NOTW: Classic French Tips

A basic french manicure is always classic and sophisticated. Whenever I get tired of wearing colors, or I just can't decide on one, I switch back to this. Its so easy to do, if you have the Kiss Nail Artist polish in White. It has a skinny brush, so it makes painting the white tip really simple. If you have trouble, try using french tip nail guides to help get the perfect line, or you can just use tape. This is optional, but if you want that flawless look, I suggest using a sheer polish that is a skin color that looks most like your nails. I used Essie's Pink Glove Service before applying the white tips. It looks very pink the bottle, but it's actually a sheer skin tone. Finish off with Seche Vite's Fast Dry Top Coat for a glossy look.

One of my first video's was a french manicure, which you can check out here. I am warning you now though..it is not the best. Let me know if you want to see an updated video on that, with better quality.

Check back soon for a Valentine's Day Makeup & Hair tutorial to go along with this :)

DIY/VIDEO: Dye Your Hair at Home & L'Oreal Hair Color Review


This is the before and after. I had used this dye about a month and a half before the "before" picture was taken. I also did not cover it as evenly that time, so that is why there is blonde showing through. As you can see in the "after" the blonde is covered, and the color is exact with the box. 


These to images above were taken after about 7 weeks of color. As you can see, the color still looks great, just lighter. The roots are not even very visible, and none of the blonde has come back.
Watch the video for an in depth review and demo!

You can find L'oreal Healthy Look Creme Gloss Color at drugstores, or on Amazon for around $8, here.
