Salon-Perfect Party Nails: Confetti & Glam Nail Art
Get ready to celebrate with these stunning salon-quality party nails! This design features a crisp, clean finish with playful confetti accents, perfect for adding a touch of glam to any celebration.
Supplies You'll Need
- Gel base coat
- White or clear gel polish
- Confetti nail glitter or small confetti pieces
- Gel top coat
- UV/LED lamp
- Nail art brush or dotting tool
How To Recreate It
- Apply a gel base coat and cure under a UV/LED lamp.
- Apply one or two coats of white or clear gel polish, curing after each coat.
- Carefully apply confetti to the nail using a nail art brush or dotting tool, arranging to your liking. Use a clear gel to adhere.

- Apply a gel top coat to seal the design and create a glossy finish.
- Cure the top coat under the UV/LED lamp.

FAQs
Can I use regular nail polish instead of gel?
Yes, but gel polish provides a longer-lasting and more durable finish. Regular polish may chip more easily.
What kind of confetti should I use?
Nail art confetti is specifically designed for nail application and is lightweight and thin. Avoid using thicker paper confetti.
How do I get a smooth finish with confetti nails?
Apply multiple thin layers of top coat and allow each layer to fully dry or cure before applying the next. A self-leveling top coat can also help.
Can I use different colors of polish for the base?
Absolutely! Experiment with different base colors to create unique looks. Light colors will make the confetti pop, while darker colors can create a more dramatic effect.
How long will this manicure last?
With proper application and aftercare, a gel confetti manicure can last up to two weeks without chipping or peeling.
Is it hard to remove confetti nails?
The removal process is the same as removing any gel manicure. Make sure to file off the top coat and soak in acetone to soften the gel.
