Razzle Dazzle

Razzle Dazzle Gel Nail Polish

The gorgeous Razzle Dazzle is one of the first glitters we added to our Gelous collection and it is a continuous best seller.

Wanderlust

Wanderlust Gel Nail Polish

Wanderlust is a semi-opaque glitter Gel Nail Polish with a dreamy nude undertone. The glitters are holographic so it can be worn with any colour to match, but looks particularly effective with nudes like "Vanilla Latte" or "That's the Clay It Is". Wear it with just one coat to add a sheer layer of sparkle over your nails or do multiple coats for a more opaque finish. In the sunlight, you’ll be mesmerised by the sparkle of Wanderlust!

Starry Night

Starry Night is a black glitter Gel Nail Polish with specks of silver glitter to jazz it up a bit and really lean into that "Starry Night" name. This Gel Nail Polish isn't too out-there, so it's an easy one to use when you're wanting a full glitter gel manicure that suits any occasion.
