Recreate this gold foil look at home

  1. Prep: push back cuticles, buff the shine off the nail plate and wipe with alcohol so the base coat grips.
  2. Shape: File the sides in a straight line toward the center and round the tip softly, like the top of an almond.
  3. Apply base coat and two coats of nude beige.
  4. While the last coat (or a sticky gel layer) is still tacky, press on small flakes of gold foil with tweezers.
  5. Smooth them down and seal with one or two layers of top coat.
  6. Finish with cuticle oil once everything is dry.

Pro tip: Use two coats of top coat over foil so the flakes don’t catch on hair or sweaters.

Nude beige gold foil nails: FAQ

How do you apply nail foil flakes?

Press the flakes onto a tacky layer (gel or nearly dry polish) with tweezers or a silicone tool, then seal with top coat.

Are almond nails strong?

They are stronger than stiletto because the tip is rounded, but the narrow tip is more fragile than square. Medium length with gel or builder gel is the sweet spot.

Does nude beige nail polish suit my skin tone?

Pick a nude or pink one or two shades lighter or darker than your skin for a “your nails but better” look; add a warm hint on olive skin.
