Nail Glitter Powder

So you've got your nails all done up, but they're just not flashy enough. You need some nail glitter powder! Not only will nail glitter make your nails look great, but it's also really easy to apply and encapsulate with a Mylee Clear Builder Gel so you can get that professional salon look at home.

There are lots of different ways that you can use nail glitter powder to create unique and interesting nail designs. You can mix and match different colours or go for a more subtle effect by just using one colour.

You can also apply the glitter in different ways - either by dipping your nails directly into the powder or using a small nail brush to apply it more precisely. And of course, you can always just sprinkle some on and hope for the best!

2. Apply glitter using one of the following techniques:

- Using the Mylee Sponge Applicator pick up your glitter by dipping the sponge into the glitter and pat it onto the nail. It will adhere to the tacky layer of polish.

- Using the Mylee Glitter Catcher place your finger over the catcher and use the scoop to pour glitter over the nail. Press in to adhere to the tacky layer of polish. You can then use the glitter catcher to catch any excess glitter and scoop it back into its container.

- Use nail art brushes to pick up the glitter and place onto the nail in the desired position.

- Mix loose glitter in with MyGel Base Coat and brush onto the nail like a polish.

- Dip your nail into the pot of glitter and press in to adhere to the tacky layer of polish.

3. Use the Mylee Duster brush to dust over the nails and remove any excess glitter from the fingers.
