TOUCH - Aurora Powder 05, 5ml

Same pearlescent, aurora-inspired shimmer as the rest of the line — an ultra-fine rub-on powder that shifts character depending on what's underneath it: soft, iridescent pearl over light colors, and sharper, more dramatic highlights over dark ones. Part of the full Aurora Powder collection.

Formula: ultra-fine grind, rubs in easily, forms a smooth, dense layer with no gaps or patchiness. Holds its shine for the full life of the manicure without dulling.

Two ways to apply it:

Building from scratch: standard nail prep, degrease, primer (dry 30 sec), thin clear elastic base, cure. Level with Rubber Base or reinforce, file the free edge, complete a design or leave a camouflage base underneath. Seal with a no-wipe top coat, cure 30 seconds, then apply the powder with fingers or an applicator.

Straight onto a camouflage coating: shape the free edge with a soft file or buffer, apply ultrabond, secure with Airy Base over the free edge or half the nail plate and cure, then finish with a lightly leveled top coat cured 120 seconds — skipping the full build-up process entirely.

Applying over a reinforced nail plate is recommended to prevent chipping at the free edge. Comes with a sponge applicator. Volume: 5ml.

Which application method should I use for Aurora Powder 05? The build-from-scratch method suits new extensions or full reinforcement work; the direct-onto-camouflage method is faster when you're finishing an existing camouflage base rather than building the nail from the ground up.
