How to get burgundy chrome french almond nails at home

  1. Prep: push back cuticles, buff the shine off the nail plate and wipe with alcohol so the base coat grips.
  2. Shape: File the sides in a straight line toward the center and round the tip softly, like the top of an almond.
  3. Apply a sheer milky base and cure it.
  4. Paint a thin French tip with no-wipe top coat only on the tips and under-cure it.
  5. Rub burgundy chrome powder onto the tips — it only sticks where the top coat is.
  6. Clean the edges and seal the whole nail with top coat.
  7. A drop of cuticle oil at the end makes the photo-ready difference.

Pro tip: Because the powder sticks only to the tacky tip, you get a crisp metallic line without painting color.

Burgundy chrome french nails: FAQ

How do you make chrome French tips?

Paint only the tip with no-wipe top coat, under-cure it, then rub chrome powder onto it. The powder won’t stick to the cured nude part.

Are almond nails strong?

They are stronger than stiletto because the tip is rounded, but the narrow tip is more fragile than square. Medium length with gel or builder gel is the sweet spot.

Does burgundy nail polish suit my skin tone?

Blue-based reds and burgundies flatter cool and neutral undertones; on warm or deep skin, choose shades with a brick or brown hint.
