About Glitter False Nails
During lockdown, there was a massive surge in comfortable and functional clothing. As we were all ordered to stay home, we reached out for the loungewear in a massive way. Hopefully that is all now behind us, and we are ready for a style shake up. And the good news? Sequins, shine, and glitter are completely on trend. From high shine raincoats to sequinned tops and glitter nails, we are ready to see and be seen. So let’s get this party started…
It’s hardly surprising that we are looking for a little dazzle in our day to day, lockdown was a tough time. And it has historic precedence, we only need to look at the 1920s to see how periods of hardship create an appetite for excess and decadence. Of course, we are also now facing a growing financial crisis, so we need to find the funk in the frugal. The best way to pay homage to all that is trending, is to show you're in the know with careful accessories including headbands, glitter make up and glitter nails.
Festival Glitter
A less is no mantra is strictly forbidden for all things festival and when it comes to glitter, it is simply a must-have. The only question is how will you decide to style it? Here are a few ideas.
- If you are creating a masterpiece with your makeup, you need it to look slick. Throwing on too many colours and hoping to get away with it won’t work. Especially as the sun turns up the heat and everything ends up melting into one. Stick with 2 shades, maybe 3 at the most. Start with the brightest colours towards the middle of the cheekbones and blend out with lighter shades towards the temples.
- Glitter beards! Yes, they are a real thing and frequently styled using ombré inspiration. Go for it, gentleman.
- Style yourself a glittery hair parting. This works best if the hair is styled into two pigtails or perhaps buns. Wash the hair, secure in place and spray hairspray down the parting. Apply your chosen glitter and go party.
- Whilst there are many lip products on the market promising to give you a glittery vibe, the impact is usually… meh! Stick with your usual shade of lipstick, apply lip gloss and then gently dust your chosen glitter over the top. Mwah.
- For festival wear, glitter can literally be worn all over the body… in some areas you may need to upgrade your glitter for sequins, just for good coverage. And to ensure you are not sporting a unicorn vibe right into autumn, use soluble adhesive. which will ensure you can easily remove your artwork with water.
- And of course… glitter nails.
Final tip. Entrance prices to some of the bigger festivals can be sky-high. So look for more local events or even throw your own back garden festival. Just be prepared to be cleaning glitter from surfaces till at least Christmas.
How To Wear Glitter Nails
Whilst we totally accept glitter nails for festivals or during the Christmas season, the look can really be worn all year round. You simply need to know how to style it properly. Check out some hot mani ideas below.
The Dark Side
This look is a great style for winter. Choose your favourite matte nail polish in a deep hue such as mulberry, emerald, or even black. Style your nails in your normal way and then simply add a glittery finish to your thumbs or small fingers. This manicure is easy to achieve, and the extra sparkle will just elevate your overall look. Or you can go straight for the black glitter false nails.
Go Nude
If you are the type of lady who prefers a classic nail but is just seeking a tad more shimmer, keep with a nude nail with an iridescent or glitter nail finish. If you find the look challenging to achieve at home, but don’t want to spend on a salon manicure, why not opt for falsies.
Shorty
The key to wearing glitter in a grown up way, is to think about shape and length. Vibrant pink coffin length nails are super cool… but they don’t yell sophistication. Keep the nails short, possibly with a square tip, and mute the shade. Choose a complete glittery manicure, or just accent with one or two nails on each hand.
Product Focus
Glitter nails come in a wide choice of colour choices, so whatever the event and whatever you are wearing, there will be a glitter nail colour for you. Whether you want to go bold with red glitter false nails, or go for super sparkly gold glitter false nails, the choice is all yours.

Can I Put Glitter Face Paint on False Nails?
If you are heading to a festival, you might be wondering if you can use glitter face paint on your nails. Nail experts do not recommend this, as face paint has not been designed to work with false nails and will probably get quite messy. Besides, false nails like silver glitter false nails and pink glitter false nails are perfect for the festival look.
Do You Need Special Glitter for Nails?
Yes, if you want a longer lasting, professional looking nail look, you should only use glitter that has been designed to be used on nails specifically.
What is Nail Glitter Made of?
Nail glitter is usually made out of a sheet of thin polyester that is cut into tiny shapes.
