client wants glittery white tips French manicure look
But I'm deciding which way is going to be best as I don't want a bulky tip and then a ridge?
Any aduvice?
 
I would do the pink base with negligee or whatever you use, cure & top coat, wipe with IPA then do your white tip with cream puff/studio white or whatever you use, cure, then apply a glitter to the white tip & burnish in (I use Lecente, it goes on quite flat) then top coat and your done :) xx

Yes, I do the same as above. If you find that you do get a ridge where the white stops then back fill with clearly pink to level it out. Then top coat & finish.

Thanks ladies
Could I omit the topcoat in between?
i.e.
Base coat, cure,
Clearly pink ,cure
Wipe with IPA
Add white tip , cure
Add glitter then top coat?

Possibly, it just saves getting the glitter stuck above the smile line, if you got any glitter on & it stuck I guess you could just wipe it off with IPA xx
