How do they do a 'colored' french manicure? White w/ Black.?

White base with black tips, on semi-short, semi-rounded nails.





I was told it was very difficult to do...





So would it look messy?

The trick is to apply the white base first %26amp; allow it to dry completely before applying the black tips.





You can apply a bit of scotch tape as a guide after the white base has dried completely.





Or you can use the cardboard cut out trick shown in this video after the white base has dried: http://www.videojug.com/film/how-to-give鈥?/a>
It wouldn't look messy if you do it right.


Replace the nude colored nail polish in a french manicure kit with black and white nail polish.
