Manicure the french way

Not much to say, everyone knows how to do a french manicure. Its basically three simple steps, plus a technique for the brush strokes.
You dont need long nails to do this. Just a few millimetres of white nail, will do just fine.

First of all you need this:



French white, french pink, and french finish.


You need to paint a strip of white at the top of your nails in a very faint shape of a half moon. You can pain below the white of your nails, onto the pink, to give the illusion of longer white nails.
Once this had dried (I find the manicare french set to very quick drying), apply a coat to the whole nail, over the white. Make sure its not too think, nor too thin. It must spread evenly and neatly. Then once this had dried apply the french polish over the top. Done!

Here is the finished product:



Very sorry about the poor image quality. I took these photos with my mobile phone. Next time i will use my dslr for more detail!
