Manicure Monday April 21, 2008
So today we tried an at-home French Manicure for Make-up/over Monday. My french manicure kit is just one of those cheapies from the pharmacy. doesn’t last too long but good for cheap thrills.
I watched this instructional vid below from youtube a while back and love the way she does her nails. I got sick of using those little white strips that come with the manicure kit, and much prefer painting on the white bits by hand.
The only tip i can add to the video is use a clear acetone (nail polish remover). the first time i tried this i used an acetone with pink colouring in it, so the white tips i painted on got smudged with pink.
Oh, and tonight, in keeping with the ultra girlie-ness of the occasion, i did this watching Girls of the Playboy Mansion. If you have Sky you could try that too.
