I’m all about nails that look understated but expensive. This gold wave French is my current obsession—soft nude base, tiny chrome lines, and a glassy shine that lasts a week. Friends think I went to a salon. I didn’t.
My Quick Method
I start with a thin coat of sheer milky‑nude gel, cure, then add a second whisper‑thin layer for that blurred nail‑bed look. With a short liner brush, I sketch a delicate S‑curve or micro‑French using a gold chrome gel liner. The key is pressure control—barely touch the brush and let the product glide. Seal with a self‑leveling gloss top coat. Want the exact tools?
Why I Recommend This Kit
The nude shade is universally flattering (never chalky), the gold liner is reflective yet thin enough for precise waves, and the top coat keeps a mirror finish for 7–10 days. Compared with cheaper sets, this one doesn’t chip at day three—and the brush makes clean curves easy even if your hands shake.
Quick tips
- Keep coats thin; cap the free edge.
- Clean sidewalls before curing for razor edges.
- Finish with cuticle oil for that “fresh mani” glow.
