SNS Pro - Green Book Collection - #051

#051 is a pale mint from the SNS Pro Green Book. The powder dips with no activator and sculpts with monomer, the gel is a soak-off gel polish and the lacquer air-dries, and all three are matched to this one shade. Choose the format above; the price is the same for every code in the book.

Greens are a small family in the Green Book, so this one has few close substitutes. It is a full-set color for spring and summer and a strong accent nail against a nude.

Why this powder

• No activator step. Base, powder, base, powder, file, top coat. The two activator coats of a standard dip service are gone, along with the smell at the table.
• One code, three formats. The powder, the gel and the lacquer of #051 are built to one shade, so the hands and the toes match without a re-swatch.
• Dip or sculpt. The powder dips over base, and it also sculpts with monomer like an acrylic, so one jar covers both services.
• Our 5-in-1 formula. Bonding, strength, shine, protection and an easier soak-off removal in one powder, and our Nutri-Plus system adds vitamins and minerals to the base coat and the powder.

How to apply #051

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 #051 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 #051 gel and a gel top, each cured, then wipe the tacky layer.
3. Lacquer. Two air-dried coats of the #051 lacquer for toes or touch-ups.

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

Pair the powder with a base and a top coat from Dip Essentials, and the gel with a base and top from Base & Top Gel. No activator is needed with this book.

Questions about #051

Which board is #051 on?

Board 2, which runs #031 to #060. The board is sold as one bundle in the same formats as this listing, so it is a way to fill a quarter of a Green Book wall in one order. The full book of 120 codes is sold the same way.

How do I remove #051?

Acetone soak for the dip and the gel, ordinary remover for the lacquer. Wear is a few weeks for most clients, more or less depending on prep and what the hands do all day.

Do I need an activator with #051?

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.
