Monochromatic Nail Tutorials

The YSL Tuxedo Manicure Can Be Replicated in a Step by Step Process

— February 11, 2013 — Pop Culture
The YSL tuxedo manicure has been made in the exact image of the label's Le Smoking Suit. Much like the velvet black menswear pieces, the nail style features dual shades of black, placing one upon the other.

The luxury label debuted the tuxedo manicure during the showcasing of pieces from its last season. It has since become a hit and veritable staple among models, DIY experts and followers of the brand. This tutorial adds to its fashionable klout via blogger Lilith Moon's seven step process. While she used dark tones to give off the layered look, one that can dry and sit in under three minutes, viewers can follow the beauty experts instructions while using a myriad of colorful lacquers.
