SNS Pro - Yellow Green Book Collection - #098

Code #098 of the SNS Pro Yellow Green Book: a pale pink. This is a book whose powder needs no activator coat, and every code in it is sold three ways on one listing: the 1.5 oz powder, the gel and lacquer duo, or the 3-in-1 set with all three pieces 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 27 pinks and mauves in the Yellow Green Book, so compare it against the codes below before you commit a whole wall.

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 #098 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 #098

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 #098

Prep is the same for all three formats: push the cuticle back, shape, take the shine off the plate, wipe with alcohol.

1. Dip. Two rounds of thin base and #098 powder, then file, buff and top coat. This powder sets without an activator, so that step is simply left out. No lamp.
2. Gel. Gel base, two thin coats of the #098 gel and a gel top, each cured, then wipe the tacky layer.
3. Lacquer. Two air-dried coats of the #098 lacquer for toes or touch-ups.

Both the dip and the gel come off with an acetone soak.

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 #098

Is the swatch photo accurate?

It is the best online reference, but a screen is not a nail. For a color decision, match #098 against the physical Yellow Green Book. Packaging styles vary by batch; the code and the shade are the same.

Will the gel and lacquer match the #098 powder?

That is what the code is for. We build all three pieces of #098 to one shade, which SNS calls MasterMatch, so the powder on the hands and the lacquer on the toes read as one color. Match against the physical Yellow Green Book or the swatch photo above rather than a phone screen when the decision matters.

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 #098 does either job.

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