Have you ever dreamed of your nails looking like a piece of the galaxy? Holo nails, also known as holographic nails, are one of the hottest trends in the world of manicure. Their unique shine and color reminiscent of cosmic landscapes catch the eye and add a unique character to the nails. But how do you achieve this cosmic glow effect? Let’s get started!
What are holo nails?
Holo nails are a manicure that uses special products containing holographic particles. These tiny, multicolored elements reflect light in such a way that they create a rainbow effect on the nail surface. It looks truly fascinating, especially in sunlight. The holographic effect can be achieved using polishes, powders, or foils. Each of these methods has its unique advantages and is suitable for different levels of expertise in nail art.
How to achieve the holo nail effect?
1. Choose the right products
The first step to achieving holo nails is choosing the right products. There are many holographic polishes available on the market that already contain the necessary particles. However, if you prefer a more spectacular effect, it’s worth reaching for holo powders or special foils. In the case of powders, they should be gently rubbed into the dispersion layer of hybrid polish and then secured with a top coat. Foils, on the other hand, are applied to the nails and covered with a top coat for durability.
2. Prepare the nails
Before applying holographic products, it’s worth properly preparing the nails. Thorough cleaning, pushing back the cuticles, and shaping the nails are key steps. Additionally, it’s worth applying a base to protect the natural nail plate and extend the manicure’s durability.
3. Application of holographic products
If you’ve chosen a holographic polish, simply apply it to the nails and wait for it to dry. For powders, after applying the base and colored hybrid polish, gently rub the powder using an applicator or finger. The holographic effect will appear immediately! Secure everything with a top coat to maintain durability and shine.
4. Apply a top coat
Regardless of the chosen method, a crucial step is applying a top coat. It will make the holographic effect more pronounced and the manicure more durable. It’s worth choosing a high-gloss top coat to further emphasize the cosmic glow.
