Tutorial: Asymmetric French Manicure

Wow! I think I'm in love-- with Scotch Tape manicures! Inspired by Chloe's Nails, this super easy and cute look can be achieved by anyone! Below is my variation of the design. Please excuse my hideously short nails.. I just stopped biting about two weeks ago, and I'm in the process of growing them out.

Step one: Start out with a completely dry base color. I used Sally Hansen Complete Salon Manicure in "Shell We Dance?".

Step two: Place plain ol' Scotch Tape on the bottom two-thirds of your nail, make sure it's crooked! Note: Stick the tape on your palm about three times so when placed on your nail, it doesn't pull the base polish.

Step three: Paint over the one-third of your nail not covered by tape. I used the Sally Hansen Hard as Wraps in "Berry Frost". It doesn't matter if you paint over the tape.. You are removing it anyway.

Step four:Remove the tape immediately after your nail tip is covered. And viola! A cute, quirky, asymmetric French manicure!

Good Luck!
