Chrome Powder Nails
A mirror-sharp chrome achieved by rubbing fine chrome powder over a no-wipe top coat.
Trend context
Key fact
Chrome powder only mirrors over a cured no-wipe top coat: the particles have to be burnished into an uncured tacky layer, and mirror-grade powder is milled finer than holographic powder, which is why the same rubbing motion gives a liquid mirror with one and loose sparkle with the other.
