To get this very delicate looking style, all you need to do is apply a base coat or a light nail polish to the nails.

Then with a giant sweeping motion, drag a darker colour down the middle part of the nail and this gives you the contoured effect people are lusting after.

Then, just like you would apply a highlighter to your cheekbones, use a topcoat with not too much matte to add a glimmering sheen to the nails.
