Mani of the Week: French Mani Remix with Revlon Gel Envy

One of my favorite Fall nail shade’s is purple. To me, she does no wrong (yes, SHE). So for this mani of the week, I’m taking my top two purples out for a spin to show you an easy, fun twist on the French Manicure.

Supplies:

Revlon ColorStay Gel Envy, Up the Ante
Revlon ColorStay Gel Envy, Winning Streak
Revlon ColorStay Gel Envy, Diamond Top Coat
Reinforcements *you can buy them at any office supplies store!
Scissors

Tutorial:

Step 1: Cut your reinforcements in half and place one half in the middle of your nail, hole side down. Make sure the sides are really stuck down.

Step 2: Take your lighter purple (Revlon Gel Envy, Winning Streak) and paint it above the reinforcement arch – you don’t need a base coat with this polish! Then take your darker purple (Revlon Gel Envy, Up the Ante) and paint it in the little circle at the base near your cuticle.

Step 3: Carefully remove the reinforcement (I prefer to do this with tweezers).

Step 4: Wait a few minutes before sealing with the Revlon Gel Envy Diamond Top Coat!

To get my ombre-esque look, alternate the colors on the top and bottom of the nails on each finger. Then, voila! You’ve got yourself a suuuuuper cute French mani remix.
