If you appreciate the timeless elegance of a French manicure but feel it’s a bit too ‘1990s’ for your current vibe, the Reverse French is your modern solution. It is subtle yet striking, offering a high-fashion twist that pairs beautifully with the upscale Boca Raton lifestyle.
You want nail art that stands out without being overly loud, chaotic, or difficult to match with your wardrobe.
By highlighting the base of the nail, this design creates an optical illusion that elongates the nail bed, making it perfect for shorter lengths.
Because the design utilizes negative space or color near the cuticle, regrowth often looks less obvious and more intentional than a standard full-color manicure.
From Cuticle Care to the Perfect Crescent
Your visit begins with a warm welcome at our Boca Raton lounge. We will discuss your vision—whether you want a classic nude with a white crescent, a bold color block, or a glitter cuticle cuff. We check your nail health to determine the best base product.
The secret to a refined Reverse French is impeccable cuticle care. We gently push back and trim the cuticles to create a clean, perfect canvas. This step is vital because the art sits right at the base of the nail, so precision is non-negotiable.
Using a steady hand and fine detail brushes, your technician applies the base color and carefully paints the ‘reverse’ smile line at the lunula (the moon of the nail). We cure the layers using premium LED lights to ensure durability and shine.
We finish the service with a high-gloss top coat to seal the design. Finally, we massage a nourishing cuticle oil and hydrating lotion into your hands, leaving your skin as glowing as your new manicure.
Choose your durability level
Perfect for a quick style change or for those who prefer traditional lacquer. Includes detailed cuticle work, shaping, and the reverse moon design using high-end polish like OPI or Essie.
Our most popular option. Uses UV-cured gel polish for a chip-free, high-shine finish that lasts up to two weeks. The instant dry time means you can grab your keys immediately without smudging the art.
Ideal for clients trying to grow their natural nails. We apply a thicker, strengthening layer of builder gel (BIAB) before applying the reverse french art, providing extra reinforcement against breaks.
Dip your hands into warm, soothing wax to lock in moisture and soften dry skin—highly recommended for Florida sun-exposed hands.
Wear these nutrient-rich gloves during your manicure to infuse the skin with anti-aging collagen and peptides.
Add a modern, metallic sheen to the ‘cuff’ or the base of your Reverse French for an edgy, futuristic look.
A penetrative toughening agent that fuses the nail’s top layers together to improve nail plate integrity under the gel.
