Step by Step
The four steps behind these glittery colour-blocked French tips come courtesy of OPI, using the Terribly Nice Christmas 2023 colour collection – available via www.opi.com
What you’ll need:
- OPI Natural Nail Base Coat
- Detail brush
- OPI Nail Lacquer in Chill ‘Em with Kindness, Blame the Mistletoe, Five Golden Flings, Put On Something Ice and Black Onyx
- OPI Nail Lacquer Top Coat
DESIGN IDEAS: Why not alternate this design with solid nail lacquer colours, or layer glitter over colour?
Step 1

Prep the nails. Apply one coat of OPI Natural Nail Base Coat and allow to dry. Apply a coat of OPI Nail Lacquer in Chill 'Em with Kindness. Allow to dry. Repeat for coverage.
Step 2

Using a detail brush and OPI Nail Lacquer in Blame the Mistletoe, create a half circle on one side of the tip of the nail. Allow to dry.
Step 3

With the detail brush and OPI Nail Lacquer in Five Golden Flings, apply a triangle of colour at the tip. Create an additional triangle with OPI Nail Lacquer in Put On Something Ice on the opposite side of the nail. Allow to dry.
Step 4

Using the detail brush and OPI Nail Lacquer in Black Onyx, outline the circle and create additional half circles inside the circle, creating a rose. Outline each triangle. Allow to dry. Apply one coat of Nail Lacquer Top Coat. Allow to dry. Apply ProSpa Nail & Cuticle Oil to each cuticle and massage in.
