This is a manicure that has stood the test of time. Both discreet and chic, the French manicure has nothing French apart from its name. Today, I will tell you how to make a perfect French manicure.

The French manicure, a timeless

This is a trend that comes straight from the United States. Very chic and sober, it consists of varnishing the end of the nails with a line of white varnish, and applying a thin layer of pastel varnish over the nail to give it a natural effect.

Prepare the nail

It is advisable to prepare your nails with a thoroughly cleaning. Dip your hands in warm water to soften the cuticles and push them back with a woodeen stick. Then file them with a nail file to give the desired shape to your nails. Finally, buff the nail with a nail buffer block to smooth the surface.

The white varnish, the first step of the French manicure

First, apply a base coat to have a smooth surface. On the end of the nail, pass the brush by forming a slight rounding that follows the movement of the nail. For a pronounced effect, do not hesitate to apply a second coat of white varnish. Apply the white polish to the ends.

The finish of the french manicure

Once the white varnish is dry, apply transparent or slightly pink varnish over the entire nail. One coat is enough. After the necessary drying time, apply a layer of top coat for a shiny effect but also for the French manicure to last as long as possible.
