Cloud Nails Design
Gel, nail lacquer, dip and acrylic, 240 shade numbers
What is Cloud, and what does C8 carry?
Cloud Nails Design is a matching color line. Each shade has one number, and that number comes as a soak off gel color, a nail lacquer and an acrylic and dipping powder. C8 carries 246 Cloud items: all 240 shade numbers, the full sets, a color book and a color chart. The gel and lacquer duo for any shade is $3.90 right now, down from $6.50, and the 2oz powder is $11.50.
The short version. Cloud is a deep, low-cost shade system. You can match a client's hands and toes by number, and restock one shade at a time instead of buying a whole display.
How the Cloud line is organized
Cloud comes in two collections of 120 shades each. The Florida Collection runs from 001 to 120, and the Hawaii Collection picks up at 121 and runs to 240. The numbers do not repeat between the two, so a shade number alone tells you which collection it belongs to.
Every shade has its own page at C8. On that page you pick either the duo, which is the gel and lacquer pair, or the 2oz powder. That makes Cloud easy to restock: your reorder list is a list of numbers, and you only buy the colors your salon actually uses.
What Cloud is known for
One number across gel, lacquer and powder
The same number is printed on the gel bottle, the lacquer bottle and the powder jar. A client who wore a shade in gel on her hands can get the same number in lacquer on her toes. The color charts are labeled for gel, nail lacquer, dip and acrylic for the same reason.
Two collections, 120 shades each
Florida and Hawaii are separate 120 shade sets, each with its own full set and color charts.
A color book and a chart for the chair
The Cloud color book shows 120 colors for $60, and the color chart is $25. Both come in a Florida or a Hawaii version, so clients can point at the exact number they want.
Full sets for opening a station
Each collection comes as a full set of 120 matching duos with a set of color boards, $450 at C8 right now, down from $750. There is also a full set of 120 dip powders at $1,314 that comes with the 120 shade duo set free.
Tech favorites at C8
Everything below is listed at C8 at the prices shown, checked the day this post went live. Where a compare-at price exists, the saving is the real difference between the two.
120 shades, gel and lacquer 0.5oz, with color boards
Every Florida shade from 001 to 120 in both gel and lacquer, plus the boards to show them. That works out to $3.75 a duo, and it is the fastest way to put the whole collection on a station.
Florida full set $450
Hawaii Collection, full set of 120 duos
Florida 056, a pumpkin orange, duo
Hawaii 159, silver glitter, duo
Color book, 120 colors
$60
Color chart, 120 colors
$25
Florida 056 is a bright pumpkin orange, which makes it an easy pick for fall nails; the full fall nails shop has more warm shades. If you are building a full service around Cloud color, finish with a top coat you trust, and keep a milky white nail polish on hand for French and soft nail work.
What C8 customers actually order
Over the last 90 days, C8 customers placed 32 orders with Cloud in them and picked 76 different shade numbers. No single shade was ordered more than four times. Florida 056, the orange above, was ordered most.
That spread is the point of a numbered line. Salons use Cloud to fill in the exact shades they need, not to buy one trend color. If the matching number idea is what you like here, Nitro and NotPolish run their own numbered systems, and we have written both up.
