From the wilder and truly bizarre styles, to the more classic looks, we have the biggest selection of glittering and sparkling manicures available! Why rhinestones you may ask? Well, first of all, they are basically tiny jewels for your fingertips! What’s not to love? They give a touch of shine and glamour to your hands. Plus, rhinestones are incredibly versatile – they can be incorporated in intricate and unusual designs but also look great on simple, classic manicures. Not to mention that they are usually used with gel polish which is a lot more durable, and remains flawless at least twice as long as normal polish. So, if you are preparing for a party or a special occasion, why not opt for an eye-catching, glittering manicure? This is especially true for brides. Having your nails on fleek on your special day is just as important as picking the right hairstyle and make up.
