Glitter Gel Polish

Glitter Gel Polish combines nail polish with glitter flakes, adding sparkle to the nails. It can be used as an overlay or mixed with a clear gel base to create a glitter ombre effect.

To apply, brush a thin layer of color gel on all the nails and cure. Then sprinkle the desired glitter over it, gently tapping off excess.

Chunky Glitter

Glitter can come in many forms – from fine dust to chunky sparkles. If you’re looking for delicate glitter, opt for a glitter product infused with a cosmetic like an eyeshadow, lipstick or highlighter. It’s the safest way to add a hint of glitter without worrying about your skin adhering it too well.

Chunky glitter is typically made from poly-plastic based glitters and has a more textured presentation than craft or fine glitters. They offer dramatic sparkle and shine but can be trickier to work with because of the larger glitter particle size. It’s important to apply the glitter in a thin layer to prevent clumping and ensure a smooth, even finish.

For this reason, some artists will use a fine glitter in the mix to help fill in “the valleys” and create full coverage when crafting with chunky mixes. It also allows you to work with fewer top coats, as the larger glitter particles tend to rub off easily if not properly sanded.

You can apply loose body and face glitter by brushing it on with a dry makeup or beauty brush or using a glitter gel application. Some brands of body glitter come pre-mixed with a gel base or glycerin lip balm style mixture for easy application and a non-sticky option. If you’re concerned about applying a loose glitter to sensitive areas of the face or body, try using hair gel as a primer. It’s inexpensive and you likely already have it in your bathroom!

Fine Glitter

The fine glitter mixes contain small iridescent particles ranging from 1/64 – 1/96 of an inch in size. They provide a delicate shimmer Glitter Gel Polish for those who don’t want a full on sparkle look but still want to dazzle their clients. They can be mixed with the Nail Mate base coat like a regular gel polish or dispensed on a nail and sprinkled on top of it for a sugared effect. When crafting with the fine glitter mixes a little goes a long way, the smaller the particle size the more durable it is and you will have less top coats to apply.

Glitter Planet has a large selection of fine glitters, some of which are also available in holographic versions. They are very durable and can be used with any type of nail art. If you are creating a Disney style design, use the smallest iridescent glitters for the most subtle and refined look.

Using fine glitters with gel polish is super easy. Using your favorite Nail Mate base coat dispense a small amount on the nail or on a mixing pallet and mix in your preferred loose glitter until you achieve a smooth consistency. This will allow it to glide onto the nail easily without leaving clumps and adheres just like a gel polish with no mess. When you’ve finished your design cure your nails as directed and then finish with the Nail Mate Super Gloss top coat.

Loose Glitter

Glitter is usually sold as loose powder in jars or tubes, or mixed with various mixing mediums to create body glitter, nail polish, face paint and glitter tattoos. Glitter makeup can be used for special occasions like parties and festivals, or even everyday wear if you want to sparkle all day! It’s also a popular way to enhance beauty looks, such as eyeshadow or lip glitter.

Loose glitter is available in a range of colours, shapes and sizes, so it’s easy to find the perfect shade for any look! It can be applied using dry brushing, which means you dip your brush into the glitter and tap off any excess. This technique can be messy, but it’s great for creating a more controlled and precise application.

Another way to apply loose glitter is to mix it with a clear gel, such as Nail Mate base coat or Nail Mate clear builder gel. This method can be less messy, but it’s important to make sure the glitter is solvent resistant to prevent it from lifting.

Glitter Planet has a huge range of loose glitter mixes that are solvent resistant, and they’re super easy to use with gel! To apply, simply dispense some base coat onto a Glitter Gel Polish supplier plate or mixing palette, add your preferred glitter mix and stir it until you get the desired consistency.

Ombre Glitter

Glitter ombre is a fun and playful look that can elevate any outfit. It’s easy to achieve with a few simple techniques. Use a makeup sponge to dab glitter polish on top of a base color for an ombré effect. Try this fun peachy pink ombre glitter manicure for a girly and romantic look.

A gradient of different glitter shapes can also create an ombré effect. This is ideal for creating a bold and eye-catching manicure that’s perfect for special occasions. Use a dark base coat to create a mesmerizing glitter gradient that’s perfect for a night out or celebration.

You can even add a little more sparkle to your ombre glitter look by sprinkling in some fine glitter between the chunkier layers. This helps to create a more even and seamless blend that looks gorgeous when it’s dry.
