Instructions

  1. Small priti nyc chrysanthos 1

    Start by painting you nails with the metallic gold nail polish.

  2. Small foil tip how to 2

    Apply the mattifying top coat. I used Picture Polish g'day matte, but other brands include OPI Matte Top coat and Essie Matte about you.

  3. Small foil tip how to 3

    Get your foil glue and gold foil strips ready.

  4. Small foil tip how to 4

    Apply a thin layer of nail foil glue just to the french tip of your nail. When it's first applied it will have a milky appearance. Wait about 5 minutes for it to dry and ensure it has gone completely transparent.

  5. Small foil tip how to 5

    Gently press the nail art foil onto the glue with the gold side up. The foil will stick to the glue and the clear backing film will pull away.

    Repeat on each nail. Apply a nail foil sealer to just the tips of your nails. I use Picture Polish Revolution. Water based top coats work best, regular top coats can cause the foil to crease.
