 Born Pretty Store Nail Foil Transfer comes in a small and cute clear plastic jar with a white screw top lid. The jar is quite light and can be easily carried around in a bag. The nail art foil comes in the form of roll and is a very thin foil with leopard design on its face.

Application of the nail foil is easy but little time consuming than stickers and nail art water decals. Here are the step by step instructions on how to apply nail art foils:

• Cut nail foils into pieces large enough to cover the whole nail.

• Apply a base coat. Here I have used Revlon Nail Enamel in Silver Screen. Let it dry completely.

• Apply nail glue. Make sure you apply a thin layer of glue. Let it dry completely or when it is slightly gloopy or tacky. The key to remember is when the glue turns its color from white to transparent. My glue was already transparent so found it difficult to judge when to apply nail foil.

• Place the foil with face up and rub it using a cotton bud. Do not forget to press it at the edges of the nails.

• Peel off the foil gently. In this case I have not let my glue get dried properly and all I got are the patches.

• Apply a thin layer of top coat. Do not apply lots of top coat else it would shrink the foil badly.

The nail foils look really pretty and unique on my nails. They do not tend to get messy and I love how light they feel on my nails. As I am not so good in applying nail foils, I applied metallic nail paint as base polish to fill up the blanks that were left while peeling off. They lasted on my nails for a good 7-8 days without peeling, dulling or chipping. I absolutely loved how elegant and classy my nails look with these nail foils. I loved the patchy design I ended up with and I got many compliments too :). The nail foil comes off easily using a nail polish remover and does not create a mess.

Rating: 4.8/5

My Tips:
