As a French speaker I was so surprised when you said English isn't your first language!! I could barely tell that you weren't a native speaker. And for a French native speaker, mastering the English accent like that is even more impressive.

In deep level of mental processing part, avoiding recognition itself, and instead, checking the definition/translation of the word in a preffered language and then trying to recall the exact word in a target language make a lot of sense.Because when you are writing or speaking(most difficult parts) the words are not actually gonna pop into your head out of nowhere.You will recall them first by its purpose and function in a sentence, then its definition and then the desired word.

I used to create my own flashcards in BrainScape but it definitely consumed a lot of time - not 15 minutes a day. And this is not time learning but just labouring creating flashcards. Pretty soon one learns them and has to create another deck. Premade packs never worked as well, however - they often lacked good descriptions or other components that would help me and make any card unique.

If you're at c2 im English there is no chamce you can forget it. I suggest spending a little time per day on very hard material like a difficult novel. This will give you a high density of challenging words compared to other material so you don't have to spend as much time studying. That will give you more time to learn French. On another note, learning French will probably improve your English because 30-60% of English words come from French depending on how you count it so you will be improving your English as you learn French; you will get a deeper knowledge of the roots and etymology of most Emglish words.

If there was a way to automatically make the cards I want (not some list of 1000 words) am studying, that would be great. But I can't find that program
