How to use Chrome Powder correctly?

Chrome Powder is one of the prettiest and most user-friendly nail enhancements that you can use! It can turn an ordinary manicure into a head-turner and all you need are as follows - No Wipe Top Coat, your preferred Chrome Powder, and your applicator and this come with Double Dip’s pot of Chrome Powder!

You can also use Chrome powder to create different patterns on your nail, just pick two chrome powders of your choice and combine these colors to create one design, lines, and shapes... the choices are limitless!

How do you apply Chrome Powder?

This easy-to-do nail enhancement only needs one product to work its magic and that is the No Wipe Top Coat! The pigments will adhere to the cured Top Coat to create your chosen design. 

Follow these easy steps to make your Chrome Powder nails last up to 2-3 weeks!

• Properly Prep your nails and apply Base & Gel Colour coats as normal.

• Apply a No Wipe Top Coat and cure for 30 seconds in your Lamp.

• After that, get a tiny amount of your chosen Chrome Powder onto your applicator brush.

• Rub the powder onto the nail until full coverage that you want is achieved.

• Take a Nail Buffer and gently run this over the free edge of your nail - this will remove any loose powder that will otherwise prevent your Top Coat from sticking.

• You can use a Dust Brush to remove any other powder too, and before applying a final layer of No Wipe Top Coat. 

• Cure for 60 seconds.
