What is Dipping Powder?
The Dipping Powder System is a combination of powders and liquids that quickly and easily promises salon-pretty nails and natural nail enhancement, and for a long time without a UV lamp.
Dipping Powder can be used on your natural nails as well as artificial tips Our powders are finely ground to ensure perfectly smooth, even and clean results.
With a color palette of over 60 colors, you can create your own set of your favorite colors
How many manicures can you make per color powder?
With one color powder, you can do up to 30 complete applications. This is based on two coats of paint per application.
Should I take a break between manicures?
Basically, it is always an individual decision to take a break between manicures. If in the beginning your nails are not used to a long-term manicure, we recommend a 3-day break between manicures.
Our nail oil intensively moisturizes your nails and cuticles. Please do not apply any other polish or nail hardener during the break.
Can Dipping Powder also be used on short nails?
Yes! You can use Glowdip not only on long nails, but also apply it super easily on short nails.
Are the products suitable for pregnant/nursing women?
We recommend refraining from long-term manicures such as Dipping Powder, gel, shellac, etc. during pregnancy and breastfeeding. If you do choose an application, I recommend that you discuss it with your doctor beforehand.
Can I also apply a Dipping Powder manicure to my gel extension?
Natural. You can create a nail extension with gel and perform the Dipping Powder application quite simply on the gel nails.
What is Crystal Clear and what do I need it for?
The color Crystal Clear is not a must, but is for protection. As a first layer, it protects the nail from possible discoloration.
Crystal Clear can also be used again after the color powder as a final layer, so that the color result does not change or fade due to subsequent filing and shaping. We particularly recommend this for glitter and metallic colors.
If you prefer a dipping manicure with more than three layers, you can super do the build-up under the two color layers with Crystal Clear.
Why do the colors on the website look different from mine?
The powder in the box itself is always very light and at first glance does not look like the result on the nails.
Our images on the website are unedited and adjusted to two layers of color. Depending on the light (daylight or studio light), colors on nails look different. We have tried to photograph colors in all possible variations.
In addition, colors on images may vary depending on the monitor (brightness, night mode).
How do you apply Dipping Powder?
Applying the Dipping Powder is quick and easy. The combination of different liquids and the powders allows you to conjure up beautiful manicures. The Base Coat forms the base and protects the nails.
- Simply apply the Base Coat and dip in the color powder.
- This step is repeated to achieve high coverage.
- Next, the coats are cured with the Activator.
- The Top Coat seals it all and gives the nails the optimal shine.
The application does not require a UV lamp to cure. Between steps, don't rush and work through nail by nail to achieve great results.
How can the Dipping Powder be removed again?
Glowdip Dipping Powder is best removed with our remove basics. This method is simple, quick and gentle on the nail. The special Glowdip remover does not dry out the nails in the process.
Because Dipping Powder is not “polish,” it cannot be removed with conventional nail polish removers.
