How to Do French Ombre Nails - Easy DIY Tutorial

Tools and materials:

• Sheer nail polish
• White nail polish
• Top coat
• Cosmetic sponge
• Q-tip
• Acetone

1. Apply a base coat

Use sheer nail polish for this step. Apply two coats and let it dry before you move on to the next step. 

2. How do you do ombre French tip nails?

Apply sheer nail polish and white nail polish next to each other on a sponge.

Gently dab the sponge on your nails, making sure the white polish is the first line on your nail. 

Here’s how it looks after two rounds. Repeat the process for the rest of your nails, making sure to apply fresh nail polish lines on the sponge. 

For whiter nails, apply more white nail polish on the tips, as shown. 

3. Apply top coat

Now, apply your favorite top coat on your nails. This will basically settle the design and give your nail a lovely, sealed-off shine. 

Don’t forget to wrap the tip of your nail, as shown. This little trick will make your nails last longer. 

4. Clean the cuticles

Dab an earbud with some acetone, and carefully clean any excess nail polish around your cuticles. It’s best to do this while your nail is semi-wet so that if acetone gets on your nail, it won’t really mess it up.
