Disco Diva Nails!

Glitter nail polish is a great way to add a touch of sparkle to an otherwise plain manicure. But, unless you put about 30 coats of polish on there, glitter lacquer won't ever give you full glitter coverage. What happens when you want IN YOUR FACE DISCO NAILS because you just absolutely need bling bling in your life?

This is what happens....

Below, you will find an easy technique to get full coverage disco ball nails! 

For this look, you will need the following supplies:

Base coat

Color coat

Clear nail polish that is not quick dry

Small paintbrush

Fine grain glitter

Note: For the fine grain glitter, I used Supernail glitter in Silver Rush. I got it at Sallys Beauty Supply.  Your glitter does not have to be made specially made for nails to be used for this. 

Directions:

1.  Paint base coat on nails, then paint color coat on. Whatever you use as your color coat will be visible through the glitter slightly, so choose one you like!

2.  Take your clear nail polish and stick your paintbrush in it. Get a medium amount on the brush. Then, stick your brush in the pot of glitter.

3.  You should only have a small amount of of glitter on your brush. Paint the glitter onto your nails. If you need to, stick your paintbrush back into your polish and glitter to get more glitter. If it starts to get a little chunky, just use a little more of the clear polish.  

This is about the amount of glitter you need on your brush for a smaller nail. 

4.  When you are done, use a top coat. I used Seche Vite instead of my typical Revlon because Seche Vite is thicker, and will cover up the texture of the glitter. That way, if I touch my nails they are nice and smooth. Here is the finished manicure again!
