Dip powder manicure is a type of manicure that lasts longer than a regular manicure and is somewhere between a regular manicure and a fake acrylic nail. Dip powder nails are bonded using a glue called cyanoacrylate, which is also the main ingredient in Krazy Glue. Dip powder polymers are stronger than those found in gel polish, and therefore, dip manicures will generally last longer, up to five weeks if properly cared for. Dip powder nails are also long-lasting and chip-free. However, dip powder manicures can be tough on nails and can be easily contaminated if not handled with care. Some cheaper dip powders can contain MMD, which is extremely harmful to natural nails and banned in NYC. Dip powder manicures can also be unsanitary if the powder is not in a separate container that the finger is dipped in or sprinkled over a separate container.
