They give nails that expensive, hand-finished look without any painting skill: a few flakes of gold over a sheer base, a scatter of copper over nude, or a mix of teal and blue for an ocean effect.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eMade for crafts, loved by nail artists\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThese foil flakes are sold for epoxy resin, jewelry and craft work, and they work well as nail decoration.
