Reverse French manicures give you the freedom to get creative with color. For instance, adding metallic touches is easy – Halpern used a metallic eye shadow brush on their nails just as the polish was drying for this truly unique texture!
Use of rhinestones can quickly add some flare and glamour to your nails, instantly making them more striking and attractive. Nail art stickers may help add this element, or just paint the top part of the nail with glittery shades before applying rhinestones in an overlapping pattern across each nail.
An evil eye design offers a graphic touch. This style can easily be done at both home or a salon – simply paint the lower third of your nail in a darker hue before using binder reinforcement stickers to guide the line of design.
Techniques
Add an eye-catching flair to the popular reverse French manicure trend (or simply keep things interesting) with shimmery or metallic nail polish shades.

Refresh your French manicure by incorporating a pastel orange stripe near the cuticle for an eye-catching summer touch that instantly elevates nail color to another level.

For optimal results make sure that your nails are slightly longer so as to paint closer to them as the design will need space around it for proper execution.
