Add a little funk to your French with a heady, lava lamp-inspired design like this one. The freeform blobs add whimsy to the deep green base.

A deep French gives you enough space to really play with color, as seen with these peach-to-pink ombré tips. Add in a couple of tiny flower designs, and you’ve got the perfect vacation mani.

Take full advantage of that extra tip space with a dizzying design like these swirls. Don’t try too hard to make anything uniform—variety is key here!

Bring two of the biggest trends (pops of red and animal print) to your nails, wrapped up in a sweet, classic French. We’ll be copying this one ASAP.
Classic Deep French

The beauty of a French manicure is that it truly never goes out of style. It’ll never be passé. The chunky, deep white tips on Kylie Jenner’s nails stay within the confines of a classic French, but proportion play makes it feel fresh.
Pointed Pearls

There’s something inherently chic about a French manicure. It’s elevated and timeless, like red lipstick or a great blowout. To really play up that posh vibe, consider adding something equally as elegant to the look, like these pearl decals.
Strawberry Tips

We can’t stop lusting over these strawberry deep French nails. The 3D detailing and precious white seeds make for a hyper-realistic mani moment, while the French base grounds the look.
Double Magnetic

The only thing better than a magnetic manicure is, of course, a double magnetic manicure. Layering magnetic detailing in a deep French really plays up the visual interest. It almost functions as a color-blocking moment.
Orange Fire

You’re on fire, so why not let the world know with a blazing hot manicure? A deep French offers the flexibility to play with design without having to commit to it full-force, thanks to that elongated tip. The neutral base keeps the look grounded, no matter how flashy the tips might be.
Color Blocked

A deep French striped mani is always a good idea. Take things up a notch by alternating the width of those stripes while using the same color family across the design. The result is cohesive yet varied.
Golden Tips
