Sparkle & Co. Dip Powder Delicate dp.45 Cloudy Everyday Pink

While in quarantine I decided now was the time to grow out my nails. Regular polish, and gel polish i always just peel off and can still bite my nails so i wanted something hard that would stop me. I decided to do dip powder as it seemed relatively simple. I wanted a more natural color and this ‘delicate’ is the perfect color! Its a nice light pink that still gives your nails color but wont make them pop (which i wanted for my short little nails). When i received this the packaging was adorable to begin with, came with a little note, stickers, and even an extra little dip! That right there made me love this company. When i started to put it on it was so much easier than i thought! Went on nice and smooth. Can easily layer it too if needed. I figured two coats work perfect for me. I did end up redoing a couple nails since putting them on because the first time was not the best ( a bit sloppy on the edges). You just file down the top coat then you can soak it off and it wipes right off! But if you do not file off the top coat, it will not soak off. I was practicing with another brand on my boyfriend and Sparkle and co is so much easier to use, it applies smoother and more even and you can fix your mistakes a bit better too. Overall very impressed with this! Will continue to only by from this seller here on out. Excited to try out bolder colors once my nails get a bit longer! I rarely write reviews and when i do they are typically short. But i felt this brand deserved it:) the color (and packaging) is also the exact same in the picture as it is when received and applied! Love it.

Oh my gosh. This is an amazing product. As all of us are stuck in quarantine, with no end in sight, we miss our salons more than we thought. I was disgusted with my nails. I always get my nails dipped because how long they last, while keeping my nails break free.I bought a starter kit from another brand, and was disappointed in the fact it didn’t come with the actual powder. I came back to search for a powder that was neutral and a quick delivery.....VERY important. Sparkle and Co showed they could deliver in about 4-6 days. We all know how hard it is with amazon being backed up with deliveries.Well, I received the powder in only 3 days! Yay! The packaging was adorable! The personalized card, so sweet and thoughtful! The extra gift, how wonderful ❤️I used a different brand of base coat and activator with my Sparkle and Co powder.....perfection. Love the color, and the powder was SO EASY to work with. I wish I would have bought my entire kit through Sparkle and Co, because the off brand top coat SUCKS. It’s ok.....the powder is so good, I’m going without a top coat for now.THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!!

This was my first attempt at doing my own acrylics, (from my understanding, 'dip nails' and what we typically refer to as 'acrylics' are both technically acrylic, just applied with different techniques.) Dip nails require far less skill than the standard process with a brush.I'm really happy with how my first set came out! It's really easy and if you take your time you can totally do a salon-quality manicure on your first try. Although the entire process took me like 4 hours because I was meticulous with the shaping and not using an e-file.I didn't get a good photo of this powder before I added an abstract design with nail polish, but I wouldn't even consider this a pink- which is a good thing, it's really just a barely there natural nude, which was exactly what I wanted as the base for my design. But it does look lovely by itself as well.They pack this jar so full that when I opened the package there was powder on the outside of the jar, and you can't open it or dip your nail in without powder spilling over, so I'd lay a clean piece of paper under the jar so you can pour the overflowing powder back in when you're done.

Works fine. Picture must be three to 4 layers. I prefer my nails not so thick.

It’s been a while since I was this impressed with an Amazon purchase. This was so above my expectations and the packaging was so pretty it would have made a great gift. It was truly a gift to myself! I used the delicate pink dip with the Sparkle & Co. base and activator and honestly like this better than the pricy Kiara Sky system I’ve been using. So pretty and nude. A natural nail that’s better than natural could ever be on its own but without screaming ‘acrylic nail’. With the additional purchase of one white dip powder to make the smile line, this will also make a French tip style possible. I’m already browsing Sparkle & Co for what color I want to buy next.

I ordered color #45, delicate pink. I always use Kiara Sky products and love them, and although Kiara Sky is usually $5 cheaper, I saw so many good reviews for Sparkle and Co., I decided to give them a try. Most of the reviews mentioned the nice handwritten note and the free gift, which was usually a trial sample of a different powder color, a cuticle remover, pop socket or other small gift. So I thought, why not pay the extra $5, try it out and see if it’s a great product, buy American made products and receive a free gift? Well, I have to say, the color was nice-a little pinker than I’d hoped but still nice...it was easy to use but very much like Kiara Sky. And the only thing free I could see that was in the envelope was a sticker that said “nailed it-sparkle and co.” That being said, I think I’ll go back to Kiara Sky. There just wasn’t enough of a difference or improvement that would make me want to pay anymore from $5 to $8 for basically the same product. Besides that, I get Kiara Sky in 1 to 3 days. I ordered this Sparkle and Co dip on a Tuesday..got it 10 days later! Not too impressed.UPDATE.: After using the Delicate Pink color, I've lowered my review to 2 stars. The dip went from a light pink to a streaky yellowish in 5 days.
