Step by step: deep plum chrome french nails

  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 straight, then round the tip evenly so it mirrors the shape of your cuticle.
  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 deep plum 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. Finish with cuticle oil once everything is dry.

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

Deep plum 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.

What is the difference between oval and almond nails?

Oval tips are evenly rounded; almond tips taper to a softer point. Oval is more natural and a bit stronger.

Does deep plum 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.
