Step by Step DIY(Do It Yourself) Guide
1
Prepare the nails for painting.
- Use a nail file to shape the nails to the desired length.
- Buff the surface of each nail for smooth application.
- Apply a base coat to protect the natural nail.
2
Apply base colors.
- On two nails, apply two coats of deep burgundy polish, letting each coat dry.
- On the remaining nails, apply two coats of metallic silver polish, allowing each layer to dry completely.
3
Create the nail art.
- Using a detailing brush, paint leaf patterns in gold on the burgundy nails.
- On the silver nails, use the detailing brush to add branch designs with gold polish.
- Optionally, use a dotting tool to add small dots around the designs for added detail.

Finish the design.
- Once all designs are dry, apply a thin layer of clear top coat over each nail.
- Seal the edges to prevent chipping.
- Clean up any excess polish around the nails with acetone and a clean-up brush.
Pro Tips
Ensure each layer is completely dry before applying the next to avoid smudging.
For more intricate designs, practice on a piece of paper before applying it to your nails.
Use nail tape to create sharp lines for a more precise look if desired.
