French Manicure Sets

You can buy a french manicure set or you can put one together yourself. Putting together your own french manicure kit can be a little cheaper than buying one that has been created for you plus you can choose your own color of nail polish that way. Sometimes though French manicure sets do go on sale in department stores, which is worth as buying the nail guides can get expensive. Usually though you are just paying for something unnecessary like a bag for the manicure kit to go into.

It is easy to get that natural, clean look for your fingernails. To put together your own manicure set all you need is opaque or nude nail polish, the basic manicure tools, nail guides and white nail color.

Step one to doing this properly is to get two nail colors. The classic choice is bright white with a sheer or pastel. However you can use a bright color and even reverse the colors so the bright color is on the tip and the body of the nail is painted white.

You should push back your nail cuticles as well as buff and shape the nail bed and tips. You should then apply the nail guides, which are like sticky pieces of tape to use as a guide for painting your nails. Make sure the tip of the nail is painted white or whatever color you have selected.

Once your nail appears to have dried you can remove the guides and then paint the rest of the nails with your sheer or opaque color. It is easiest of course to simply choose a sheer color and paint over the entire look. If you are not sure how to do this it might be a good idea to get it done professionally so you get a lesson in how to do it before you buy a french manicure kit.
