“Burgundy Chrome Nails” are THE manicure trend par excellence in winter 2024 – and these are the most beautiful styles

So you style the “Burgundy Chrome Nails” at home

The burgundy chrome manicure can be done easily at home – with the right products and these four steps:

1. Prepare nails: Start with a basic manicure to ensure your nails are clean and well filed. Means: cutting, soaking, removing cuticles, polishing. The chrome finish reflects every nail detail, so it is even more important that the nail surface is as smooth and clean as possible. If you want to treat your hands to extra care in winter, stick to the “Brazilian manicure” formula.

2. Apply Burgundy Foundation: Choose a burgundy polish as a base. Whether you choose a darker or light paint is up to your taste, but make sure it is a rich color so that the chrome effect really comes into its own.

3. Chrome powder or high-gloss paint: There are two methods to achieve the chrome effect: You can either use a chrome powder or an effect paint, which already has a metallic effect. The powder is applied over a layer of semi-dry nail polish and rubbed with a special applicator until the desired shine is achieved. But if you’re looking for a quicker (and easier) option, a chrome effect top coat is the way to go.

4. Sealing: Finally, apply a coat of top coat to protect the finish and ensure your nails retain their shine for longer.

Care tip:

The chrome finish requires some maintenance to keep your nails looking flawless for longer. Here are two tips to extend the life of your manicure:

• Refresh the top coat regularly: Apply a top coat every few days to protect the chrome effect and prevent the shine from fading.
• Avoid hot water: Prolonged contact with hot water can weaken nail polish. It is therefore better to wear gloves when washing dishes.
