Blues

Blues here run from sky and sea through sapphire, dark nights and deep navy, with pearl, marble effect and cat eye blues that pull a band of light across the nail. Teal is filed on this shelf, not under Greens, so stop hunting for it. Formats cover soak off gel, nail lacquer, matching trios and dip powder. The shop by color hub maps every family.

Frequently Asked Questions about Blues

Will a dark navy stain the natural nail after removal?

Heavily pigmented blues can leave a faint cast on a bare plate, usually after a soak off done without a base coat or after filing down into the color layer. Lay a base coat every time, break the surface before soaking, and buff lightly rather than scraping. Any cast that does appear fades as the plate rehydrates over a few days.

The cat eye blues look flat in the product photo. What do they do on the nail?

A cat eye reads as a plain dark blue in a photo because the band only exists once a magnet pulls the particles into a line and the lamp locks it there. A bottle cannot show that. Same story with the chameleon and mermaid blues, which throw a green or violet flash at an angle a front on shot misses.

Is teal filed under Blue here or under Green?

Under Blue. Teal reads as a blue green and shoppers look for it on both shelves, so C8 files it here by convention and keeps it in one place. If you want the greener end of that range, sage, olive and mint sit on the Greens page. Both shelves were tagged from the bottle photo, not from the product name.

How do salons restock blues across gel, lacquer and dip at once?

Matching trios pair a gel, a lacquer and a dip in one blue, so a single line item covers three services and the shade matches across all three. The shelf runs soak off gel, lacquer, matching trios and dip powder, so start by filtering to the service you are doing. No license is needed to buy, and trade pricing is arranged separately.
