The 14 Neon Glitter Nails Ideas 2024
We’re obsessed with bold colors and dazzling sparkle. So, it was only natural to round up the top fourteen neon glitter nails ideas. They’re the best of both worlds, combining intense shades with lots of twinkle.
The Top Neon Glitter Nails Ideas
The truth of the matter is that not everyone is ready for blaring colors loaded up with shimmer. Not to worry, you can always start slow and work your way up to wow! Our first few neon glitter nail ideas are excellent for working up the courage to go further.
For those of you who are ready to glam to the max, keep reading. It gets pretty spicy here!
Neon Nudes and Hints of Neon
Maybe you’ve heard of the three-dot tattoo that means “my crazy life.” Take inspiration from that and add a few dots of color and glitter to a perfectly respectable nude manicure. These “subtle” details look nice near the cuticle but also wear well on the tips.
Neon Moons and Stars
Again, do a nude or French manicure with your favorite peach or pink shade. Then, raise the wow factor with tiny neon yellow stars or crescent moons. Feel free to choose a different neon shade as there are many different colors to enjoy.
For example, we’re passionate about glow-in-the-dark gels with reflective glitter:
LDS Reflective Glitter Glow in the Dark Gel Polish
There are six shades in total – all stunners. You've never seen anything like this flashy polish!
The gels stay shiny and bright for up to 3 weeks on your nails. Moreover, they are easy for both beginners and professionals to apply.
Neon Glitter Tips
How can you get the perfect curved shape for putting neon glitter polish near the cuticle or at the tip? If you can find them at the office supply store, we highly recommend ring binder page reinforcement stickers. Snip them in half and stick them in place.
You can also use pieces of scotch tape to do perfectly straight stripes. Plus, there’s liquid latex to mask off the skin around your nails and reduce cleanup time. However, make sure there’s no sticky residue left over before you brush on a top coat.
Neon Flames, Twists, and Swirls
You don’t have to be an expert to draw flames, twists, or swirls with neon glitter polish. Gels make it easy because the designs won’t dry until you cure them. If you don’t like the results, you can wipe them off and start again.
Nevertheless, neon nail lacquer produces fabulous results and you don’t need as much equipment to use it. There’s no nail lamp needed, for example. Plus, even though the lacquer only lasts about a week, that gives you the reason you need to try something new.
LDS Healthy Gel & Lacquer Neon Collection
Someone asked why bottles of gel and lacquer are sold in the same set together. Perhaps it’s that a person could use the lacquer to touch up the gel.
If you choose to get the whole collection here, you’ll have a rainbow of neon colors to experiment with. And after you finish reading this article, you’ll have lots of nail ideas to try.
Just be sure to grab the correct bottle. The gels are in opaque containers to protect them from UV rays.
Camo Glitter Neon
Camouflage in neon colors doesn’t offer much concealment. Instead, everyone’s going to be noticing your dramatic manicure!
Add texture with sugar glitter powder and you’ll have 3D nails.
Sugar Glitter Kit
This kit has a dozen shades of finely textured sparkles to take any manicure to the next level. The powder is easy to use. Brush on a coat of gel polish, sprinkle the powder, then cure the nail.
Rainbow Ombre Dazzle
If you’ve never tried doing gradient nails, now’s a good time. Neon colors make for eye-catching results!
Here’s a brief video to show you how easy it is to do neon ombre nails.
Once you finish the gradient design, bling it up with a rainbow glitter topcoat.
LDS 03 Murrey Flash - Gel Polish Aurora Top Coat
The Aurora top coat has a glossy finish like other clear coats, but that’s where the similarity ends. It’s packed with shimmer to bring out the best in every shade underneath. Furthermore, it’s compatible with all gel colors or can be used by itself. Check out the entire twelve-color collection.

All six of these brilliant neon glitter powders are compatible with gel polish and builder gel. They also work with dip powder nails and acrylics. If you want to encapsulate the color in clear acrylic, you'll need a liquid monomer. Otherwise, apply a gel top coat, sprinkle the glitter, then cure the nails.
