Glitter manicure: top 15 sparkling ideas

At the cuticle

Sequins placed near the cuticle are one of the most trendy options for iridescent manicure this year. As a rule, craftsmen place sparkling particles on a light background - white, nude, cream, powder, beige and blue. This design looks very airy, light and at the same time festive. Use different sizes of glitter to create a 3D effect for incredible results.

Maximum shine

Applying glitter to the entire nail, or even all the fingers, is without a doubt an effective solution for the most daring clients. You can complement your manicure with glitter with atmospheric inscriptions that will meaningfully decorate your nails and add a special twist to the design. Pay attention to glosses in non-standard colors - powdery pink, turquoise, sky blue or bronze.

Stripes

Lines on the nails, coated with glitter, are an ideal option for autumn and winter manicure. Not too pretentious, but at the same time elegant. You can make the stripes more accentuated by using a darker outline or applying glitter over the colored line, stretching it across the area of the nail. You can mix this design option with other beautiful solutions, for example, foil, kamifubuki or gold leaf.

On the tips of the nails

Another fashionable effect of 2021 is as if your client dipped her hands into the shimmer and forgot to shake off the sparkles from her fingertips. Place sparkling particles on the free edge, imitating a French manicure, or simply stretching the glitter over half the nail plate. In this case, we advise you to give preference to large glitter in combination with smaller shimmer to make the manicure look more impressive.

On one nail

No matter how they predict the fading of their popularity for sparkles on one nail, year after year in the cold season they return to the nail arena. The tips from the previous paragraphs, as well as unexpected combinations of shades, for example, black, nude and powdery or dusty gray with silver-pink, will help make this design more lively and modern.
