I reckon I could signal an aeroplane from a deserted island with the sun reflecting off these nails. How cool do they look!!
Clearly these are some foils. A pinky peach colour, applied over two coats of Ulta3 Romance. The lines on the nails form naturally because of the type of foil and how it curves around the nail. I have really curvy nails, so if you nails are flatter, then you wouldn't see as many lines.
Here are the same foils in the shade.
This is the foil that I used. In the shade you can see that it is a peach coloured holographic metallic.
The foil and my thumb nail in the sun.
This was just awesome, but... I thought I would test out comments that you MUST apply a top coat otherwise these just disappear. Its true. You MUST apply a top coat. I can't stress that enough. I didn't cause I loved the absolute holoness of the finish, and within three hours this was nothing more that a few metallic flakes on my nails. Of course you will have to experiment with top coats to find one that wont wrinkle and take the holo finish away.
So far I have tested Ulta3 top coats and Seche Vite and neither of those work well with foils. Australis Top and Base coat worked ok.
