Glitterbels Effect Pigment Powder Mermaid Tail 0.5g

• Glitterbels Effect Pigment Powder in Mermaid Tail, 0.5g
• Chromatic effect pigment powder for use over gel or acrylic
• Part of the Glitterbels Chrome Crazy Powders range
• Paired with Mermaid Hair as coordinated set within the range

Glitterbels Effect Pigment Powder in Mermaid Tail is a chromatic pigment powder designed to be applied over a cured gel or acrylic base for iridescent, shifting-colour and multi-tonal nail finishes. Part of the wider Glitterbels Chrome Crazy Powders range, which spans 27 shades across pressed, loose and flake formats. Mermaid Tail sits alongside Mermaid Hair in the range as a coordinated paired shade — where Mermaid Hair suggests iridescent colour-shift in the aqua/teal/pink territory, Mermaid Tail likely leans further into the deeper aqua/green/blue-tail territory of the mermaid theme, though worth checking a swatch to confirm the exact tonal direction and how it complements Mermaid Hair for coordinated set work. 0.5g is a small nail-art pot size but goes further than it looks — chromatic pigments need only a tiny amount per nail.

How to use

Prep the nail as usual and apply your base gel or acrylic colour, curing per your usual routine. Apply a layer of no-wipe top coat and cure. Pick up a small amount of pigment with a chrome applicator or silicone tool and rub firmly into the cured top coat until you get the effect you want. Brush off any excess pigment. Seal with a final top coat and cure. Chromatic pigments with mermaid-style shifting effects often show their colour shift best over a black or dark base, though the exact base recommendation may vary by shade — experiment on a swatch stick if you're new to the shade. Consider pairing Mermaid Tail with Mermaid Hair across a coordinated set — different nails with the two shades give a themed mermaid-scale finish across the hand.

Who it's for
