Silver Nails - Nail Foils

I experimented with nail foils today.  This one was just a plain silver...  It was my first time, so they turned out a little messy, but practice makes perfect.  So how these work:
1. Make sure your nails are clean and free of an oils
2. Select and trim the foil to your nail shape
3. Peel the foil from the backing and lay the rounded edge against the cuticle
4. Use scissors to cut excess foil
5. Once in place, rub all areas of foil firmly
6. File off any remaining material in a gentle downward motion

They really don't last long, but there fun to wear for a couple of days.  They also peel off pretty easily if you don't like them.
