Flaked Enamel

Glitter enamel, which once shared the shelves with holographic enamel, now also gives room for flaked enamel. The news follows the trend of nail polishes that have sought in technology increasingly amazing and eye-filling effects.

This nail polish acts as a covering, which should be applied over the common nail polish.


Flocked enamel contains fine aluminum particles that appear to be small pieces of iridescent color paper mixed with a base. It is these irregularly sized particles, also called "flakies", that reflect light and create such a flocked effect.

There are several options of flake enamel with different shades and very colorful. It is worth using the covering over your favorite nail polish and make it look new. If you want to highlight the shiny effect, dark enamels are most recommended.

Take advantage of the trend of flaked enamel, which lets you play with colors, make unusual and quite different combinations. Best of all, make your nails full of shine.
