1. Classic French Tips:
This timeless design is perfect for any occasion. Start by applying a nude or light pink base coat. Once dry, use a thin brush to create a white tip at the edge of each nail. For a cleaner line, use a nail art striping tape as a guide. Finish with a top coat for a glossy shine.
2. Ombre Nails:
Create a gradual transition of colors for a trendy and eye-catching look. Begin with a base coat. Then, select two or three polishes in similar or contrasting shades. Apply each color in horizontal stripes, starting with the lightest shade at the tip and gradually transitioning to the darkest shade at the base of the nail. Blend the colors using a makeup sponge or a brush for a seamless ombre effect. Finally, seal it with a top coat.
