How to choose
A French manicure is a timeless classic: a soft base with a white tip. With Striplac you do it yourself at home, using the same lamp and top coat as your regular Striplac.
How to choose:
- Base: French Rose 486 or French White Milky 201, for a soft, natural base.
- Tip: Tip Whitener 484 for the white edge.
- All in 1: the French manicure starter kit, if you don’t have Striplac at home yet.
Paint the white tip from the side towards the centre of your nail and keep the line thin, it looks most natural. Want a different base? Browse all Striplac colours. The full step-by-step plan is under Striplac.

Who helps you?
I'm Ellen, the Ellen behind LLN.beauty (say it as Ellen beauty). Beauty therapist since 2003, with my online beauty store since 2008. In 2019 I trained in orthomolecular therapy at KPNI, to tackle skin problems from the inside as well.
For years I treated clients in my salon. I stopped, because a treatment only works for a short while. Lasting results come from the basics you do yourself at home. That's why I now help you with a routine you'll actually stick to.
