35+ Ideas For Gorgeous French Tip Nails With Diamonds

French tips are solid white and are usually laid over pale pink or nude polish to create a French manicure.

The soft coloring of the traditional French manicure mimics our natural nail, which makes it a great choice for a daily manicure.

But French tips can also be decorated with glitter or diamonds for some extra je ne sais quoi.

French tip nails can be done on natural nails, as long as your nails at least extend over the edge of the fingertip. If you prefer your nails longer, then solid white tips can be applied as part of an acrylic set.

French tip nails are a great, natural-looking option for a manicure or pedicure, which is part of the style’s long-lasting appeal and have been sported by fashionistas, celebs, brides and everything in between consistently since the 1930’s!

French tips were traditionally square, but these days the nail can be shaped any way you prefer – Square, squoval, pointed, coffin, round or almond, all look equally fabulous styled with French tips. The neutral tones of a French manicure or pedicure lend themselves to any outfit or occasion, while looking effortlessly glam.

Timeless and chic, French tip nails are always in style, but French tip nails with diamonds are a popular choice for bridal nail sets.

How To Do French Tip Nails with Diamonds at Home

Ready to get going and give yourself a set of French tip nails with diamonds? Remember, when it comes to doing your nails yourself, great prep is your best friend!

Clean your nails with a nail polish remover for a grease-free base to work from. Then you can file and shape your nails as required, paying attention to creating a smooth edge with a buffer to smooth out any ridges.

Push your cuticles back to elongate your nails and use a good quality cuticle oil or cream to keep them soft. Before you apply polish, always wipe over each nail with some extra remover to ensure you get rid of any residue from the filing.

French tips can be a bit of a learning process if you haven’t attempted them before, so we recommend starting simple with shorter nails with a squared off edge, think ‘squoval’.

Choose a light pink or nude for your base color, and apply in two or three thin coats, allowing each to dry completely before you paint on your white tip – you don’t want to be working on top of a smudged base!

Carefully sweep over the sleek white polish on the very tip of the nail, using a thin striping brush if you can get one, starting with a very thin line and adding until you get the desired tip length.

Carefully wipe away any errors with nail polish remover on a q-tip.

Once dry, it’s time to add your diamonds! Add a layer of clear polish and while it’s still tacky, use a toothpick to pick up your diamond and place into the clear polish. Once all diamonds are set in place where you want them, allow the polish to dry and add another lick of clear polish to keep the diamonds in place and minimize chipping to make your set last longer.

Et voila! Perfect French tips with diamonds.
