Chrome Nails @ Skintonic by Joanne

13 March 2017

Chrome Nails are one of the biggest trends in the manicure industry and almost every beauty lover has a "nail selfie" showing off their chrome nails in different shades. I'm obsessed with nails and when Skintonic by Joanne invited me to get a gold chrome mani I jumped at the opportunity to get my own metallic mani.

Celebs like Gigi Hadid and Janelle Monáe has been seen on the red carpet with the chrome mani's and of course Pinterest never disappoints in finding inspiration for your next nail fix.

Chrome nails are not new (I remember buying falsies in 2012 with the same metallic finish) but the method of doing it has changed and you can now have silver, gold or rose gold nails within seconds with a special glitter powder.

The talented Angie (ang_world2 on Instagram) was my nail tech and created an acrylic set of gold chrome stiletto nails with a rose tinted undertone. Chrome nails will have a different shade depending on the gel you place underneath. My nails had a red gel with gold chrome dust to give it a rose gold tint.

I've had my chrome stilettos now for 3 weeks and they still look great! If you like making a statement I definitely suggest giving it a go - we all need some extra shine in our lives and these will keep you sparkling!
