To clean the nails, make a soapy bath or with sea salt. Carefully remove the cuticle with a special spatula and then remove it, as well as all the burrs. If you want to cut the nails, then do it before steaming in the bath.

But we will consider the technique more complicated and make a french with a bow on the nails. To do this:
- Cover the nails with the main color, for example, cream or pale pink. Allow to dry;
- Place the stencils just below the joint edge of the nail, where the smile line is, and paint it with black or white color;
- Using a thin brush, start painting the bows just above the cuticle, where the so-called lunula is located.You can make a bow in any variation - simple or more complex;
- It can be drawn in clear lines with white color or framed with dots;
- If desired, complement your bows with small rhinestones;
- Repeat the design on several or all nails;
- After drying, cover the nails with a fixer, and moisten the cuticle with special oil.
This design can be made with the help of ordinary varnishes and gel variants.
The advantage must be given to the second, since they are more resistant and will hold rhinestones that you can use more closely.
