Whimsical Purple French Tips with Leaf Accents

This is a charming twist on the classic French manicure. On square or squoval nails with a sheer pink or nude base, it features crisp French tips in a lovely medium purple. What makes it special are the delicate white leaf or vine patterns painted on one or two accent nails, sometimes accompanied by a tiny purple heart. It’s incredibly cute and fresh. Start with your sheer base. Create the purple French tips using guide stickers or freehand with a steady hand. Then, use a very thin brush and white polish to paint the delicate leaves and stems. A tiny dotting tool can make the small heart. Finish with a glossy top coat.
