SNS Pro - Green Book Collection - #108

Code #108 of the SNS Pro Green Book: a dusty rose. 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.

Mauve sits between pink and taupe, which makes it one of the easier shades to sell to a client who finds pink too sweet and nude too plain. It is an office shade in summer and a full-set shade in autumn.

Why this powder

• Fewer steps. Two thin coats of base, two of powder, then file and top coat. No activator coat at any point, and no lamp for the dip.
• Hands and toes in one code. The gel and lacquer duo carries the same shade as the powder, so a client can wear #108 as dip on the hands and lacquer on the toes.
• Acrylic-ready. Sculpt the same powder with monomer when the client wants length rather than an overlay.
• One formula for the five jobs. Bonding, strength, shine, protection and easy removal, with our Nutri-Plus vitamins and minerals in the base and the powder.

Specs for #108

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 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 #108

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 #108, 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 #108 gel, cure the gel top and wipe.
3. Lacquer on the toes. Two coats of the #108 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 #108

Can I buy #108 as part of a set?

Yes. It sits on board 4 of the Green Book, codes #091 to #120, and the board is sold as one bundle in each format, 30 codes at a time. The full 120-code book is also sold as one bundle.

Will the gel and lacquer match the #108 powder?

That is what the code is for. We build all three pieces of #108 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 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 #108 does either job.

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