How to: Easy french nails

HELLO!!
A new super easy nail tutorial! :D

It's rather difficult to paint french nails using just bare hands. It gets a lot more difficult for right handers to paint on their right hand (vice versa) as well.

So most of the time, I've been using french nail guides (I got it from a french manicure set, they are a set of stickers) or scotch tape as a guide when I want to do french nails.
However, french nail guides are hard to find, and probably quite expensive. Scotch tapes work fine for me but I'll have to go through the hassle of cutting them into the right size for my nails before using them.

So.....

I use double eyelid tapes!

There are tons of eyelid tapes selling at a really affordable price outside. I bought mine at $1.50 for 240 pieces from Pink Beauty.


Double sided eyelid tapes are very similar to the french tip guides I own!

Start off with base coat to protect your nails. Then, paint a french nude base before you proceed to the tips.


Next, wait for the base to completely dry before you stick the tape and paint white, or any colour over it!


I'm using my current favourite nail polish, Skyfall by O.P.I.

Peel the tape off before your nail polish dries up.
After that, do the same steps to the rest of your nails, wait for them to dry and paint a top coat over it!


You can paint gold glitter right on the french tip's line for extra glam too. :D

NOW WE CAN ALL DO FRENCH NAILS, THE EASY WAY. YAY!!!

Thanks for reading and I'm so sorry I haven't been blogging lately. Too many dramas going on when all I want to do is to just sit back, relax, and do my own shit.


Some of the pictures I took about a week back haha.

Love y'all, always.
