All nails look beautiful with a French manicure.  So I am going to let you know how to do one, it is so easy with a little practice.  The art of a good French Manicure is to take your time.  Don't forget you can to your toes like this to.

What you will need:

A base coat

Your two colours (Normally a white and a flesh colour, but many are different, once you get the hang of it why stick to those colours mix some of your favorite colours together)

A top coat.

Possible an orange stick with some enamel remover to tidy up afterwards until you get the hang of it.

The Procedure:

• Apply base coat to all nails and leave to dry.  (A good tip is if you have split nails then it is wise to apply a ridge filler before your base coat.  This will even out your nail plate and you will get a better finish)

• Apply the tip.  (If on a client - the best way is to hold the finger either side of the nail and slightly twist the finger in the opposite direction that you are applying the enamel.  If on yourself - then then turn your finger as before)  Leave to dry.

• Apply our second colour, normally the flesh one over the whole nail and leave to dry.

• Lastly apply a top coat and leave to dry.

You can also make your French manicure that little different see the pictures below.

I rather like the first nail with the jagged edge, you can swap the colours or pick the ones you love the most.

As for the second nail, this is good if you want a French manicure to match an outfit or something, just choose the colours and don't forget to put a top coat over the top of your design.

The last nail sadly didn't come out as well as I had hoped.  This one has a star on it and is very noticeable in the light. 

So you can see you are not restricted even with a French manicure.  Mix and match and have fun with your enamels and nails!
