SNS Pro - Beige Book Collection - #058

Code #058 of the SNS Pro Beige Book: a dark red. Every code in this book is sold four ways on one listing: the 1.5 oz pre-bonded dipping powder, the 0.5 oz GelStar gel, the gel and lacquer duo, or the 3-in-1 set with powder, gel and lacquer matched to one shade.

This is the shade for a client who asks for red and does not want to talk about it further. It sits well next to a nude on a French-style accent set, and it is a safe pick for toes because the lacquer in the duo is the same code.

Why this powder

• One code, three pieces. The powder, the gel and the lacquer of #058 are built to one shade, which SNS calls MasterMatch, so the hands and the toes match without a re-swatch.
• Pre-bonded Gelous Color powder. The jar is our Nutri-Plus formula, and we formulate the base and the powder with vitamins and minerals, with vitamin E and calcium in the GelStar gel.
• Dip or sculpt. The powder dips over base and sets with activator, and it also sculpts with monomer like an acrylic, so one jar covers both services.
• Buy only what you use. The gel is sold alone, so a gel salon can carry the whole book without the powder.

Specs for #058

The 3-in-1 is the powder, the gel and the lacquer of one code in one box. The GelStar gel on its own is the cheapest way to own the code. Prices are on the selector above and are the same for every code in the book.

How to apply #058

Prep once: push back the cuticle, shape, buff the shine off the plate and wipe with alcohol. Then the service decides the piece.

1. Dip. A thin coat of base, dip into #058, tap off the excess, repeat once. Activator over the whole nail, file and buff, a second coat of activator, then top coat. No lamp.
2. Gel. Gel base, cured. Two thin coats of the #058 GelStar, cured after each. Gel top, cured, then wipe the tacky layer.
3. Lacquer. Two coats of the #058 lacquer, air-dried. Top coat optional.

Removal for dip and gel is an acetone soak, never a peel.

The dip needs a base, an activator and a top coat: they are under Dip Essentials. Gel base and top for the GelStar are under Base & Top Gel.

Questions about #058

Can I buy #058 as part of a set?

Yes. It sits on board 2 of the Beige Book, codes #037 to #072, and the board is sold as one bundle in each format, 36 codes at a time. The full 144-code book is also sold as one bundle.

How long does #058 last, and how does it come off?

Most clients get a few weeks from a dip set, though prep and lifestyle move that a lot. The dip and the gel both come off with an acetone soak; the lacquer with regular remover. Never peel a dip or gel set, it takes the surface of the nail with it.

The SNS dip essentials: EA Bond on the bare plate, Gel Base for each dip, Sealer Dry as the activator, and Gel Top to finish. They are the same bottles for every code in the Beige Book, and they sit in the complementary products on this page and under Dip Essentials.
