Simple Nail Designs You Can Do at Home: French Nail Manicure
Going to the salon can be fun, but after awhile it can get to be quite costly. Creating your own simple nail designs at home is not as difficult as you may think. All it takes is a little practice and a few ideas about what you can do with your nails. Think of simple nail designs as a form of art. Like art, you start off with basic shapes and keep adding details along the way.
Simple Nail Designs: French Nail Manicure or Pedicure
French nail manicure
The French nail manicure is one of the easiest of simple nail designs, but following the natural curve of the nail is challenging. First, apply a coat of clear nail polish to each nail. Then take white nail polish and apply it to only the tips of your nails. Some people like to use nail art brushes—those nail polishes in a skinny bottle that come with a skinny brush. It is easier to form a curve with these brushes, but they are not necessary. You can sweep the white nail polish across each nail from left to right. The other option is to apply the white nail polish just like you were applying nail polish to the entire nail. In other words, apply the nail polish the long way but only do the tips. Either way works, and there are now French manicure pens available to make the process even easier. Don’t give up. Do all of your nails and you will be surprised at how well they turn out. They may not be perfect, but most people will be looking at them from a distance. For a pedicure, you can get away with only having nail designs on your big toe. For hands, you can cover any mistakes by purchasing a nail art brush in silver. Run the silver polish along the curve where the clear nail polish meets the white nail polish. This will form a silver line that will hide your mistakes and add an air of sophistication as well. Apply one more coat of clear nail polish and you’re done. You have just achieved one of the most popular simple nail designs-the French nail manicure.
French Nail Manicure with Gems
Nail decals are a simple and easy way to make your nails look professional. To do, give yourself a French nail manicure or pedicure. Pick up one of your nail gems with a pair of tweezers and place it on top of your nail. You can choose to place just one nail decal, or several, on each nail.
