SNS Pro - Green Book Collection - #033

Green Book #033 is a pale pink, one of the 120 codes in the SNS Pro Green Book, the dip and acrylic powder that sets without an activator. Pick the format on this listing: the powder alone, the matching gel and lacquer duo, or all three as a 3-in-1 set. The shade is the same in each.

Pinks and mauves are 33 of the 120 codes in the Green Book, so this code has close neighbours listed below. Pick by undertone: this one is the shade to sample if you want a pink that reads clearly as pink rather than as a nude.

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 #033 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.

How to apply #033

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 #033, tap, thin base, dip again. File, buff, top coat. There is no activator coat in this routine and nothing to cure.
2. Gel on the hands. Cure a thin gel base, cure two thin coats of the #033 gel, cure the gel top and wipe.
3. Lacquer on the toes. Two coats of the #033 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.

The dip needs a base and a top coat and nothing else: they are under Dip Essentials. Gel base and top for the duo are under Base & Top Gel.

Questions about #033

Is the swatch photo accurate?

It is the best online reference, but a screen is not a nail. For a color decision, match #033 against the physical Green Book. Packaging styles vary by batch; the code and the shade are the same.

Do I need an activator with #033?

No. The powder in the Green Book sets without one. You dip over base, file, and go straight to top coat; the two activator coats of a standard dip service are left out. If your salon runs an activator routine on the 144-shade books, keep it for those and skip it here.

Are the gel and the lacquer the same shade as the powder?

Yes, by design. The same number is printed on the jar, the gel and the lacquer because the three are matched to one color. Resins and pigment loads differ between a powder, a gel and a lacquer, so the match is engineered rather than automatic. Check it on the swatch photo or the physical book, not on a screen.

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