1. Prep and Shape: Start by completing your cuticle care and shaping your nails. Opt for an almond shape for the best results.

2. Base Coat: Apply a sheer nude shade as your base color. One coat should suffice, allowing your natural nail to peek through slightly. If you prefer more coverage, apply two coats.

3. Colorful Tips: Once your base coat is dry, it's time to add some color! Choose a variety of polish colors and apply a different color to each nail. Use a small, thin brush to carefully outline the tips and base of your nails, leaving the middle space empty.

4. Precision Application: Use slow and steady strokes to ensure precise application of the colorful tips. Aim for a bubbly, swooping design to achieve a cute and playful look.

5. Second Coat: After outlining the tips and base, go back in with a second coat of polish to ensure vibrant color payoff. Be sure to cover the edges of your nails to reduce the likelihood of premature chipping.

6. Finishing Touches: Complete the look by applying a quick-dry topcoat for maximum shine and longevity. Don't forget to apply cuticle oil to nourish and hydrate your cuticles.

1. Prep and Shape: Start by completing your cuticle care and shaping your nails into a “squoval” shape for the best results.

2. Base Coat: Apply a bright orange shade to all your nails, except for your ring finger. For the ring finger, apply two coats of a nude shade as the base for the design. Allow each coat to dry fully to ensure brightness and vibrancy.

3. Design: Once your base coat is dry, it's time to add the ice cream-inspired design. Using the orange polish, create drips along the tips of your nails to mimic melting ice cream. These drips should be irregular and slightly curved. 

4. Sprinkles: After creating the drips, add colorful nail polish or nail art sprinkles on top to represent the vibrant sprinkles often found on popsicles.

5. Finishing Touches: Complete the look by applying a topcoat for maximum shine and longevity. Don't forget to apply cuticle oil to nourish and hydrate your cuticles, leaving your nails looking and feeling their best.

1. Prep and Shape: Begin by giving your nails the attention they deserve. Complete your cuticle care and shape your nails into a square or “squoval” shape for optimal results.

2. Base Coat: Apply two coats of a nude shade that closely matches your skin tone as your base color. This will provide a subtle backdrop for the vibrant triangular tips.

3. Triangle French Tips: Once your base coat is dry, it's time to add the focal point of this manicure – the triangular French tips. Using a small thin brush and your chosen polish color, carefully outline the very tips of your nails in a triangular shape. Take your time with slow and steady strokes to ensure precision and accuracy.

4. Second Coat: After outlining the tips, go back in with a second coat of polish to ensure that the color is bright and bold. Don't forget to cover the edges of your nails to prevent premature chipping and maintain a polished look.

5. Finishing Touches: Complete your manicure by applying a quick-dry topcoat for maximum shine and longevity. Don't neglect your cuticles – a nourishing application of cuticle oil will leave your nails looking and feeling their best.
