If you haven’t seen the mesmerizing results of wearing Gelish Flash Glam, what have you been waiting for? These dazzling 2-in-1 glitters are designed to give your nails a stunning sparkle whether you’re under natural light or in front of a camera flash. Wondering what that means? Well, sporting Flash Glam is going to give you two distinct looks: a beautiful glitter when wearing them out and about, and a super-dose of sparkle when a camera flash hits them. It’s like a mani selfie in a bottle!

Available in eight different hues, including the brand-new I’ll Shine For You blue glitter and Mint To Sparkle green glitter, they make a statement on their own, but they’re also perfect for accentuating nail art designs. When you pair these dazzlers with cream color, your designs are really going to pop thanks to the flash-activated formula. Below, we show you two different designs to get the creative juices flowing. If you try them out, be sure to post and tag us on Instagram!

Luxe Leopard

Prep your nails and apply a thin coat of Foundation Base Coat Gel. Cure for 5 seconds in the Gelish 18G LED Light.

Apply a thin coat of Gelish Tan My Hide to the nails that will have the leopard print, and cure for 30 seconds. Repeat with a second coat, and don’t forget to cap the free edge.

Add dots using I’ll Shine For You and Mint To Sparkle across the nail, and cure for 30 seconds. For nails that will only feature Flash Glam, apply two coats of your Flash Glam color of choice, curing for 30 seconds after each.

Using a Mini Striper Brush, use Gelish Black Shadow to create uneven half circles around each sparkle dot. The less perfect, the better! Cure for 30 seconds.

Apply Gelish Top It Off and cure for 30 seconds.

Cleanse the inhibition layer with Gelish Nail Surface Cleanse and finish with Nourish Cuticle Oil.
