Tribal French Mani from essie

Strong, asymmetric shapes and angles reign supreme in this Tribal French Mani from essie. A petal soft lilac serves as the base layer, while a deep red and jade green add the accent detail of the design. Michele Saunders, an L.A. based manicurist known for her for A-list celebrity following, breaks it down!

Tips* Make sure to let Russian roulette dry completely before moving onto the tip. Use a small brush dipped in polish removed to tidy up.
