Rose Gold sits exactly between a chrome and a pink jelly and does what neither can: it moves. A rose-gold base carries a pink-copper flash that is warmer than silver and softer than gold, and on a medium coffin the light runs long down each nail. It looks like a piece of jewellery you were born wearing — which is why it is the one people photograph and send to their nail tech.

How this look is done
- 01Shape to a medium coffin and apply a rose-gold gel base, curing fully.
- 02Apply the pink-copper magnetic gel in one even coat.
- 03Hold the magnet upright along the length of the nail for five seconds so the flash runs from cuticle to tip, then cure.
- 04Seal with a high-gloss top coat and cure for maximum reflection.
Who it suits
Warm, neutral and olive undertones wear rose gold most naturally; on very cool skin choose a pinker, lighter version. Coffin and almond give the long flash room to travel. It is a wedding-guest manicure, a party manicure, and it pairs with rose-gold and gold jewellery alike.
How it wears
Two to three weeks in gel with the flash locked in. Metallic bases show tip wear a little sooner than crèmes, so cap the free edge well at application and avoid using your nails as tools in week three.
Softer or bolder
Softer: a blush base with a pearl flash, so the metal reads as a glow. Bolder: a copper base with the magnet held diagonally, which turns rose gold into struck bronze.
