Step by Step DIY(Do It Yourself) Guide
1
Prepare your nails.
- File your nails to the desired shape and length.
- Buff the nails gently to create a smooth surface.
- Push back cuticles and clean nails with alcohol wipes.
2
Apply base colors.
- Apply a base coat to protect your nails.
- Paint a layer of nude or pale pink polish as the base and let it dry completely.
3
Create French tips.
- Using white polish, paint the tips of your nails with a thin striping brush for precision.
- For a clean edge, use guide strips if needed.
4
Add gold details.
- Use a thin striping brush to paint gold lines just below the French tips.
- Apply small golden studs and embellishments using nail glue to create a pattern.
5
Finish the design.
- Seal the design with a top coat for shine and to secure the embellishments.
- Clean off any excess polish around the nails with a cotton swab dipped in nail polish remover.
Pro Tips
Work on one nail at a time when placing embellishments to ensure the adhesive does not dry out.
If you don't have gold studs, gold nail stickers can be a great alternative.
Apply multiple coats of top coat over the embellishments to ensure they stay in place longer.
Ensure each layer of polish is dry before applying the next to avoid smudging.
