A Fun twist on the French

Hi all! How's everyone doin'? Time for more polish talk. I'm gonna share with you guys a little technique of my own. It starts out as a simple French Manicure, but it easily turns into some thing way cooler looking!


I'm gonna show ya two sets, five colors each, for a grand total of 10 different colors! The first set is a bunch of bright, eye-catching colors, perfect for summer. The second set is a group of metallic, elegant colors.

The only extra tool you need for this is sponge, and it doesn't even have to be big. When I do this I use a regular old kitchen sponge, I've never tried it with a makeup sponge, so I don't know how well it'll work.

Anyway, this is very simple. You start with your base color, then you French the tip with white. Make sure that you have quite a bit of white dribbled on otherwise you won't get the right look. And even if your nails aren't long, it works best with a thicker French. It doesn't matter if you don't have a steady enough hand to make a perfect tip, the next step fixes it...or destroys it...it depends on how ya wanna look at it. ☺


WORK QUICKLY! The next step is to take your sponge and drag the bottom part of the French down across the nail, leaving a little bit of the tip still in tact at the top. It may take a few swipes to get the look you want to achieve.


When you have done that your new French design is complete! Now, that wasn't so hard, was it?!? Remember to top coat for long lasting wear!

Ha-Be-Dee-Ha-Be-Dee-Ha-Be-Dee-That's-All-Folks! (Please lemme know what you think!) And I apologize for the poor quality of the pix. It really shows up if you give it a try!
