I too have been trying for that perfect gradient soft white French manicure. I finally got it down but it took me sooo many tries with different products. About a $100 worth of nothing but see through soft pinks and milky white polishes. I was about to give up though. You just have to find what works for yourself. I'm glad I stuck with it. I love the look! Mine are more of a blended gradient look. Yours were pretty too though! Thx, Patty 😊

You can try doing the first nude layer as thin as possible, and the use a milky white base for the tips, and after that top it with a sheer rubber base to create the structure on top instead of at the start

[@racheld7528]

I appreciate the video and the work.

[@emmarodden7178]

I’d do anything to have nails like yours 😭💕 mine grow bent, don’t even know how that’s possible but they do 😫

[@thegraytergood]

here are some things that have really helped me 🥹 I used to have nail nubs but doing these things constantly have changed my life:) - Use a gentle file, 180 grit or higher or a glass file, don’t clip or use a cheap abrasive file that shreds your nails - Gloves every single time you’re doing dishes or cleaning, water is so so bad for your nails - Don’t use your nails as tools! Use a spoon to open cans, don’t rip open packages with your nails, etc etc. - Always wear polish or gel, bc it’s like armor for your nails - Round nail shape, square shape tends to break on corners because it’s a stress point (especially with bare nails) - Put on cuticle oil + lotion at night before bed, more cuticle oil during the day if you can

[@emmarodden7178]

@@8thhousemoonrabbit205 thank you!! I’ve been taking biotin for years and a couple years ago started taking biotin + keratin (which I hated to bc of where keratin comes from 😫) and there wasn’t really a difference in my nails. 💔 thought I had more baby hairs for a while with the keratin, but that either leveled off or wasn’t actually happening 😥

I would suggest doing this technique similar to how you would do a basic French with acrylics. On your natural nail build a “U” shape with the pink (leaving space for the white) cure, shape, and then add the natural colored white

[@RihamMustafa]

It's a beautiful idea😍😍😍, but try buffing your nails first with a nail file, then start your design. Might help your color show up more and let your drawing be an easier task cause the polish will find a rough surface to stick to.

[@denelian116]

I prefer French tips, so I buy those stickers that are guides for them. They're cheap and easy to use - but MAKE SURE you have washed and removed all sticky from the stickers before adding a coat
