What are Glazed donut nails?
Glazed donut nails depict transparent white or skin-colored polish overlaid with a pearlescent chrome powder. The combination results in a radiant, freshly hydrated finish—simulating the reflective glaze on a donut. In contrast to the traditional metallics, glazed donut nails retain the subtle and delicate feeling, they do not quite catch the light as every metal but they change color with the light you see. I would say it fits more to a brunch event with people being so curious on how I did it to my nails.
How to Get Hailey Bieber’s Glazed Donut Nails?
Hailey Bieber’s unforgettable glazed donut nails are achieved by using gel polish, a chrome powder, and an LED lamp. The first step is to treat nails with a file, buffer, and cuticle care. Proceed with a clear gel base coat. Add one or two coats of sheer white or nude gel polish (Hailey’s favorite: OPI’s Funny Bunny). Then, coat the nails with a shiny gel top coat and cure, clean the nails, and use chrome powder on each nail for the maximum effect. Clean off the extra powder, coat another top coat, cure it once more, and finish with cuticle oil for the shine and the nourishment.
How Do You Ask for Glazed Donut Nails?
Going to the salon, you can tell your manicurist that you want a “white sheer gel polish with pearlescent chrome powder on top” look. Bring some images from TikTok or Instagram of Hailey Bieber’s glazed donut nails to show. Give the stylist an idea that you want the soft and luminous finish only; a mirror chrome or normal beige cannot be your choice. Nail artists might be familiar with this look, but they can’t be sure unless you provide them with some references. Moreover, if you are concerned about the accessibility of the chrome powder, bring your own one along with you.
What Does Hailey Bieber Use for Glazed Donut Nails?
Nail artist of Hailey, Zola Ganzorigt, made the debut design at the Met Gala. OPI GelColor Stay Strong Base Coat, OPI GelColor in Funny Bunny, OPI Stay Shiny Top Coat, and OPI Chrome Effects in Tin Man Can were the products she utilized. The trick is layering: base, color, top coat, chrome powder, brushing off the rest, then one more top coat for that typical glazed shine. You may change brands but use sheer gel polish and a high-quality chrome powder for the closest result to the original.
