Akzentz Gel play Glitz Pink Diamond
Akzentz Gel Play Glitz: Pink Diamond
Gel Play Glitz Pink Diamond is a high-intensity glitter gel designed for maximum sparkle and full-coverage brilliance. While the "Leaf" collection mimics crushed foil, the Pink Diamond formula focuses on a multi-dimensional, diamond-like twinkle with a soft, cool-toned pink hue.
Core Characteristics
-
The Finish: A dazzling, high-shine baby pink glitter effect. It contains various sizes of light-reflecting particles that create a "crushed diamond" appearance on the nail.
-
Pure Gel Formula: This is a 100% pure gel product, meaning it is solvent-free and won't evaporate or thicken in the jar over time.
-
Super Saturated: Unlike standard glitter polishes that can be sheer, Pink Diamond is densely packed with pigment, allowing for full opacity in one to two thin layers.

Why Professionals Use It
-
No-Mess Glitter: Traditional loose glitters can be difficult to manage. This gel provides the same intense sparkle in a pre-mixed, easy-to-apply format that doesn't fly around the salon.
-
Precision Art: The thick, "non-moving" viscosity makes it perfect for glitter fades (ombré), bold French tips, or defined geometric shapes.
-
Smooth Surface: Despite the high glitter content, the particles are designed to lay relatively flat, requiring less top coat to achieve a smooth, snag-free finish.
Professional Application Tips
-
Placement: Use a firm art brush or a silicone tool to "press" the glitter into place for full coverage.
-
Ombré Effect: To create a fade, apply a small amount near the cuticle or tip and use a dry brush to gently pull the glitters toward the center of the nail.
-
Curing: Ensure a full 30-second LED cure. Because it is highly reflective, a quality lamp is essential for the light to penetrate the glitter layers.
-
Sealing: Seal with a strong top coat like Akzentz Shine-On. If the texture feels slightly bumpy after curing, you can apply a layer of clear base gel, buff smooth, and then apply your final top coat.
