At home french manicure?

Question

I want to do a french manicure at home, but Im going to use some bright summer colors instead of the traditional manicure colors. Im going to do my nail beds pink with the tips black. Are there any tips for how to do this in a neat way? Also, Im not going to be using artificial nails, I'll be using my own real nails! Thanks!

Answer 1

i do french manicure on my toes all the time ! =)
at Savons or Vons, they sell cheap self manicure kits.
If you don't want to spend money on that, use tape.
Just put a piece of tape under the tip and just paint right over =)
It's so easy and great!

Answer 2

I use the french manicure nail kit from Walmart. It has sticky things to put on your nail down below you nail tip. If you can get some of those at a salon or somewhere, they would work perfect.

i have done this many times. u can get nail corrector at sally's. it is a small little pen. do the tip in you color in what ever design let it dry, then correct it with the pen. the most of pink is made to go the tip so you can see the color under. very simple!
