Having beautiful nails is essential — and we’re hardly exaggerating!

And when it comes to the world of nails, the French manicure still counts numerous fans in the world. However mastering the technique of a French manicure is much less obvious. Fortunately, TikTokers aren’t lacking in ideas — and originality — to make our beauty routine easier. How did we ever do anything before!?
A manicure without mistakes or mess
The French Manicure is ultra popular on TikTok, accumulating no less than 35 million views for the hashtag #frenchmanicure alone, keeping in mind that variations on the hashtag are numerous. As a result, beauty tips on the subject have multiplied in recent months to allow nearly anyone to achieve the technique to perfection — and without wasting time.We discovered that it’s possible to do a French manicure in just a few minutes without the risk of a beauty faux pas. In fact, nothing could be easier. All you have to do is apply the base in the classic way, with the color of your choice, and let it dry. The next step, the most complex before the invention of TikTok (yes, really), requires having a Beauty Blender or another object with a slightly soft surface (so that the nail can sink in to a minimum).
Then spread a little bit of the complementary nail polish (white varnish for a classic French manicure or any shade for a more daring French manicure) on the surface in question, then put the tip of the nail in the varnish and press lightly so that the line — or arc of a circle — is created, which is essential for a proper French manicure. All that’s left to do is apply the top coat, and that’s it! It’s easy to do, and very practical for those who are constantly running out of time.
