2. Glitter Bomb & Sparkle Accents β¨
Purple and glitter are a match made in heaven! These looks showcase glitter in so many gorgeous ways:
- Full Glitter Nail:Β An entire nail drenched in chunky purple or iridescent glitter
- Glitter Fade:Β Glitter concentrated at the tip or cuticle and fading out (Often seen combined with ombre).
- Glitter French Tip:Β Replacing the classic white tip with a line of sparkling purple glitter.
- Glitter Lines:Β Thin lines of glitter accentuating other designs.
- My Glitter Application Tips:
- Full Glitter:Β Use a good qualityΒ purple/iridescent glitter polishΒ βΒ β apply thin coats, letting each dry. For intense sparkle, try the βsponging methodβ: apply glitter polish to a makeup sponge and dab it onto the nail. This absorbs excess clear base and deposits more glitter.
- Glitter Fade:Β Apply glitter polish more heavily at one end (e.g., the tip) and use a dry brush or the polish brush with very little product to lightly drag the glitter towards the center, creating a gradient.
- Loose Glitter:Β Apply a layer of top coat or base coat. While itβs tacky, sprinkle or pressΒ loose glitterΒ βΒ onto the desired area. Gently pat it down. Seal thoroughly with top coat (sometimes two layers are needed for a smooth finish).
