How to Do the Gilded checkered nail art at Home?

If you’re torn about what nail art to try this late summer/early fall, why not give this “gilded plaid manicure” a shot? Achieve a unique texture in just 30 seconds using a single piece of dental floss. Give it a try if you’re interested!

Step 1: Base Color and Top Coat Application

First, apply two thin coats of coffee-colored gel polish, ensuring even coverage and a translucent finish. Once dry, apply a piano top coat and cure under a UV/LED lamp for 30 seconds. This step creates the foundation for subsequent mirror powder adhesion.

Step 2: Applying Mirror Powder

Once the top coat is dry, quickly apply the gold mirror powder to the nail surface. Press firmly and evenly during application to ensure the powder adheres tightly to the nail, creating a mirror-like metallic shine.

Step 3: Texture Shaping

Apply reinforcement adhesive over the magic mirror powder to secure and protect it;

Next, take an appropriate amount of “Nijie Gel” and flatten it onto the nail surface.

Gently press the floss onto the nail surface, using its linear texture to create diamond-patterned grooves, adding dimension and design flair to the manicure.

Step 4: Adding Finishing Touches

Finally, use tweezers to pick up a few small steel beads and place them at the intersections of the diamond pattern. This adds delicate details to the manicure while enhancing the overall sophistication of the design.

Finishing Touch

Once complete, rotate the nail plate to reveal a shimmering golden luster that shifts with every angle. This manicure technique boasts a straightforward process and stunning results—give it a try if you’re interested.
