Nail polish has been making our nails look gorgeous as early as 3000 BC, so we've had a LOT of time to make it even better.

We love using glitter nail polish at work, for events, and for everyday life. There are tons of options available online, so we went through the top 50 nail polishes and found the best 5 glitter nail polishes that you'll love.

LECHAT Perfect Match Nail Polish

Rock your #OOTD with this beautiful glitter nail polish in hundreds of colors

The LECHAT Perfect Match Nail Polish was our favorite glitter polish because it was simple to apply, didn't run, and lasted a long time.

Best Overall

Of all the products we tested, we loved the LECHAT polish the most. Each polish comes with color-matched nail lacquer. This polish is easy to apply and soak off and helps you get long-lasting high-gloss shine for weeks. We felt like the Hologram Diamond color was stunningly gorgeous and really lives up to its name, being almost distractingly shiny. We recommend trying 2-3 coats for optimal coverage.

I could see this being suitable for something as important as your wedding day, but can also be used as a regular fashion pick-me-up on days where your outfit isn’t feeling quite as fabulous as usual.

Pros:

Available in 200+ colors
Easy to apply, quick to soak off
Long-lasting shine
Comes with a color-matched nail lacquer (regular polish)
LED and UV curable
Classy but not too much

Cons:

Ideally used with a UV light for the polish to set correctly

Our #2 pick is the Color Club Halographic Hues Nail Polish which comes in 250 shades and shines like a diamond in the sunlight.

Best Polish for Outdoor Events

We loved the Color Club polish because it feels like a much more expensive product than it is. In just 2 coats, it looked fully finished and went on smoothly. Of course, it’s always a great idea to add a topcoat with 1-2 more coats.

We recommend trying the Harp On It shade for a gorgeous shine. This has to be one of the prettiest polishes we’ve ever purchased, and we will be back for more shades. In the sun it shines like the star that we know you are.

Pros:

No formaldehyde, toluene, or DBP chemicals
Vegan, cruelty-free, and not tested on animals
Rich color shades look gorgeous
Made in the USA
Free of common allergens
Available in 250+ shades

Cons:

Looks dull under fluorescent lights

Channel your inner Tinkerbell and embrace the bling of this glitter polish from Zoya. We loved the Ginni shade, which is a pink that’s dark enough not to be reminiscent of Barbie but light enough to not look dismal. It almost looks like a neutral polish except for the pop of glitter in this polish. The texture of your nails post-manicure will be touchable, and you’ll love the matte shimmer.

Pros:

Comes in several glitter matte polish colors
Free of formaldehyde, DBP, Toulene, Lead, parabens, Xylene, and Lead
Only needs 2 coats for full coverage

Cons:

Does not have the shiny glass look some women like
This polish took some scrubbing to remove

Classiest Glitter Nail Polish

For the lady looking for a creamy cashmere polish, this Birthday Suit shade is IT. The polish feels high-quality as you sweep it on your nails, and the micro-flakes give it a subtle glimmer. We can see this being worn to a corporate event or even a red-carpet party.

It oozes with sophistication because it’s sparkly but not over-the-top like some cheaper polishes. We didn’t feel like the texture was gritty and it was surprisingly easy to remove.

High-quality ingredients
Satisfaction guarantee
Vegan, non-toxic, and cruelty-free

The Essie Nail Polish with a glossy shine finish comes in 25 girly shades that are sure to catch anyone's attention.

Most Eye-Catching Nail Polish

Find on Amazon

We loved that this polish has such a glossy, glassy looking finish that catches the light beautifully. They have colors including pinks, purples, neutrals, and reds, we loved the drama of the Fashion Flares color – it looks just like confetti. We felt like this polish was really attention-grabbing because of the metallic notes under the glitter, and it was easy to apply and remove. Next time, we may try applying this as a second coat to a basic color nail-like taupe.

Pros:
