Return To ShopColour blocking is a great way to add a little personality to your dip powder nails. It gives you the flexibility to create different looks each time, to keep your style fresh. Our customers often ask us the question on how to do colour blocking with dip powder nails. So, we thought we’d create a guide on how to do this. It’s quite simple to do!
Preparing the Base
The first thing you will want to do is to prepare the base. In order to do that, you should remove all the current nail polish from your nails. It is important to have a smooth surface for the base coat, as this will protect the nails properly. Taking the time to prepare the base will lead to better results, and your dip powder nails will last longer if the base has been prepared well.
Adding the Dip Powder
Once you clean your nails and prepare the base, you can then proceed to add your nails to the dip powder that you are looking to apply. Follow the instructions that are included with the kit for best results. Do one nail at a time, and the key to success is to take your time.
Start Colour Blocking
What colour blocking does is it allows you to add a variety of colours to your dip powder nails. With that in mind, if you have already added the dip powder to your nails, you will be able to use a thin art store paintbrush or even the nail polish brush on its own to add more colour.
The idea here is to add colour to the nail over the current dip powder nail application. Make sure that you create the first block with this method, and then you can go ahead and do the same with the second colour if you have any space left. What a lot of women do is they use a variety of designs for the colour block. This means no two nails will be the same. Or you can go with the same design for each nail. It’s really up to you what designs you create!
