Step by Step DIY(Do It Yourself) Guide
1
Prepare the nails.
- Start by filing and buffing the nails to create a smooth surface.
- Push back the cuticles gently using a cuticle pusher.
- Apply a base coat to protect the natural nails.
2
Create the gradient base.
- Apply the gold nail polish to the base third of the nail.
- Apply the pink nail polish to the middle third of the nail.
- Apply the blue nail polish to the tip of the nail.
- Use a makeup sponge to blend the colors together where they meet.
3
Add glitter and foil accents.
- Using tweezers, carefully place glitter pieces onto the still-wet polish.
- Use a dotting tool or toothpick to add small dots of foil or additional glitter where desired.
4
Seal the design.
- Once the design is dry, apply a top coat to seal in the design and add shine.
- Use a small brush dipped in nail polish remover to clean up any excess polish around the cuticles.
Pro Tips
Allow each layer of polish to dry before applying the next to avoid smudging.
Experiment with different colors for a personalized gradient effect.
Use a quick-dry top coat for faster results without compromising the shine.
For an easier cleanup, apply tape around the cuticles before starting the design.
