Dip Powder
What is Dip Powder and how to use?
What is a dip powder manicure?
Dip powder manicures are
longer-lasting than their gel counterparts (they can typically last up to one
month), and they also don’t require any UV light to harden. They also yield
similar, even-coated results as acrylic manicures—but since there is no harsh
UV light or fake nail tips involved, dip powder manis are also said to be less
damaging to your nails in the long-term.
Here's how to give yourself a dip
powder manicure at-home
This is how the at-home process typically works.
First, you’ll want to apply a base coat onto clean, freshly buffed nails (this helps to smooth out any ridges so that the powder can coat the nail evenly).
Next, instead of painting the nail color on with a brush, as with a traditional or gel manicure, you’ll dip your nail into a pot of pigmented powder. Then, simply tap or brush off any excess powder (many kits include a buff brush) and repeat the process one more time to ensure an even coat.
After two go-rounds of dipping, you’ll paint on a clear activator polish. This activator turns the colored powder into a glossy lacquer and essentially bonds it onto the nail itself. Once that’s dry, you’ll apply a clear coat of polish as a top coat, and voila! Your DIY dip powder manicure is done, and it should last at least a few weeks (or more).
