Pollen manicure is one of the hottest trends in the world of nail styling. The effects we can achieve with various pollens are truly spectacular. From mirror shine to delicate mermaid finishes – the possibilities are almost limitless. So how do you create these trendy styles at home or in a salon? We invite you to read on!
What is pollen manicure?
Pollen manicure is a technique that involves applying special pollens to the nail surface. These pollens can vary: from metallic, through holographic, to those that give a chameleon effect. Thanks to them, we can give nails a completely new, unique look. Interestingly, the final effect depends not only on the pollen itself but also on the base color of the polish on which it is applied. Therefore, it’s worth experimenting and creating your own unique compositions.
How to achieve a mirror effect?
The mirror effect, also known as chrome, is one of the most spectacular finishes we can achieve with pollens. To achieve it, we need special chrome pollen. The key to success here is the proper application technique. After applying the base and curing it, we apply black hybrid polish to the nail – it best highlights the metallic shine of the pollen. Then, after curing the polish, we rub the pollen into the nail surface using an applicator or finger. Finally, we secure the whole with a top coat, which we also cure.
Mermaid effect – delicacy and shine
The mermaid effect is a proposal for those who value delicacy and subtle shine. To achieve it, we use special mermaid pollen, which gives nails a pearly, shimmering look in the light. The application process is similar to that of the mirror effect. After applying the base and chosen polish color, we rub the pollen into the nail surface. It is important to do this gently to achieve an even distribution of pollen. Finally, as before, we secure the whole with a top coat.
Other trendy finishes with pollens
Besides the mirror and mermaid effects, pollens offer many other possibilities. The holo effect, which gives nails a rainbow finish, or the chameleon effect, which changes color depending on the angle of light, are just some of them. Each of these effects requires the use of appropriate pollen and base, so it’s worth experimenting to find your favorite style.
What are the advantages and disadvantages of pollen manicure?
Pollen manicure has many advantages. First of all, it allows for extremely impressive stylizations that attract attention and are a perfect complement to any outfit. Thanks to the variety of pollens, we can create styles for different occasions – from everyday to evening. However, like any cosmetic procedure, it also has its downsides. First of all, applying pollens requires precision and patience. It is also important to remember that some pollens can be difficult to remove, so it is important to always use high-quality base and top coats.
