Gorgeous Aura Nails with Dip Powder: A Step-by-Step Guide
If you're a nail enthusiast looking to elevate your manicure game, Aura Nails with dip powder can be your go-to choice. Not only is it long-lasting and durable, but it also offers a flawless finish that is sure to turn heads. Let's dive into the step-by-step process of achieving stunning Aura Nails using dip powder.
Step 1: Prep Your Nails
Begin by shaping your nails to your desired length and gently push back the cuticles. Lightly buff the surface of your nails to remove any shine and ensure better adhesion of the dip powder.
Step 2: Apply the Base Shade
Apply a thin layer of the base coat to your nails one at a time. Make sure to avoid getting the base coat on your cuticles or skin. Immediately dip your nail into your base color of choice at a 45-degree angle. Repeat this process on each nail.
Step 3: Repeat the Process
After the first dip, dust off any excess powder and apply a second coat of base coat to your nails. Dip your nails into the powder once again for a second layer of color. Repeat this step for the desired opacity and color intensity.
Step 4: Activate and Shape
Once you achieve the desired color and thickness, apply the activator to seal the dip powder. Allow it to dry for a few minutes before gently shaping and filing your nails to your preferred shape.
Step 5: Create the 'Aura'
Apply a thin layer of Matte Gel Top Coat. Cure under a UV/LED lamp for 30 seconds. Take an ombre brush or a dense eyeshadow brush and dip it into your second color. This should be the color that you want your 'Aura' to be. Lightly tap the powder onto your nail in circular motions to create your 'Aura.' Cure again in a UV/LED lamp for 60 seconds.
Step 6: Apply Top Coat
Finish off your Aura Nails by applying a thin layer of gel top coat to each nail. This will provide a glossy and protective finish to your manicure. Cure your top coat in a UV/LED lamp for 60 seconds.
By following these simple steps, you can achieve gorgeous Aura Nails with dip powder right at home. Elevate your nail game and flaunt your impeccable manicure with confidence.
