WOW! They`re fantastic.
I`m never any good with foiling, it never goes on evenly and I always end up with patches. I have much better results with foil leafing but I`d like a smooth surface like that

They are Gorgeous!

I have just bought some foil a bit like that?
But have never worked with foil before and mine never looked anything like that when i done it. What a mess i made. lol

I love these nails they look fabulous.

Oh well back to the drawing board, am going to have another go now i have seen these.


luv 'n' hugs

Thanks guys for all your compliments.

Ok, here is how i did them....

My nails already had a clear brisa gel on them, so buffed it back.......applied Violet Bio Sculpture to the tips........cured for two minutes..........then pressed the matt side of the Opal Bio Sculpture foil onto the tip (didnt wipe off the sticky layer of the Vioet Gel) pressed down the foil.....and scratchet the sufrace of the foli with my cuticle pusher then removed the foil from the nail and applied a clear layer of Brisa Gel and then Brisa Finishing GLoss.

I tried the opal foil over the Brisa White Gel paint, but it didnt work very well at all. Bio sculpture gel seems to have the right amount of 'stickyness' after curing for the foil to adhere. I also tried the opal with Bio Sculpture French, that worked better. Here is the link for that one.....
