For some (of which I am a part), the application of nail polish turns out to be more a moment of psychological torture than well-being and relaxation.The color drools, the slightest gesture can screw up the work that has been accomplished for 10 minutes, and the precision that certain techniques (like French) require requires an unimaginable self control.
Fortunately, there are ingenious people on social networks, which have been the mission of finding homemade tips allowing us not to finish in nervous nerves, a pill cotton in hand!
The unstoppable technique of the day?Use a silicone stamping sponge or stamp to draw a French without overflowing.
Silicone sponge and stamping pad: the must for a hand sewn hand
The French Manicure is one of the big summer trends that will even continue at the start of the school year.The thing is that she still asks for a certain precision (small survey: who here is ambidextrous? Nobody?) ...
Suddenly, you had to find a tool capable of being able to do the job.And the soft and bouncing texture of the silicone sponge or the stamping stamp made them the perfect tools to meet our need!
To use them, simply apply a drop of varnish of the color of your choice and press the tip of the nail on the sponge or the stamp.Normally, your finger will slightly "sink" in silicone (without piercing it): that's normal!The elasticity of the material will take the form of the nail and allow you to obtain a French worthy of the name.
If the color is not supported enough, start the gesture again, paying attention to the same so that there is no demarcation between the two passages.
Foam sponge, a much less precise tool
On social networks, we also found a technique that consists in using a Beauty Blender foam sponge to draw a French.But to be completely honest, we were not super convinced ...
Much more absorbent than the stamp or silicone sponge, the foam that does not offer a specific result and comes to "drink" the varnish.One, it is not very hygienic if you want to reuse it to apply your makeup, two, there is a loss of crazy matter, which makes the first passage imprecise and forces you to redo the area with thePoint of the varnish brush ... we pass our turn!
