Hi lovelies, my client sent me the pic below, would you mind letting me know how to achieve that effect with glitter? X

This was done by sprinkling glitter into uncured top coat and then curing , that's why it has a textured effect

Forewarn your client that with this effect , the glitter will flake away with normal wear and tear

For a more longer lasting result that will look similar, you could do a normal rockstar nail and use a Matt top coat, or if you don't have a Matt top coat use a regular top coat and buff the surface with a a very fine buffer (like 1200 grit side of a CND Koala Buffer)
 
Thank you Noreen you are a star!!! I prefer buffing to matte top coat, I'm not sure why! But at least I have all these options xx
 
See a lot of this done on utube
