Hi there! If your Metallic or Holographic powder isn’t giving you that amazing, high-shine effect you're expecting — don’t worry. The good news is, it’s often just a small tweak in your application method that makes all the difference.
For Metallics and Holos, one of the most important steps is making sure your Top Coat is completely dry before rubbing in the powder with your Mineral Bond Applicator.
If the Top Coat is even slightly tacky, the powder won’t adhere properly to achieve the Metallic or Holo effect.
Apply the Base Coat and immediately follow with a thin layer of Top Coat (do not cure in between these steps).
Then cure both layers together for 2 minutes under the LED lamp.
Once cured, the surface should feel dry and smooth — now it's ready for the powder.
Gently rub in your chosen Holo or Metallic powder using the Mineral Bond Applicator for that stunning finish.
