Step By Step Breakdown:

- Sculpt or apply extra-long stiletto nail extensions.
- Apply a sheer nude pink builder gel and cure between coats until the desired opacity is achieved.
- Paint deep V-shaped French tips using an ivory white gel polish.
- Cure thoroughly before applying embellishments.
- Using nail gem gel or thick rhinestone adhesive, strategically place colorful crystals and 3D charms across each French tip.
- Mix different gem shapes, colors, and sizes to create an organic scattered pattern while leaving negative space.
- Secure all embellishments and cure completely.
- Seal around (not over) the larger gems with a fine liner brush and finish with a glossy no-wipe top coat.
