SNS Pro - Yellow Green Book Collection - #038

The rosy nude at #038 in the SNS Pro Yellow Green Book. Three ways to buy it on this one listing: the 1.5 oz dip and acrylic powder that needs no activator, the soak-off gel and air-dry lacquer duo, or the 3-in-1 set with all three. Same number, same shade, whichever you pick.

A nude like this is the workhorse of a color wall: full sets, French bases, and the client who wants her nails to look like her nails, only better. The Yellow Green Book carries 28 nudes and browns, so compare the neighbours below to pick the undertone that suits the hand.

Why this powder

• Skip the activator. This powder sets on its own over base, so the service is two coats shorter than a standard dip and there is no activator bottle to buy or to spill.
• The same shade in gel and lacquer. Every piece of #038 is matched to one color, which is why the same number is printed on the jar, the gel and the lacquer.
• Two services from one jar. Dip it over base with no lamp, or sculpt it with monomer as an acrylic.
• Built as a system. We formulate the base and the powder with our Nutri-Plus system, which adds vitamins and minerals, and the powder combines bonding, strength, shine, protection and easy removal.

Specs for #038

The 3-in-1 is the powder, the gel and the lacquer of one code in one box. There is no gel-only variant in the Yellow Green Book; the gel comes in the duo or the set. Prices are on the selector above and are the same for every code in the book.

How to apply #038

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 #038, tap off the excess, repeat once. File and buff, then top coat. No activator and no lamp.
2. Gel. Gel base, cured. Two thin coats of the #038 gel, cured after each. Gel top, cured, then wipe the tacky layer.
3. Lacquer. Two coats of the #038 lacquer, air-dried. Top coat optional.

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

For the dip you need our base and top coat, both under Dip Essentials; there is no activator to buy. The gel base and gel top for the duo are under Base & Top Gel.

Questions about #038

Why does #038 look different on my screen?

Because screens shift color. The swatch photo above is the closest reference we can give online, and the physical Yellow Green Book is the one to use for a client decision. Packaging may vary by batch; the shade does not.

Is this a dip powder or an acrylic powder?

Both. Over base it works as a dip overlay; with monomer it sculpts like an acrylic. One jar of #038 does either job.

How long does #038 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.

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