Fools Gold - Laced Gold nail foil transfer, Essence Rose Glam

This is a kinda old transfer foil manicure, so apologies for the crappy photos. This is Laced Gold nail foil transfer over Essence French Glam in Rose Glam.

I was trying to go for a subtly fancy manicure, but I don't think it quite worked out how I imagined!

[Bottle to nail: Essence French Glam in Rose Glam (2 coats)]

I started with two layers of Essence French Glam in Rose Glam, a milky creme/jelly (crelly!). Although it's called Rose Glam, there's barely a hint of pinkness to it, mostly just a neutral cream shade.

The finish was a bit patchy unfortunately, but I figured, hey, I'm gonna slap on a transfer, let's see how we go...

Hmmmm... not really what I was going for! I think the areas between the gold are quite spacey so it doesn't translate well. Would definitely look better with a coloured base, I reckon! Oh well! That's an experiment for next time! ;)
