15 Glitter Nail Polish Ideas You’ll Swoon Over

Glitter polish is both pretty and attention-grabbing. We love it when the sun hits our nails and you see that little bit of diamond dust sparkle back in our faces! Here are some beautiful, sparkling, designs that you’re going to want to try right now!

Essie winter nail polish, winter trend 2019, glitter finish, tied and blue

This polish reminds me of a beautiful summer starry sky. It’s absolutely gorgeous. It would be perfect for an evening out in the winter, despite it looking for a summer night sky. It would also be a beautiful complimentary color to a navy prom dress.

It’s by far my favorite color, but I’m biased. I’m a Virgo and my birthstone is sapphire.  

Princess Glitter

I LOVE these nails! They are an absolutely gorgeous shade of purple and who doesn’t love glitter? This polish is chock-full of it and looks stunning!

My 10-year-old daughter would go nuts over these. They’re a tame enough color that I’d be comfortable letting her do the flashiness of the style. She has several outfits that these would look perfect with.

Kiss Me Under The Light Of A Thousand Stars

I adore these nails. I’m going to have to buy this polish for myself! I can’t wait to try it! I love silver sparkle. It goes with any outfit. It brings style to any outfit. 

Silver and glitter just work. They’re my favorite combination.

Ophelia

I can’t quite place the exact color of this polish, but it’s beautiful. It looks to have a little purple, black and silver in it. Another one I’m going to have to try myself!

If anyone else gives this a try, please put the results in the comments. I would love to see it. 

“High Contrast” A purple to neon pink thermal with silver flakes

These are adorable! I’m curious how the ombre effect works, but I love the style. Even with the brightness, I think this is another style my daughter would love. She’s a true girly girl at heart and adores pink and purple. These are the best of both worlds for her! (Mom’s going to have to up her game to accomplish these!)

Juliette

This color is so pretty. A rose gold shade that reminds me of a brand new penny. This color could go with just about any outfit. It’s a beautiful complementary shade.

Strawberry Daiquiri

This color reminds me of beautiful roses. Perfectly shaded pink. Perfect amount of sparkle. I want to buy this color for myself right now! (Though I’m sure it wouldn’t stay mine for long. My daughter would find it in no time! I think this would look so cute on little nails!)

Shattered Opal – Opalescent Iridescent Glitter Nail Polish

This nude color leaves just enough shade on your nails to highlights the bigger flakes of glitter in the polish. It really makes the glitter stand out without making it seem gaudy. Bigger flakes of glitter are hard to pull off on fingernails because they’re so small. But these work perfectly.

Watch Me Sparkle

Diamonds and shine and glitter and holy hell it’s New Year’s Eve!

This is the perfect shade for the New Year’s Eve party we can’t wait to hit! It would also be a stunning color on a bride for a winter wedding. The silver would flow beautifully not only with her white dress, but the icy winter wedding decor as well.

Rainbow Snow

Another New Year’s Eve perfect shade. Silver and glitter and sparkle! Silver glitter is one of my favorite shades to wear because it just seems to catch the sun’s light perfectly. The glitter catches it, the silver catches it. I just feel like it’s the best combination if you’re looking for attention-getting nails.

Mega Flame Glitter Polish

Another beautiful pink rose shade. I adore this color and feel like it would work with nearly any outfit. It’s such a complementary shade that you wouldn’t have to worry about it clashing with anything. You could wear it as long as it lasts! (If you’re like me though, you have to fix, or redo your nails about once a week. Not sure if I’m just that rough with my hands, or if it’s because it’s cheap polish, but it always seems to chip or peel right away.)

Autumn Sunset

This color is stunning. I absolutely love it. The mix of purple and blue is perfect and doesn’t lean towards one or the other too heavily. The sparkle in it isn’t too heavy to where it pulls away from the color of the polish itself. It’s heavy enough to show that it’s there, though. I love this one!

Vanity – Deep Purple Holographic

This. Color. Is. GORGEOUS. I’m going to buy it for myself immediately. I just have to see if it’s as stunning in person as it is in the photos! I can’t wait to try it out! Hoping it looks the same!

Best Witches

The name of this one alone makes me giggle a little. It makes me think of Hocus Pocus and Sarah Jessica Parker’s character. This seems like it would be the perfect shade for her! (If she didn’t do the black thing because she’s a witch, of course!) 

Joking aside, this color is beautiful. A light purple that would be perfect to add to gold for any Minnesota Vikings fan out there.

“Deafening Silence” A periwinkle blue strong holo

I love the periwinkle blue color of this polish. I wonder if it looks the same in person. I always worry that a color is made to look a million times better in photos then it will in person. I think that’s part of why I’ve never been willing to buy the expensive nail polish. I always worry that I’ll be wasting my money.

This particular polish is $14.00, which is a lot for a bottle of polish. If anyone has it or tries it, I’d love some feedback in the comments on whether it’s worth the cost!
