Pink Chrome - Girly Bits Mirror Chrome Effect Powder over Le Mini Macaron Fraise (Strawberry Pink) |
I'm not generally a huge gel polish fan so I was hesitant to get the supplies just to use the chrome powder but I caved when I found the little sets from Le Mini Macaron. They do simple gel polish with a small lamp for curing and it was the perfect solution for me. I like to change my nails too often to wear gel polish much but with this I can do chrome nails without investing in a regular size lamp that will take up space. I'm also looking forward to doing pedis with it because I don't like to do those really often (ha!).

So for this chrome mani, I decided to use a pink base to get a pink chrome effect with the silver chrome powder. I used 2 coats of Le Mini Macaron Fraise (Strawberry Pink), curing between coats. I then applied the Girly Bits Mirror Chrome Effect powder and finished with Le Mini Macaron 3X Shine Topcoat.

For these nails I used Dance Legend Peel Off basecoat (also purchased from Girly Bits) as I only wanted to wear them for a couple of days. Like this, I can avoid the annoying process of soaking off the gel polish! It works perfectly for me!

I really love how these turned out. I like that they feel edgy but girly at the same time. A friend of mine said they looked delicate and badass at the same time. I can definitely go with that! They were really fun to wear and simple to do. I'm a bit obsessed and want to try out all sorts of looks with these. I've also been loving wearing the powder on a black base for the normal silver chrome look.
What do you think? Do you like the chrome nails trend?
