Beaten gold to decorate the fingernails

You need:
1. Nail lacquer in “White”
2. Nail art liner in “Black”
3. Nail art pen in “Black”
4. Nail art liner in “Gold-Glitter”
5. Clear nail lacquer
6. Beaten gold
7. Clear adhesive tape
8. Cutter
9. Tweezers

For preparation pick small pieces of the beaten gold with the tweezers and put it into a small container.

Tip:
We recommend to begin with the thumb, because it has a larger working surface.

Step 1: Clear adhesive tape, the cutter and the tweezers
Cut for preparation a piece clear adhesive tape. Take up the piece of the tape with the tweezers and stick it on the fingernail.

Press with the tweezers the tape firmly at the surface of the fingernail.

The result should correspond approximately to the picture.

Step 2: Nail lacquer in the colour white
Now paint the free fingernail surface with the nail lacquer in the colour white, as left in the pictures shown.

Tip:
Try to apply evenly the colour, so that no irregularities are to be seen.

Tip:
If you have synthetic fingernails you should pay attention that the edge of the fingernail is also painted. This causes a perfect and consistent look of your fingernail.

The result should correspond approximately to the picture.

Note:
Before you continue with step 3, wait until the nail lacquer on the fingernail is dried.

Step 3: Tweezers
Remove carefully with the tweezers the clear adhesive tape, as left in the pictures shown.

The result should correspond approximately to the picture.

Step 4: Clear nail lacquer, the beaten gold and the tweezers
Now set two big drops of the clear nail lacquer on the free fingernail surface.

Take up with the tweezers a piece of the picked gold foil and put it on the damp clear nail lacquer.

Press with the tweezers the gold foil at the surface of the fingernail.

Repeat the procedures.

The motif “Beaten gold to decorate the fingernails” should correspond approximately to the picture.

Note:
Before you continue with step 5, wait until the clear nail lacquer on the fingernail is dried.

Step 5: Nail art liner in the colour black
Now border with the nail art liner in the colour black the gold foils, as left in the pictures shown.

Tip:
Before you use the nail art liner, you should strip the surplus lacquer of the brush at the edge of the bottle. Thus you can draw clean, fine lines.

The motif “Beaten gold to decorate the fingernails” should correspond approximately to the picture.

Note:
Before you continue with step 6, wait until the nail lacquer on the fingernail is dried.

Step 6: Nail art pen in the colour black
Now draw with the nail art pen in the colour black several points below the gold foils.

Step 7: Nail art liner in the colour gold-glitter
Draw with the nail art liner in the colour gold-glitter a curved line below the black points.

Note:
Before you continue with the last step, wait until the nail lacquer on the fingernail is dried.

Step 8: Clear nail lacquer
At the last step you have to paint over the entire fingernail with a clear nail lacquer.

The clear nail lacquer protects the nail art and gives the fingernail more gloss.

After the clear nail lacquer is dried, the nail art motif “Beaten gold to decorate the fingernails” is finished.
