Recreate this sheer gloss look 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 straight, then round the tip evenly so it mirrors the shape of your cuticle.
  3. Apply a ridge-filling base coat.
  4. Paint two thin, even coats of sheer pink.
  5. Finish with a high-gloss top coat, capping the free edge.
  6. Massage in cuticle oil to make the manicure look salon-fresh.

Pro tip: Cap the free edge (run the brush along the tip) with every coat — it stops early chipping.

Sheer pink sheer gloss nails: FAQ

How do I make my manicure last longer?

Prep the nail (remove oils), use thin coats, cap the tips and reapply top coat every 3–4 days.

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 sheer pink nail polish suit my skin tone?

Pick a nude or pink one or two shades lighter or darker than your skin for a “your nails but better” look; add a warm hint on olive skin.
