Holographic nails have been a huge trend this Summer, and luckily, you don't have to go to the salon to get them, thanks to these powders. The effect is easy to achieve at home with the help of a handy DIY gel manicure kit, a few tools, and the correct nail powder for your desired effect. You can experiment and create different looks depending on what polish color you use underneath the powder.
To get the holographic finish, simply take a sponge eye shadow applicator and dip it into the powder after you've cured your base and coat of color. Pat the powder onto your nail bed and use a buffing motion to spread it across the area, being careful not to go over the same section too many times. If you'd like to create an ombré holographic effect, you can apply the powder to just the tips of your nails. When you've achieved your desired effect, apply a top coat and cure under your UV lamp.
The best part of these products is that they come in more than just holographic hues. You can also experiment with nail powders that will give you a mirror-like or chrome finish, and some even glow in the dark. Many of the powders come in variety packs, so you can try out several different finishes along with your holographic nail look.
Ahead you'll find the very best holographic nail powders so you can get a dazzling manicure at home.
