Glitter nail polish is an absolute must for a party or holiday. And while we love glitter in all its forms, it’s not the only way to achieve this shimmer. You can also create this gorgeous look with the help of glitter top coats and opaque glitter polishes.

To make your glitter nails last all day, apply a base coat first. It’ll help prevent the polish from chipping. If you’re concerned about the base coat chipping, apply top coat after your base coat to help prevent further damage.

The best way to create these nails is to first apply two coats of your favorite glitter nail polish. If you prefer a matte finish, apply three to four coats.

For the most glittery results, apply a top coat to smooth the polish out, and add glitter. Apply a thin layer and allow the glitter to settle in. Use a flat and clean nail brush to brush it into the corners and edges of the polish. You can also add glitter to the tips of your nails.

Once you’re satisfied with your glitter polish, seal your nails in a base coat and apply top coat to seal the polish. This will protect your nails and keep them shiny all day long.
