SENS Aurora Flake base&builder gel Blue – adhesion, structure and shimmer in one
The SENS Aurora Flake base&builder gel Blue belongs to the HEMA-free SENS line from Crystal Nails and combines two functions in one product: the adhesion of a base and the stability of a builder gel – internationally known as base & builder gel. What makes it special are the fine, multicolored flakes in blue: they combine glitter shimmer with a delicate, latte-like coverage. Because the shiny particles sit at several levels within the depth of the material, different light conditions create color reflections of varying intensity – a multidimensional aurora effect instead of flat surface glitter.
The medium viscosity allows easy, even application without running or streaking. The gel adheres optimally to the natural nail plate and at the same time forms a stable foundation for further modeling steps: worn alone as a natural aurora look – a trend that is increasingly popular with clients and professionals alike – or as an effect base under color gel and top coat. The material is soak-off and impresses with outstanding adhesion and durability; when switching materials, the manufacturer recommends a clear base gel as an underlayer to protect the natural nail.
The Aurora Flake line is available in three shades – White, Blue and Rose. Contents: 10 ml.
