DIY This Easy and Chic Two-Tone Manicure

Instructions:
1. Soak nails in lemon water.
2. File them down.

4. Apply your first color of nail polish to your nails. Add another coat if necessary. Let dry.
5. Color block with tape. We recommend angling your design.
6. Apply your second color and let dry.
7. Peel and reveal!
8. Top with a top coat to seal in your design.
To those old-school French manicures, we have two words: Bye Felicia.
