SNS Pro - Pink Book Collection - #086

Code #086 of the SNS Pro Pink Book: a rose pink. 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.

A pink like this is booked for everyday hands, for bridal parties and for the client who wants color without a statement. It is one of 21 pinks and mauves in the Pink Book, so compare it against the codes below before you commit a whole wall.

Why this powder

• The same shade in gel and lacquer. Every piece of #086 is matched to one color, which is why the same number is printed on the jar, the gel and the lacquer.
• Built as a system. Our Nutri-Plus system adds vitamins and minerals to the base coat and the powder, and the GelStar gel is formulated with vitamin E and calcium.
• Two services from one jar. Dip it over base with no lamp, or pick it up with monomer and sculpt it as an acrylic.
• Four ways to buy. Powder, gel only, duo or the 3-in-1, at the same price for every code in the book.

Specs for #086

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 #086

Start with a clean, dry plate: cuticles pushed back, nail shaped, shine buffed off, alcohol wipe. Then pick the service.

1. Dip on the hands. Thin base, dip #086, tap, thin base, dip again. Activator, file, buff, activator again, top coat. Nothing to cure.
2. Gel on the hands. Cure a thin gel base, cure two thin coats of the #086 GelStar, cure the gel top and wipe.
3. Lacquer on the toes. Two coats of the #086 lacquer, left to air-dry.

To remove the dip or the gel, soak in acetone. Do not peel; it takes the top layer of the plate with it.

For the dip you need our base, the Sealer Dry activator and a top coat, all under Dip Essentials. The gel base and gel top for the GelStar are under Base & Top Gel.

Questions about #086

Is the swatch photo accurate?

It is the best online reference, but a screen is not a nail. For a color decision, match #086 against the physical Pink Book. Packaging styles vary by batch; the code and the shade are the same.

How long does #086 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.

Which liquids go with #086?

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 Pink Book, and they sit in the complementary products on this page and under Dip Essentials.

Color swatches vary with screens and lighting. For accuracy, match against the physical SNS Pink Book. Packaging styles may vary by batch.
