3 More Ways to Add Glitter to Gel Polish!

If you want to add more glitter to your gel polish, you can add it in yourself too!

There are a few different ways you can add glitter to gel polish:

1. Mix it into the gel polish and apply it with a brush

Pour some clear gel polish into an empty pot, sprinkle in some of your chosen glitter and stir them together. Apply with a brush over a base coat, then cure. Add any desired further coats before buffing away rough patches. Finish with a top coat.

Clean your gel polish brush to remove any glitter before returning it to its pot or using it again.

2 Apply the glitter to the tacky layer of the gel polish and seal

After applying your base layer or colour, cure it, but leave the tacky layer as it is. Make use of the slight stickiness to fix any glitter in place. Gently press the glitter down firmly onto the nail. Seal everything together with a layer of clear gel and cure.

Again – clean any brushes to ensure you don’t contaminate the whole nail varnish pot with glitter!

3. Sprinkle glitter over wet gel polish and cure

Apply your base coat or chosen colour – but, don’t cure it. Sprinkle glitter over the surface of the nail – this works best with a fine glitter without chunky pieces. When you’ve got the look you like, cure it. Finish with a top coat and file any rough edges.
