Ever since Hailey Bieber made it popular in 2022, the glazed donut manicure has continued to seduce beautystas around the world, whatever its variations. The latter consists of applying a chrome powder on a nail polish (most often nude) to obtain a manicure as shiny as the icing on a fresh donut.
And if this trend is popular it is because it has the power to elevate a classic manicure by giving it a fresh, feminine and delicate side. A beauty treatment which, this summer 2024, will continue its expansion, now reaching the feet in a more colorful and pastel variant (the good weather requires it). Whether you want to mix colors or stay on a rather discreet base, this new pedicure trend will seduce you with its delicacy and the beauty of its finish.
How to achieve this glazed effect?
If you want to achieve this effect at home, it is important to know what steps to take. First of all it is obviously necessary prepare your nails by filing them, pushing them back and eliminating the cuticles. After, apply a base, which will help protect your nails by making the nail polish last longer. Proceed to the painting phase by choosing the pastel shade you prefer. From blue to pink, nude, yellow, purple or green… it’s up to you! If you want, you can also paint each nail a different color for a really cute rainbow effect.
Once the colors are positioned, apply top coat for maximum shine. When the latter is completely dry, affix a little chrome powder on your nails using a small brush (similar to the one you use to apply eye shadow). You can buy it in all specialized beauty shops or simply on Amazon. These are worth on average between 5 and 10 euros.
Work the material into your nails until you achieve the desired glossy effect and finish with a final coat of top coat.
