It’s officially “tortie season.”
What I love about tortoise nails are their versatility, she adds.
It looks great as a full nail design, half moon, and also French.

Its a design that goes with any outfit or style.
Want to follow suit?
Weve got a full tortoiseshell manicure tutorial ahead.
Trim, file, and buff so every nail is the same length and shape.
Finish with a base coat.
Dont wait for it to dry before moving onto the next step.
The more imperfect, the better.
Cure under a gel lamp (or allow your nails to fully dry).
The ink does not need to be cured, but it does need to dry.
Finish with a glossy top coat.
