This style should be familiar to everybody. In this case the tips are polished white and the nail bed is usually polished pink, beige or nude. To get the style first you should do a regular manicure: clip the nails, file them, treat the cuticles, nip them if necessary and maybe buff the nails. This might help the polish to adhere better. Once you are dome with this, you should decide what colors to use. Usually women decide this based on the sin tone that they have to achieve a natural looking manicure.

When you know what colors you will be using you should apply a layer of base coat first to protect the nails from the damaging effects of the nail polish and to offer a better adherence for the polish. Then you should take the nail guides and stick them on the nails.

If you feel confident enough to draw the smile lines by hand, you could also do so and then you should skip this step. In case you use the nails guides you should make sure that you stick them well so that no nail polish will be able to get under it. Then polish the tips white and wait a bit for them to dry. Then you should remove the nail guides, but be careful, because if the polish isn’t dry enough, it might smudge and it might also happen that you pull off the polish with the guide.

Then you should polish the entire nail with the color of your choice. The tips should be polished too, to get a more natural look. You should wait for the polish to dry and once it has dried you should apply a layer of top coat. This will protect the manicure that you worked so hard with. To make the manicure last you should apply a layer of top coat on a daily basis.

I think this is a very easy manicure and you could self French manicure anytime you want without any problems or difficulties.
