We see advertisements for nail polishes featuring gleaming reflective polish on the model's nails. Sally Hansen's popular nail polish brand has a line of metallic colors, and though they work well, they are not by any means as reflective as they are in the advertisement. If you're looking for a truly reflective and perfectly metallic nail color, you will not find a nail polish that will create the exact look you need. But there is a solution to your problem - look no further than nail foils. The technique is very simple and rather inexpensive:

Purchase foil, the special glue, and a top coat reserved for foils to lengthen wear. Nail foil comes in many different colors and can be purchased at low prices. Dollar Nail Art (http://www.dollarnailart.com/cat_pages/foils.html) sells five feet of foil for a dollar. If you order six dollars worth of foils, you will automatically receive a free adhesive. For only seven dollars you could have six different colors of foil, adhesive, and a top coat to make your manicure last longer. Other sites that sell foil are Trans Design, Inc (http://www.transdesign.com) and Nail Art Plus (http://www.nailartplus.com/nail_foil.html).

Se trata de una uña postiza plástica esmaltada con un efecto cromado espejo cuya perfeccion la pintura sobre uña no alcanzaría, sobre todo por el propio relieve de la uña
