Colour Accuracy

Colours may appear differently on your screen than in person. While we strive to present colours as accurately as possible, exact replication on different digital displays is not possible. Variations occur due to differences in screen settings, lighting conditions, backgrounds, and skin tones.

Compatibility

We cannot guarantee polishes or lamps from other brands will work with our products, as they have been designed to work at a complementary wavelength.

    Love Love Love

    It’s a complex colour so very hard to capture correctly but it is absolutely gorgeous! I was initially not sure if it was what I wanted as it appeared more of a purple tone than I expected but on it looks like a bluey grey and it is really beautiful. Might be my new favourite colour even. In the photo I have paired it with Starlet, and they look great together.
