Step by Step DIY(Do It Yourself) Guide
1
Prepare the nails.
File and shape the nails to your desired length.
Buff the surface of the nails to create a smooth base.
2
Apply base coat.
Apply a thin layer of base coat to protect the natural nail.
Allow it to dry completely.
3
Paint the base color.
Apply one or two coats of the lilac sheer polish, letting each coat dry before applying the next.
Ensure an even coverage without streaks.
4
Create the gradient effect.
Using a makeup sponge, apply the holographic polish to create a gradient effect from the cuticle to the tip.
Dab the sponge gently on the nail, building up the opacity as desired.
5
Add the glitter.
Using a dotting tool or toothpick, pick up the colorful circular glitter.
Place the glitter randomly on the nails, ensuring an even distribution.
6
Finish with a top coat.
Once the glitter is in place, apply a layer of top coat over the entire nail to seal the design.
Allow to dry thoroughly.
Pro Tips
For a more dimensional look, consider layering different sizes of glitter.
Ensure each layer is completely dry before applying the next to avoid smudging.
Use a clean-up brush dipped in nail polish remover to tidy up around the nails for a professional finish.
