You can create a mirror effect using chrome nail foil. However, working with foil is more difficult and requires the purchase of special materials as well as some experience. You can find chrome nail foil on-line or in beauty shops and when you have selected the color and have all the necessary items, you are ready to go.

Step 1 – Prepare your nails

File the nails in the desired shape, remove the cuticles, degrease the nail plate and polish. The surface of the nail should be perfectly even.

Step 2 – Apply a base

Apply a base but be careful for the color. It is important that the chosen color does not shine through the foil, but on the contrary, saturate it.

Step 3 – Apply the foil

You can cut the foil into pieces according to the size of the nail plate or cut the foil after it is stuck. Apply a layer of glue on the nail plate. Make sure it is not too thick. Press down the foil and smooth it carefully. You need to be careful and work slowly.

Step 4 – Remove the foil base

Remove the foil base and enjoy the mirror effect on your nails.

DIY chrome nails with powder step by step

 

There are two main methods to create a shiny mirror effect by using chrome powder. Usually, the powder is applied over UV gel nail polish, but you could apply it over non UV gel nail polish and it is possible to apply it over regular nail polish as well. Here are step by step instructions:

Step 1 – Prepare your nails

Take time and cut, file and shape your nails. Trim the cuticles. If you plan to use UV gel nail polish you need to use a buffer and buff the nails so that the gel sticks to the plate. Clean nail dust with a soft brush.

Step 2 – Apply nail polish

If you have applied regular nail polish, wait until it dries slightly and becomes sticky. If using a gel-varnish, first apply a primer, let it dry and then apply two thin layers of gel and cure each layer under the lamp.

Step 3 – Apply the chrome powder

Use a small applicator and gently rub chrome powder on the nail plate until the mirror shine appears. Make sure that the nail polish is covered completely.

Step 4- Apply a top coat

Clean excess chrome powder from your fingers and apply a top coat to protect your nail design. Enjoy your beautiful and fashionable chrome nails!
