It can be adapted to just about any shape\u2014almond, square, and everything in between\u2014and every color. You can add designs or 3D accents. It works for just about every season and any holiday. It can even be reversed. Simply put: There&#8217;s nothing the French manicure can&#8217;t do.\n<\/p>\n<p id=\"mntl-sc-block_2-0\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block beauty-sc-block-html mntl-sc-block-html\"> In fact, the design is so versatile, it can even fly in the face of its very definition. When one thinks of a French manicure, one thinks of a nude base and a white (or colorful, or embellished) tip. But as it turns out, you can easily use the same color, albeit in different <em>tones<\/em>, and still get a gorgeous effect. Need proof?

It can be adapted to just about any shape\u2014almond, square, and everything in between\u2014and every color. You can add designs or 3D accents. It works for just about every season and any holiday. It can even be reversed. Simply put: There&#8217;s nothing the French manicure can&#8217;t do.\n<\/p>\n<p id=\"mntl-sc-block_2-0\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block beauty-sc-block-html mntl-sc-block-html\"> In fact, the design is so versatile, it can even fly in the face of its very definition. When one thinks of a French manicure, one thinks of a nude base and a white (or colorful, or embellished) tip. But as it turns out, you can easily use the same color, albeit in different <em>tones<\/em>, and still get a gorgeous effect. Need proof?

It can be adapted to just about any shape\u2014almond, square, and everything in between\u2014and every color. You can add designs or 3D accents. It works for just about every season and any holiday. It can even be reversed. Simply put: There&#8217;s nothing the French manicure can&#8217;t do.\n<\/p>\n<p id=\"mntl-sc-block_2-0\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block beauty-sc-block-html mntl-sc-block-html\"> In fact, the design is so versatile, it can even fly in the face of its very definition. When one thinks of a French manicure, one thinks of a nude base and a white (or colorful, or embellished) tip. But as it turns out, you can easily use the same color, albeit in different <em>tones<\/em>, and still get a gorgeous effect. Need proof?
