I think her nails are beautiful. Does anyone know what all is involved in her type of manicure? It's an ombre color, pink and sparkly.

I, personally, don't have knowledge on the manicure, but I looked at a QVC video from yesterday of Antonella to get an idea of how her nails looked. I then googled "french fade manicure," and a few video tutorials were included in the search results. You might find them helpful. I, also, noticed a few people on Facebook asked Antonella about her nails, but I didn't see any replies. Hopefully others can give you more specifics, but maybe the tutorials from the google search will help in the meantime. Good luck!
(Edited to add: Try googling "ombre manicure" too.)

There are probably more than 10 ways to skin a cat as there are with these nails. Where I go, they use tips which are painted already and the color is added to the nails. The shop where I once went does it several different ways from painting the whole thing to adding on an acrylic nail and filing it down, painting as they go and some of the girls use acrylics and China glaze with tips,etc. See the tutorials on YouTube.

yuck, I think her nails look awful, not the color, but just to thick and long.

I don't mind the french fade though it would not be my choice but whoever did her nails did an awful job. They get wide once they leave the nail bed and they are super thick. They seriously remind me of when I was in cosmetology school and we learned acrylics, we all had to practice on one another. Of course most of us had never done it before so all of our nails looked awful, really reminds me of how her nails looked when I saw them yesterday.

Also, this isn't nail polish that is used to create that. It is the color of acrylic powder and you can get nude ombre or pink ombre. The nail tech does it by using different colors of acrylic powders.
Here is a sculpted nude ombre. For pink you would use pink acrylic powder instead of nude.

Nope, not a fan of her nails at ALL. I like a clean look like Jennifer's.
