Supplies You'll Need

  • Blush Pink Gel Polish
  • Base and Top Coat (Glossy, No-Wipe)
  • Gold Nail Foil Sheets
  • Nail Foil Transfer Gel/Glue
  • UV/LED Curing Lamp
  • Nail Cleanser/Isopropyl Alcohol

How To Recreate It

  1. Begin with nail preparation: shape, buff, and cleanse the nails thoroughly.
  2. Apply a thin base coat and cure under a UV/LED lamp as directed.
  3. Apply two thin, even coats of blush pink gel polish, curing after each coat.
  4. Apply a thin layer of foil transfer gel only on the areas where you want the gold accents. Cure this layer fully.
  5. Firmly press a piece of gold foil onto the tacky surface of the transfer gel, then quickly peel it away to leave a distressed gold deposit.
  6. Seal the entire design with a glossy top coat, making sure to cap the free edge, and cure for a final time.

Expert Tip

For an organic, 'gilded' look, tear the gold foil into small, irregular pieces before application. Press them on sparsely to avoid overwhelming the delicate pink base.

Try These Variations

  • Reverse French: Apply the blush pink to the entire nail and add a delicate gold foil crescent along the cuticle line.
  • Matte Finish: Use a matte top coat over the blush pink before applying the foil glue for a striking texture contrast.
  • Subtle Gradient: Create a soft gold glitter gradient from the tip fading down over the blush pink base instead of using foil.

Aftercare Tips

  • Moisturize your hands and nails frequently to maintain skin health.
  • Be gentle with your nails for the first 24 hours after application as the polish continues to fully harden.
  • Avoid prolonged exposure to hot water, like in saunas or hot tubs, which can weaken the gel.
  • Schedule regular fills or removals every 2-3 weeks to maintain nail health.

Safe Removal

  • 1.Gently file the shiny top coat off the nail surface to break the seal.
  • 2.Soak a cotton ball in pure acetone, place it on the nail, and wrap it securely with aluminum foil.
  • 3.After 10-15 minutes, gently push off the softened gel with a cuticle pusher or orangewood stick.
