Akzentz Options: Aurora Emerald Akzentz Options Aurora Emerald is a breathtaking, jewel-toned glitter gel that captures the mystical depth of a northern forest. As a centerpiece of the Aurora Collection, this gel combines a rich, forest-green base with multi-dimensional holographic pigments that mimic the shifting lights of the Aurora Borealis. It is engineered for nail professionals who want to deliver a high-impact, "regal" aesthetic with the legendary strength and soak-off flexibility of the Options 100% pure gel formula. Core Characteristics The Finish: A deep, saturated emerald green infused with "Aurora" holographic particles. The finish is uniquely transformative; in low light, it appears as a classic, sophisticated jewel tone, but under direct light, it erupts into a vivid spectrum of teal, gold, and lime-green reflections. The Options Architecture: This is a 100% pure, solvent-free gel. It provides a durable, flexible coating that protects the natural nail for 3+ weeks without chipping or peeling. Because it is a pure gel, it remains odor-free and maintains a perfect consistency from the first use to the last. Superior Particle Suspension: Aurora Emerald features a mix of fine and medium glitter flakes that remain perfectly suspended in the gel. This ensures that every brushstroke delivers a dense, even distribution of color and sparkle without needing to "fish" for pigments.

Its depth and clarity make it perfect for creating realistic emerald or malachite-inspired art when layered or swirled. The "Aurora" Effect: Unlike flat green glitters, the holographic shift in this gel adds a "living" quality to the manicure. It moves and changes color with the client’s hands, providing an interactive, high-end experience. Reinforced Art: Since it is part of the Options line, it adds a layer of structural reinforcement to the nail. It is ideal for clients with natural nails who want "bling" without sacrificing the strength of their manicure. Professional Application Tips The "Velvet Depth" Technique: Apply one coat of Aurora Emerald over a dark base like Royal Onyx or Line-It Black. This deepens the green base and makes the holographic particles "glow" with much higher intensity. Precision Ombré: For a "forest-canopy" fade, apply the gel at the free edge and use a dry gel brush to lightly drag the particles toward the cuticle. The stable Options base allows for a seamless, professional gradient. Encapsulated Brilliance: For the ultimate "3D" effect, apply a layer of Aurora Emerald, cure, and then overlay with a thin layer of Options Crystal Clear. This adds a "lens" over the glitter, magnifying the holographic shift and ensuring a perfectly smooth surface. The High-Gloss Finish: To truly unlock the "Aurora" fire, seal with Akzentz Shine-On. The high-gloss finish acts as a catalyst for the holographic pigments, maximizing their light-refraction capabilities.
