A new dazzling manicure trend has people peering at their nails, making them dance in the light. Yes, holographic nail polishes never fail to mesmerize beauty lovers at every angle.
With nail trends making waves in social media, various styles have popped into the scene. While nail artists are having fun developing brush strokes and application techniques, nail polish brands seem to be matching the energy with the trove of new products made available on the market.
Take, for example, the new wave of holographic nail polishes. This eye-catching new line of products has been trending on social media for quite some time now, with "#holographicnails" getting nearly 40 million views on TikTok.
This nail design can be achieved by using holographic nail polish. This is a new type of nail polish with fine metal powder that refracts light depending on the angle of light that strikes it. This is why whichever way we turn our nails, we see various colors that shine.
Here are some of our favorite brands and shades of holographic nail polishes:
Rainbow in a Bottle: Mega by ILNP
This premium product is made only of the highest quality holographic pigments jam-packed in a 12-milliliter bottle. Picture having a rainbow in a bottle and later on your nails!
Mega has a buildable opacity, which means if you layer it on itself, you'll get a more intense degree of holographic effect. Various effects can be achieved if you layer it over another color of nail polish.
Party Time: Eclipse by Zoya
Zoya found a way for you to have "party time" nails in just three coats. Eclipse is in the white color family but with a twist; it comes with silver and rainbow sparkles that show off different colors with every movement. Zoya also offers a precise Z-wide brush add-on for that quick and easy single-swipe action.
Warm and Shiny: Cosmic Fate by Color Club

Color Changing: Ethel by Cirque Colors

Colorfully Dark: Amethyst Smoke by Revlon
Getting dark nail polish doesn't mean you have to forget about holographic nails. Amethyst Smoke is made with ultra-fine holographic dust that gives you a gray and purple color shift. This product dries fast with a glossy finish. It is chip and fade-resistant.
