This is normal, right? Had an appointment today and thought it best to put on my “I’m not a total weirdo” front (if I’m asking you a serious question I don’t need you staring at me like I’ve got two heads) and went for a simple light french. The base is Borghese Cannoli Cream, 2 coats over a white base (probably should have gone for 3 but I was running out of time), then used some Kleancolor White for the tips.
The search box below will help if you're looking for a specific polish, otherwise you can use the links further down the sidebar to browse by polish color, theme, brand, whatever!
Have an Idea? I looooove getting ideas from people for what to do for the more intricate nail designs — use the email link up above to shoot me a note and I'll add your idea to the list! (because yes, there's a list, but it's AWESOME.)

Not strange! In fact, this is my idea of “mannequin” nails. I think it makes fingers and nails look longer. One of my favorite manis to do, and you pull it off so well!
Wow! This looks so elegant
so pretty:)
Hahaha..better safe than sorry!! yeah we need to sometimes have normal nails for the sake of others not popping their eyes out!!
I love the base colour!
Very classy!
Ooh, I like it. I’ve never opaqued-out any of my sheers for french mani’s, but I think I might give it a whirl.
You always have such great ideas. ^___^
I agree, really elegant : )
Must have been a really important appointment-cause for me-I’d still wear my freaky nails!! I do love a classic french though-very elegant-but so NOT NERDY!
this is strange, i’m used to a much more colors on your nails ;-D
Interesting–like Aren says, I never thought to do a white base under a French mani sheer.
I know, it’s super weird, right?! My nails felt totally foreign… working on something with a ton of color right now.
Great post!
I like french manicures so much better with an opaque base than a sheer one! good job! lol
