SNS PRO Sculpt Poly Gel – 24 Color Collection

SNS PRO Sculpt Poly Gel, 24-Color Collection. Twenty-four sculpting-gel shades in 15 mL (0.5 oz) brush bottles, a swatch book to sell from, and the presentation box, formulated HEMA-free and TPO-free. It is the whole poly gel line in one order, for a salon adding sculpted extensions and overlays to the menu.

What it does

• Sculpts length and structure. A gel thick enough to hold its shape as a bead: place it, shape it with a brush, cure it under a UV/LED lamp. Extensions over a form, overlays on the natural nail, and repairs.
• Lightweight on the nail. Our packaging puts it plainly: stronger than hard gel and more flexible than acrylic. The finished nail doesn't carry the weight of an acrylic set.
• Control at the brush. The gel doesn't run and nothing sets until the lamp, so there is time to place the apex and thin the edges before curing.
• HEMA-free and TPO-free. We formulate the line without HEMA, the small monomer most often named when a client reacts to gel, and without TPO, the photoinitiator. Stated as what is left out, not as a promise that nobody can react.
• Bottle, not tube. Each shade is in a 15 mL bottle with a brush in the cap, the same format as our gel color, so it sits in a bottle rack and pours a clean bead.

What's in the box

The 24 shades

Numbered 1 to 24 on the swatch book. 1 is clear; 2 and 3 are milky and soft white; 4 to 7 are sheer pinks and 8 is the one bright pink of the set; 9 to 16 run from pale pink through peach to nude; 17 to 21 are deeper pinks and nudes; 22, 23 and 24 carry a shimmer. Nothing dark, nothing opaque: it is a natural-enhancement palette, built so a sculpted nail reads as the client's own.

How to use

1. Prep the nail and apply a thin coat of gel base; cure.
2. For length, fit a dual form or a paper form. For an overlay, work on the nail.
3. Brush a bead of Sculpt Poly Gel onto the nail or into the form.
4. Shape it with a flat sculpting brush dampened in slip solution or alcohol: apex over the stress point, thin toward the cuticle and the sidewalls.
5. Cure under a UV/LED lamp for the full cycle. Use a low-heat setting if the client feels the cure.
6. Remove the form, file the shape, wipe, then color if wanted and a gel top coat, cured.

To remove, file the bulk down, leave a thin layer over the natural nail, and soak, or fill over that layer at the next visit.

Best for

Salons adding a poly gel service and wanting the full palette and the swatch book on day one; techs who sculpt in acrylic and want the same length with a lamp instead of a monomer; anyone who needs a HEMA-free option for extensions. For single tubes rather than a set, see our LuxeHybrid UV Gel line.
