The possibilities are truly limitless. One great feature of gold is that it can be used as an accent to any nail design, regardless of color, and it will look great.

If you want to experiment with two different textures, I recommend matte nails with gold decals. The stark contrast between the two textures will highlight your gold even more.

Gold chrome nails are another great option if you want a sharp edge to your nail design. If you’re tired of the traditional gold color, try rose gold. This popular nail color has been popular for about a decade and is a crowd favorite when it comes to nail design.
