2. Holographic “Baby Chrome” Nails
Give your nails a futuristic yet understated shine with a baby chrome finish. This technique uses a subtle chrome powder over a pastel base for a “lit-from-within” glow.
How to Do It:
• Step 1: Apply your chosen pastel base color and cure (if using gel).
• Step 2: Brush on a thin layer of a nonwipe top coat.
• Step 3: Dip a small makeup sponge or detail brush into holographic chrome powder.
• Step 4: Gently press the powder onto the top coat, then brush off any excess.
• Step 5: Seal with another layer of nonwipe top coat and cure again.
Pro Tip: Practice on one nail first to perfect your pressure and technique before applying to all nails.
