Do you love dark teal nail designs? I’m a big fan of deep green nail looks, especially in french manicure form.

In this post, you will find dark green French Tip nails using OPI’s new Downtown LA Collection shade, My Studio’s on Spring.

Dark teal nails are the quintessential fall shade - they’re cozy, comforting and unique.

They remind of evergreen shades, the holiday season, and if you’re an Eagles football fan, the football season.

OPI’s Fall 2021 Downtown LA Collection features a dark teal nail polish, called My Studio’s on Spring.

In the My Studio’s on Spring swatches below, this shade is shown in a French Manicure colored tips design with no other colors.

How to create this Deep Teal French Tip Nails design: 

  • Apply 1-2 coats of base coat over the entire nail, in this case, we used OPI's Natural Nail Base Coat.
  • Apply 2 coats of My Studio’s on Spring just to the free tips of the nail, matching the top of your brush to the top of the tip of your nail, then drag to the edge of the nail. Repeat until the entire tip is covered, or up to 3 times.
  • To clean up any uneven lines where the nail bed meets the tip, dip a thin eyeshadow brush in acetone and drag along the top line of tip. Tip: Do this clean up with the nails tipped down to let gravity work with you, allowing any extra paint being removed to fill in the holes in your line.
  • Apply 1 coat of OPI RapiDry Top Coat, then relax and let dry.

Love this shade? Me too!

One of the things I love about french manicures is they help me forget about all the drama online - like the AI revolution, new ways that creators are creating that some people like or don’t like, everything political and beyond.

Colored french manicure nails are just beautiful - they need no introduction and they speak for themselves. They always seem to have a captivating feel; one that helps you forget about everything so you can just fall in love with something beautiful again.
