Tina Bell, head of education at Pure Nails, divulges info about the Halo Create nail art range and how you can make the most of the products to dazzle and delight clients…
Halo Create launched just in time for lockdown 2.0; an ideal time for us to experiment with nail designs that our clients will be eager to try when nail services resume.
I have been testing all of the Coloured Acrylics, Glitters and Chromes for over a year now so it’s amazing to see it finally come together in their perfect, diamond-shaped pots. The feedback so far has been more than brilliant, and we are thrilled that you love the products as much as we do. We have loved seeing your designs!
If you haven’t tried the range yet, let me tell you a little bit about the products:
Halo Glitter – The Halo Glitters are all holographic and have a tremendous sparkle to them. We chose colours that would be perfect for each season but especially the festive season, as were launching it time for Christmas. You can sugar, encapsulate, burnish and add to one of our systems to create your own bespoke colours and creations.
Halo Chrome – The Halo Chromes are bright, vibrant and super shiny! Using them on top of a Non Wipe Top Coat creates a full on chrome effect, seal this in by finishing with a base coat and then top coat again; this prevents it chipping so easily. You can also add this to one of our systems, I love mixing it with base coat to create a chrome paint, perfect for adding a little detail to nail art.
Halo Coloured Acrylic – We have 24 amazing colours for you, 6 of which are glitter. They are all super pigmented and I’ve found that it’s best to use them wet and thin. Apply them in a sandwich technique for the best finish and to ensure you create enough strength in the nail itself. It’s no good having an amazing design if the nail will snap as soon as the client bangs it. I like to use these with Halo Liquid Pro for a faster setting time.
Halo Crystals – We have brought you the absolute best quality crystals in 12 colours and 2 sizes. We decided to create 2 different sizes so that your designs can flow better. Using with Polibuild or Easibuild will ensure these little gems do not move for the time your client is wearing them. They are super sparkly, perfect for this time of year.
Micro Crystals– Micros can be used to cover a whole nail or can be added to a crystal design to help fill out tiny, little gaps. I also love to use them in 3D work and encapsulation as they are so tiny, so perfect for this and it gives each nail design a glistening edge.
