guides off from one corner of your nail to the other. Add a coat of light pink or beige nail polish on your fingernails. Let it dry before applying another coat. Finally, add a final coat of clear or chip-free nail polish on top to extend the life of your manicure.
