Floral French nails
Step by Step
This alternative French step by step comes courtesy of head of education for Pure Nails, Tina Bell, using Halo Create Nail Foil.
Step 1
Apply Halo Gel Polish Rubber Base to a prepped nail and cure for 30 seconds. Make sure you use a clear tip or base layer for this design.
Step 2
Apply Polibuild Precision Gel in the shade Nude as a reverse smile. Sharpen and refine the shape with your file.
Step 3
Using Halo Gel Polish in the shade Fresh Start, apply around the smile, making sure you cover all the edge of the smile line and apply colour into the corners. Don't worry if a little gel polish goes over the smile line as this can be removed later. Use a brush to blend the gel polish and fade it into clear end. Cure for 30 seconds.
Step 4
Apply Halo Create Transfer Gel around the tip and cure for 30 seconds. Apply Halo Create Foil to the tip area.
Step 5
Encapsulate the whole nail with Halo Easibuild Clear. Cure for 30 seconds.
Step 6
Remove the tacky layer and buff into shape. Any residue colour left on the surface area will be removed when you file. Apply Non Wipe Top Coat and cure for 30 seconds.
