Fake a French Manicure With Chi Chi Spenderella Nail Polish


On the nails this colour makes the nail beds pink and the tips of the nails white. This makes faking a french manicure simple!





Steps for a quick manicure or pedicure

1. Remove any existing nail polish from the nails.

2. Apply some nail cream or cuticle remover to the cuticles (either will do).

3. While the nail cream or cuticle remover is softening the cuticles shape your nails (I prefer squoval as in the photo).

4. With a cuticle stick push your cuticles back to tidy up the nails (Don't cut your cuticles it is a protective barrier!).

5. Prep your nails for nail polish by giving them a quick buff with the rough side of a buffing block. This helps the nail polish adhere to the nail better than if the nails were smooth.

6. Give your nails a quick clean with a swipe of nail polish remover on each to remove any residue from the nails.

7. Apply one coat of Chi Chi Spenderella and let it dry for a couple of minutes (Coats should not be too thick).

8. Apply a second coat of Chi Chi Spenderella.

9. Once nail polish is dry massage some more nail cream into your cuticles to keep them conditioned (I skip this step a lot as you can see my dry cuticles in the photo, lol).


Enjoy your fake french manicure :)
