Good as Gold Nail Tutorial

About a month ago I worked on a photo shoot where I used imitation gold leaf on the models eyes. So I found myself left with a lot of gold leaf as well as time on my hands, which resulted in this manicure.

Step 1: Paint your nails with a dark base color. I used OPI's My Private Jet

Step 2: Using tweezers rip small pieces of the gold leaf and place them on the tip of your nails. You can manipulate the texture by pinching the gold leaf once you have it placed. 

                                                  
Step 3: Finish off with a clear top coat and your done!
