Step By Step Breakdown:

  1. Prep the natural nails by pushing back the cuticles, buffing the nail plate, and applying dehydrator and primer.
  2. Apply long stiletto extensions and refine the shape.
  3. Apply a sheer nude pink builder gel base and cure until smooth.
  4. Paint crisp white French tips with a deep smile line and cure.
  5. Using a dotting tool, create evenly spaced black polka dots across each white tip and cure.
  6. With a fine liner brush, paint a thin bright yellow outline along the French smile line where the nude base meets the white tip.
  7. Cure thoroughly and refine any uneven details if needed.
  8. Seal the entire manicure with a glossy no-wipe top coat and cure completely.
  9. Finish with cuticle oil for a hydrated, salon-quality manicure.
