NOTD: DIY French Manicure


There will come a time in our lives when bright nails aren't appropriate, or we want to feel posh. A french manicure is perfect for these times, and with a little practice, theres no reason why we can't do one ourselves! 

Of course there are hundreds of polishes out there you can use to do this, but these are the ones i like to use.


L.A colours in French Nails Pink - here
OPI RapiDry TopCoat - here
Barry M Nail Paint in Matt White - here







The steps could not be simpler!
1. Paint 2 coats of a half moon shape over the white part of your nail (if you have shorter nails, you can cheat and make your white bit look longer ;) ) and wait to dry.

2. Paint 1 coat of the pink (i found that 2 coats don't work with this particular polish) and wait to dry.

3. Use a top coat to keep manicure in place for longer

4. Wear pretty jewellery on your hands so that everyone notices your lady like hands!
