Prepare your nails.

- Apply a base coat to protect the nails.
2
Apply the base color.
- Choose the deep green nail polish and apply an even coat on all nails, except the accent nail.
- Allow the polish to dry, then apply a second coat for full opacity.
3
Create the accent nail design.
- On the designated accent nail, apply a layer of silver glitter polish.
- While the glitter is still wet, add random gold foils or shapes to create texture.
- Allow to dry fully.

Pro Tips
Always allow each layer of polish to dry completely before applying the next.
Use a fine detailing brush for more precise designs to avoid messy lines.
If you make a mistake, quickly correct it with a clean brush dipped in nail polish remover.
Consider using a matte top coat for a different finish if you prefer a non-glossy look.
