What is the correct way to do a french manicure?

Question

Do you do the white big first then the nude top coat,or the other way round?

Answer 1

A french manicure is very simple to do and its up to you which way you do it as both look great. Remember there are no rules when it comes to beauty!

Make sure your nails are on tip-top condition before applying nail varnish. Only file the nails one way as doing otherwise ruins the nail fibres, file them squared as french manicures always look best on square nails.

Apply a clear coat of nail varnish first of all as coloured nail varnish stains the nails yellow. next apply which ever colour you want either the white first or the nude coat first its up to you both look great. When applying the white coat make sure you do it in a straight line. Also give 2 coats of the nude varnish so it will stay on longer. Finally when its all dry apply a last clear coat and the varnish should stay on for over a week.

To keep your nails looking great eat plenty of fresh fruit and vegetables and drink lots of water and milk.

Hope this helps!
