Get The Look
Step 1 : File nails into the desired length and shape, using a padded file, such as the
Flowery Professional File Catty.
Step 2 : Use the Tweezerman Cobalt Stainless Cuticle Nipper to groom the cuticle.
St ep p 3 : Apply the main nail color on all nails except the ring fingers. Here are two
gorgeous looks: SpaRitual's Nail Lacquer in Idyllic captures the freshness of spring,
whereas OPI's Nail Lacquer in Big Apple Red is a perennial classic.
St ep 4 : Apply the accent color to the ring fingers. Accent colors can be metallic,
glittery or a simple contrasting color.
St ep 5 : An alternative to lacquer on the accent nail is nail art, such as Designer Nail
Art's Heavy Metal Nail Art temporary nail tattoos.
St ep p 6 : Finish with a top coat, such as Seche Vite's Dry Fast Top Coat. ■

Forget the drab, single-color manicure and
overdone all-accented nails. Simply accent the
ring fi ngers to make a statement.
