Every once in awhile, an earth-shattering revelation comes along that makes us realize we know nothing. Think our planet actually orbits the sun type epiphanies although granted, we werent around to witness that one. Todays reveal is going to change your life in a slightly different way, but its no less momentous. It turns out weve all been applying our glitter nail polishes incorrectly. Well let that sink in.
The correct method can be found in one of YouTuber Kelli Marissas tutorials, Lipstick.com reports . Instead of painting your glitter lacquers on as you would regular polishes, you need to first dab them onto makeup sponges. Make sure youre using a disposable one and not your precious BeautyBlenders, because youre about to sacrifice the sponge in question to the manicure gods. The idea behind the additional step is that the porous material will soak up much of the liquid base, allowing the glitter to go on in a thick, opaque coat. As you can see in the video, when Kelli sponges on the polish, she gets an incredibly dense finish with minimal fuss. FYI, this is also where we discovered the genius hack of painting liquid latex around your nail bed, to avoid getting any polish on your fingers. Genius! And just think, now you have something sparkly to match your glitter lips . Now theres a bright idea
