11 French Tip Nail Designs That Will Have You Running to the Salon This Summer

When it comes to nail trends, it doesn't get much more timeless than a French tip design. Yes, this nail trend has been around for years, and it still remains one of the most popular choices in salons and on social media. As a beauty editor, I can totally see why. Not only does it look incredibly chic, but it pairs well with everything in your wardrobe, and thanks to the neutral base, it's also surprisingly low-maintenance.

You'll find everything from micro French tips, colourful French manicures, modern French manicures and even trending yellow French tip nails. So, what are you waiting for?
