Hi girls. How are you all. Christmas and
New year fever is all over, all holidays are already consumed and now I am
overloaded with lots of work at office(sigh). But hey that can’t stop me from
talking to you guys here (grin grin). So today’s post is about how to do French
manicure at home.

| French Manicured Nails |
I am really obsessed with French manicure.
It looks so elegant and classy. It is evergreen and I just love it. One funny
story of me that I want to share here is that during my teenage days, I was not
exposed to the internet world much. When I used to see the French manicured
nails of actresses like Karishma Kapoor and Rani Mukherjee, I used to think
that their nails are really this white and I used to just clean and clean my
nails endlessly. Then I concluded with heavy heart that my nails are not white
like them. (haha I know this is very funny and embarrassing but it’s true. LOL). Much later did I come to know that hey that’s
called a French manicure and my nails are alright (hehe).
So girls here’s how I do French manicure at
home. They charge a lot in the salon and I like to do it myself at home as it’s
super easy. I am not an expert at this but I can share how I do it. All you
need for it is a French manicure set, French manicure tips, ear buds and a nail
polish remover.

I ordered Miss Caire manicure set online from flipkart but I didn’t like it much. I
have heard good reviews about sally Hansen set so you can go for it and order
online. French manicure Set contains a white, transparent, nude and light
pinkish nail paints. But I now use OPI white nail paint which I got in traveler OPI mini set (the one that I showed
you guys in “My October shopping haul”) and it has amazing finish. I have not
looked back since then as it is so awesome. I use nail tips from Konad and it serves
the purpose very well for me. You can also get this manicure set and tips from
local beauty stores. In place of tips you can also use tapes and other means.
There are lots of options that you can find out through Youtube.

So following are the steps that you need to
follow:
Step 1: First
peel the tip and apply on nails.
 |
| Tips sticked to nail ends |
Step 2: Now apply
white nail paint beyond the tip. Wait for around 20 minutes to let it dry.
 |
| Apply white nail paint |
Step 3: Now peel
off the tips. The nail paint will spread a little. Don’t worry we will fix it
in next step.

| Tips sticked out |
Step 4: Now take
an ear bud. Soak it in little Nail polish remover and apply wherever white nail
paint has spread unevenly.
Step 5: Apply top
transparent coat and voila your French manicure is complete.
