Discover Pearl Powder in a wide range of shades beyond the classic white, so you can create exactly the look you want.
What is Pearl Powder?
Pearl Powder is a pigment that gives your nails a glossy, almost iridescent glow. It is a type of Nail Art that gives your Gel Polish manicure a soft pearlescent shine.
The powder is very fine, so it settles smoothly on the nail surface and catches the light beautifully. It gives a glossy finish and a subtle color shift depending on the Gel Polish you choose as your base.
How to apply Pearl Powder
It’s easy to give your nails a pearlescent shine. Follow these steps to apply your Pearl Powder for the best results:
- First, prepare your nails by pushing back the cuticles and lightly filing the nail.
- Apply a thin layer of Base Coat, and cure it in your UV lamp for 60 seconds.
- Then apply your preferred Gel Polish color in thin layers, and cure each layer for 60 seconds. Two layers of Gel Polish often provide good coverage.
- Apply a layer of No Wipe Top Coat, and cure it in your UV lamp for 60 seconds. It is important to use a No Wipe Top Coat, as it does not leave a sticky layer, allowing the powder to bond beautifully to the surface.
- Pick up a small amount of Pearl Powder with a Nail Art applicator or eyeshadow brush. Gently rub the powder onto the nail surface using circular motions until you have achieved the desired effect and shine.
- Remove excess powder with a soft brush.
- Finish with another layer of Top Coat to seal in the powder, and cure for 60 seconds.
Who is Pearl Powder for?
