Step 1 of 17

Supplies!!!

Step 2 of 17

Clean off nails using the polish remover. Then rinse nails with water (don't use soap!)

Step 3 of 17

Start by applying the tape to whatever thickness you wish to have your french tip to be

Step 4 of 17

Can't really tell but I rounded the lining by pressing and pulling the tape down at the same time while applying

Step 5 of 17

For the next step I used Sally Hansen triple strong clear polish because it dries fast and looks great!

Step 6 of 17

Next add a coat of clear polish to your tip..

Step 7 of 17

*Do not let the clear coat dry!

Step 8 of 17

Carefully add the sparkles to the wet tip. I used a plate to catch the loose sparkles. (i got my tube of sparkles from claires)

Step 9 of 17

Color of your choice :) should look something like this

Step 10 of 17

Shake off loose sparkles.. Let the polish dry..then add another clear coat to the tip. Securing the sparkles in place. Let dry.

Step 11 of 17

After polish dries over the sparkles... Carefully remove the tape.. Should reveal a perfectly lined sparkle tip

Step 12 of 17

:))

Step 13 of 17

Finally cover the whole nail with another clear coat to finish the nail off for a clean look.

Step 14 of 17

Repeat with each nail. And you're done!! =]

Step 15 of 17

You may use this strategy with nails that have been polished with a base coat color. Just make sure that the base polish is completely dry so the tape doesn't take the it off.

Step 16 of 17

You can use this method on your toes as well!!! It's that easy :))

Step 17 of 17

Hope you enjoyed this tutorial! Good luck!

You're Done!

@lord George, it's the name of the type of design. They call anything that just covers the tip of your nail a French tip. Idk why, but they do! It's not necessarily saying that a french woman would or wouldn't do this type of style:)

Grace Sammarco last year

Love this idea, soo simple but super cute!;)

Grace Sammarco last year

Lol not necessarily. But why are u looking at a this tutorial anyway? It's for females not antagonistic grown men. Hahhaha

Sweet Dee (author) last year

No French woman, or any European ditto, would ever put glitter on herself. Except perhaps for Russian women... So I'd rather call it American/Russian-nails. Just saying. But I'm sure you did a great job with this tutorial . :)
