Unfortunately, finding a salon where they offer this service and have these magical powders isn't easy and the nail-obsessed turned to YouTube to find out how to DIY it for themselves.

There are many videos on how to use nail powders at home, but one tutorial by twi_star took it a step further. She combined the metallic mirror powder with Sharpie nail art and created the watercolor mani of our dreams. In the video, twi_star didn't have an LED lamp, so she cleverly used a handy LED flashlight to cure the polish.

The results are stunning and we can't wait to give this a try. Watch the video and learn how to get your very own ultra-metallic watercolor nails.
