Soak your hands in a bowl of hot water and whole milk or olive oil. This will help soften the cuticle and make trimming easier. Soak for about 3 minutes and then dry with a towel.

The base coat for a French manicure is usually light pink, cream, or clear. The first stroke should be applied from the center and then from both sides. Start at the base of the nail and work your way up. Slowly paint over the entire nail. Apply base coat to each nail on both hands.

6. Apply white on your fingertips

When applying white nail polish to your fingertips, your hands must not shake and must be steady. When applying, apply it in one stroke, without interruptions. Wait until your fingertips are completely dry before applying another coat. Finally, apply a layer of clear topcoat to protect your freshly painted French manicure.
