So, my nails have grown a lot so I could finally make some French tips :D I've been waiting for this for a while now. I'm glad my nails have grown so I could make this tutorial. I forgot to make photo's after step 2, so I've written down the tutorial. And yes, more glitters!

How I did it
1. Use a basecoat
It's good for your nails! This makes sure your nails don't get another color when you remove the nail polish! I used 2 in 1 ridge filler & base coat of HEMA.
2. Make a French tip.
I've used a white color, however. I think you can decide which color you want to use. But I think white is the best color. I used La Femme Beauty White 28 which I bought at Big Bazaar..
3. Use a tip painter to make 'leaf' strokes
I used a black color, because if I would have used white, you wouldn't have seen it because of the French tip. I used Janet Paris Nail Star 55 to make the strokes. I bought it at Big Bazaar.
4. Use a glitter tip to fill in the lines between the strokes
I used golden glitter to make it look more 'elegant' of course you can use any color because I used a white tip and black strokes. I used Janet Paris Nail Star 337 which I bought at big bazaar
5. Apply a top coat.
This will finish the total and make everything look all shiny~

It took me a while to do this, because the brand La Femme Beauty dries very slow with my nails. But I think you can do this in less then 30 minutes if you use nailpolish that dries fast on your nails ;P

ps. Just found something funny xD On my other hand, I did the same, but then the other way (mirror), when I put my hands together in the pose of this photo, the nailart on my nails form wings ;P Lol, Trilly being her silly self again XD

Thank you very much ^^ I was thinking whether I would use gold glitters or silver, but because of the nice weather in the Netherlands, I wanted to use gold :P

lol, I don't think we have a store like that XD But I will just start hunting today :P If I can't find them in the mall, I will just order them online on ebay :P It wasn't that expensive, $ 1,55 or something for 5 wheels and the shipping was also free XD
