First paint the nails in the desired color. Then sprinkle the matching glitter or shimmer powder into the not yet completely dried nail polish, work it in with your finger and let it dry well. A clear topcoat can then be used again.

In the beginning, it takes a little practice to apply so that you don’t use too much or too little and the result looks even. But the trick is quickly out and can then be copied super easily by anyone. It is important that the powder is very fine and does not have any particles that are too coarse.

Our favorite combination is a light pink with a delicate silver powder. In this way, the nails are perfectly staged, but still look restrained. It doesn’t matter whether you prefer to wear the nails short or long – the method is therefore really suitable for everyone.
