While its popularity is rising again, achieving that perfect French look is still easier said than done—especially at home. Crisp smile lines, symmetrical arches, and product control all require a steady hand and the right tools. One wrong swipe and your sophisticated set can suddenly look sloppy. Even seasoned pros know that achieving salon-worthy results takes more than just patience; it takes precision.

Some trends never really go out of style—they simply wait for their moment to shine again—and the French manicure is one of them. Once a go-to for brides and early-2000s minimalists, the iconic white-tip look is back on everyone's radar, from red carpets to TikTok tutorials. While the classic style is a staple, we’re now also seeing a more modern approach with micro tips, bold color swaps, and reverse designs. The French manicure has stepped out of its conservative past and into a new era of chic.
The good news? There’s a new French nail kit designed to take the guesswork out of the process and help you achieve flawless results. Whether you’re a beginner or a seasoned pro looking to speed up salon sets, the new Le French Manicure Kit from Morgan Taylor will give you the perfect pink-and-white every time. The key is the French Tip Nail Guides that are included in each box. The tacky—but not too sticky that it removes the polish underneath—guides allow you to create that perfect smile line even with a regular polish brush. No extra tools needed. Start with the traditional pink and white, and then branch out to other colors. The only limit is your own creativity!
Step By Step
1. Apply a thin coat of Morgan Taylor Stick With It Long-Wearing Base Coat (not included in kit).
2. Apply 1-2 thin coats of pink Tutus & Tights, allowing it to dry for a few moments in between coats. Allow the final coat to dry completely.
3. Apply the French Tip Guide on the nail—at the natural smile line for a classic look or closer to the free edge for a micro French.
4. Polish the tip of the nail with white Arctic Freeze, and allow it to dry completely.
5. Remove the guide from the nail, apply Morgan Taylor Make It Last Long-Wearing Top Coat (not included in kit) or your favorite Morgan Taylor top coat, and allow it to dry. Finish with Morgan Taylor Remedy Renewing Cuticle Oil.
