Applying sugar glitter to your nails involves encapsulating the glitter with a wet top coat to create a textured, sparkling effect. Here's how:
-
Apply a wet top coat: After applying your base coat and nail polish color, apply a generous, even layer of wet top coat to the nail you want to glitter.
-
Sugar the glitter: Immediately pour or sprinkle the sugar glitter onto the wet top coat. Ensure the entire nail surface is covered to achieve a full "sugared" effect.
-
Remove Excess: Gently tap off any excess glitter.
-
Set the Glitter: Let the top coat and glitter set for around 60 seconds.
-
Brush Off: After the drying time, brush off any loose excess glitter with a soft brush.
The glitter should now be adhered to the nail, creating a textured, sugary appearance. If your client is prone to picking, be aware that the texture may make them want to pick at it.
