olympic inspired french mani
August 6, 2012 § 8 Comments
in celebration of the olympics i decided to adorn my nails with a fun-fresh french manicure!
you will need:
nail polish colors in blue, yellow, black, green, red + white
clear top coat
nail clippers
nail file and buffer block
to do:
1. begin by cleaning nails in soapy water, dry thoroughly
2. gently push back cuticles
3. trim nails to a semi-short length
4. lightly file and buff to smooth the surface and edges
5. paint two coats of the white polish, allow to dry
6. continue with applying the different colors to each nail tip, allow to dry
7. finish with the clear top coat and allow to dry completely
8. team usa!!!!!!
Love this Kristina! And the colours are perfect!
Happy Monday Hun xoxo

Really really cute Kristina – you have a very steady hand to be able to do that. Maybe a medical profession is in your future!
Oh my gosh, I absolutely adore this! What a great idea
This is a great idea and love the french nails, Kristina! And again, you have such beautiful nails.. Do you do nail care by yourself (like put an oil etc)? Seriously you can be a hand model! xo akiko

Thanks Akiko! Yes, I take care of my own – moisturize moisture moisture + coconut oil + because I can’t stand the looks of cuticles, I’m constantly grooming my nails every week it seems!! xx
I’m trying to see this post and it won’t let me for some reason. I see the “how to” part but not the photos. I’ll try back in a bit. Dying to see them!
I love how you did this! It’s simplicity (otherwise it could look so gaudy) is supurb!!
Okay can you do mine?!
