Chrome is having a moment — and your clients want every finish
Cre8tion's chrome powders were the single most-ordered nail-art item at C8 this week. Pearl, champagne, rose gold, chameleon multichrome — the "glazed" and metallic looks all over feeds right now run on a pinch of powder and a no-wipe top. Here's what's moving, straight from this week's orders.
