How to find the best dipping powder?

Finding the perfect dipping powder for your nails can be a challenging task. With so many brands and options available, how do you know which one is best for you? In this blog article, we'll take you through the process of selecting the ideal dipping powder so your nails always look their best.

What should you look for when looking for dipping powder?

Look for dipping powders that are known for their quality and durability. Brands such as Azure Beauty, Kiara Sky - and, of course, Glowdip - offer dipping powder starter sets that are ideal for beginners. These kits contain everything you need for a beautiful manicure.

Color and finish

The color and finish of dipping powder are very important. Whether you prefer nude shades or something more striking, it is important to choose a color that suits your style. Glowdip offers several color options. Curious about the options? Then take a look at our dipping powder colors.

3. Remove excess powder: Use a brush to remove excess powder.

4. Repeat: Apply 2-3 coats for deeper color and thickness.

Can I mix different brands of dipping powder?

Yes, you can mix different brands, but do so wisely. Make sure the products can be used together to achieve the best results.

Hygiene, both at home and in the salon

Both at home and in the nail salon, it is important to use dipping powders hygienically. You don't have to worry about a fresh, unopened jar of powder. However, be careful with jars that have already been opened and may have been used by multiple people/clients. This may affect the quality of the dip powder. 

The role of base and top coat in dipping powder manicures

An important aspect of choosing the right dipping powder is understanding the role of the base and top coat. These layers are crucial to achieving a long-lasting and glossy finish. The base coat helps the powder adhere to the nail, while the top coat provides a smooth and glossy finish that protects the color. Choose products known for their strong adhesion and bright shine to maximize the longevity of your manicure.

Make sure you remove the dipping powder properly too

Proper removal of dipping powder is essential to prevent damage to your nails. Using 100% acetone and gently peeling off the layers helps keep your nails healthy and strong. Avoid peeling off or forcing the powder layer as this can damage your natural nails.
