Red, White, and Blue French Tip Nails: The Ultimate Patriotic Look
As we gear up for the summer season, it's time to add a touch of patriotism to our nails. One of the best ways to do this is with a classic French tip style, but with a red, white, and blue twist. Not only is this look chic and stylish, but it's perfect for any occasion; from backyard barbeques to Fourth of July parties. So, how can you achieve the perfect red, white, and blue French tip nails? Here's how:
1. Start with a clean slate: Remove any old nail polish and clean your nails thoroughly.
2. Paint your base color: Apply a coat of white polish to your nails and let them dry completely before moving on to the next step. A great option for this is OPI's Alpine Snow.
3. Apply tape: Once your nails are dry, apply small pieces of tape diagonally across your nails, leaving only the tips exposed.
4. Paint the tips: Using a red polish, paint the tips of your nails, making sure to stay within the taped-off area. Good options for this include Essie's Fifth Avenue or China Glaze's Hey Sailor.
5. Repeat with blue: Repeat step four, but this time using a blue polish. Some great options for this include Essie's Butler Please or OPI's Keeping Suzi at Bay.
6. Peel off the tape: Once the polish is dry, gently peel off the tape to reveal your perfectly painted red, white, and blue French tip nails.
7. Add a topcoat: Apply a shiny topcoat to help the polish last longer and add a glossy finish. We recommend Sally Hansen's Miracle Gel Top Coat for a long-lasting, chip-free look.
Voilร ! With these steps, you'll have the ultimate patriotic look for your nails. Not only is it easy to do yourself, but it's also an affordable way to switch up your style for the summer season. So, grab your favorite red, white, and blue nail polishes, and get ready to show off your chic and stylish French tip nails at all your summer events.
