Dip powders are the healthy alternative to acrylics, providing a surface that is lighter, stronger, more flexible and longer-lasting than any other

solution. The nail is first coated with a light adhesive, and then dipped in pigmented powder. After the powder is applied, a top coat seals the

surface. SNS dip powders protect and nourish the natural nail with the Nutri-Plus™ system, which adds a range of vitamins and minerals to both the base coat and the powders. In addition, the SNS dip powder system avoids 13 toxic chemicals common in nail products, along with many other allergenic or harmful ingredients.

Only SNS has Nutri-Plus™, a powerful combination of healthful ingredients added to the base coat and powders. In addition, SNS powders are finer milled, making for easier application and a more vivid and consistent finish. The SNS “color genius” laboratory has the most advanced system for color design, with the finest colors available. Over 400 SNS dip powder colors are offered, with matching colors for pedicures in the SNS GelStar™ and Nail Lacquer lines. SNS introduced dip powders to the nail industry over 20 years ago with the first pink and white dip powder system, and is recognized as the leading provider of this advanced product solution. In the prestigious NailPro Magazine awards, SNS has won the “Best Dip Powder System” category three years running.

Consumers consistently report that their natural nails remain healthy and strong after use of SNS products. The SNS Nutri-Plus™ dip powder system nourishes and protects the natural nail with botanical oils, emollient-rich safflower, silk protein, four important vitamins (A, E, D3, B5) and beauty products. SNS powders are also non-allergenic and free of eleven other common additives, such as paraben, lanolin, and propylene glycol.

The SNS application process is almost odorless, and no UV light is needed.

The SNS Pink and White Dip Powder System creates what is sometimes known as the “French tip”. The body of the nail is dipped in pink powder, and the tip is dipped in white powder. SNS introduced the first pink and white dip powders more than 30 years ago, and continues to produce the highest quality system available for creating this classically elegant look.

SNS Dip Powder is easy to remove:

1. Trim nails to desired length.
2. Carefully buff off shine, making sure not to touch the natural nail with the file.
3. Optional: cover cuticles with Signature Serum.
4. Wrap each finger in acetone-soaked cotton wool, covered with foil. We recommend double foil wrapping to trap in more heat. This will activate the toner and prevent the acetone from leaking out of the foil.
5. Allow to soak off for 10 minutes, rewrap and check every 5 minutes. Use the cotton wool and rub the nails in a circular motion.T he old nail product should be soft and sticky but should remove easily when rubbed off with light pressure. Do not force, pick, or pry off the old product. Doing so can cause damage to the nail.
6. Optional: Massage Signature Serum gently into nails and cuticles.

There are a few steps you can take, again but please do NOT try to force the bottles open. Our bottles are made out of glass and can cause serious injuries if they're forced open. To ensure your Gel Base, Gel Top and Brush On Glue do not get glues shut, follow these steps:

Before storing SNS Bases, Top coats and Brush-On Glue, make sure you clean the neck of your bottles and inside the caps well with acetone. This will help you prevent product buildup around the neck which could dry making your product nearly impossible to open.

SAFETY RECOMMENDATION: Always use gloves, goggles and a mask when handling SNS products: If your bottle is glued shut and you are unable to open it, we recommend soaking it in hot water for 10-15 minutes then open with a towel covering the bottle and cap. If you are still unable to open your bottles, please do NOT try to force them open.

SNS does our best to make sure our images depict the actual color accurately. The finished color on a nail is best shown by the nail image, not by the powder color in the jar. We cannot guarantee or promise that the color is the same due to screen variability among computer monitors, laptops and phone screens.

SNS provides an exciting array of over 100 of our top-selling Dip Powder Colors including French Manicure color formulas.

If applied correctly, an SNS dip powder nail color application can last approximately 2 weeks and if you are careful with you nails up to 3 weeks without chipping, discoloring or lifting.

SNS does not recommend dip powder nail refills. The previous application should always be removed prior to a “fresh” SNS dip powder application.

Whatever product you are using, fungus is not usually caused by the product itself. Fungus typically results from poor application technique. It can occur when water gets between the color surface and the real nail.
