Step by Step DIY(Do It Yourself) Guide
1
Prepare your nails.
- File and shape your nails to your desired length.
- Gently push back cuticles and ensure nails are clean.

Apply base coat.
- Utilize a base coat to protect nails from staining and enhance polish adhesion.
- Allow it to dry completely.
3
Create the gradient effect.
- Dab a small amount of the soft pink and light blue polish on a makeup sponge.
- Apply the sponge to the nail in a gentle tapping motion to blend colors.
- Repeat until you achieve your desired opacity and gradient.
4
Add gold foil embellishments.
- Using a fine-tip brush, apply a small amount of clear polish where you want the foil to adhere.
- Gently place small pieces of gold foil onto the wet polish.
5
Finish with top coat.
- Once everything is dry, apply a top coat to seal the design and add shine.
- Allow it to dry completely.
Pro Tips
Ensure your base coat is fully dry before applying colored polish to prevent smudging.
For better control while applying the gradient, work in small sections.
Use a clean-up brush dipped in nail polish remover to correct any mistakes.
Experiment with the amount of gold foil according to your preference for a more subtle or bold look.
