To create this look, paint your nails with a base coat of your chosen pastel color. Then, using a nail art brush or a striping brush, paint a thin line of white polish at the tip of your nail, creating the classic French tip shape. Seal it all in with a top coat, and you're good to go!

Ombré Pastels

For a more gradient effect, try an ombré pastel French tip. Start with a light pastel color at the base of your nail, gradually building up to a darker shade at the tip. This creates a beautiful, seamless blend that's perfect for spring.

Floral French Tips

Spring is all about blooming flowers, and what better way to celebrate than with some floral French tips? These manicures are perfect for those who want to add a touch of nature to their nails.

To create floral French tips, start by painting your nails with a base coat of white polish. Then, using a nail art brush or a fine-tipped paintbrush, paint small flowers or petals at the tip of your nail. You can use any colors you like, but pastels and soft hues work particularly well for spring.
