CND Shellac Beau #103 / 0.42 oz.
CND Shellac Beau #103 / 0.42 oz. CND Shellac Beau brings sheer peach-pink with opalescence to professional manicure and pedicure services. Beau pairs a gentle peach-pink tint with a subtle opalescent effect. It gives a minimal manicure a little visual interest while keeping the overall look light.
At a Glance
Transparency is part of the look, making the natural nail an element of the finished manicure. Use a cured sample to discuss the balance of tint, coverage, and visible nail before beginning the service.
Quick Take
Choose this color when its shade and finish fit the service you are planning. Pair it with the appropriate Shellac base coat, top coat, and CND lamp to complete the system.
- Color direction: sheer peach-pink with opalescence.
- Professional format: 0.42 fl. oz. / 12.5 mL bottle.
- Controlled application: a curved brush follows the nail contour.
- Service flexibility: use for a full-color look or selected design accents.
- Extended wear option: up to 21 days with Epic Smoothing Base and Original Top Coat, when applied and removed as directed.
Why Pros Choose It
Sheer color gives professionals a useful option for clients who favor a delicate manicure. The consultation should establish whether the client wants a natural-looking veil or a more defined color result. Showing a transparent shade alongside a more opaque choice makes that distinction easier to explain without promising coverage the shade was not designed to provide.
Key Benefits
A useful color choice should fit both the client consultation and the way your team works. Build the service around the requested look while keeping the application method consistent.
- Polish-style brushing gives the technician a familiar way to place gel color.
- Lamp curing sets each color layer as the service progresses.
- The completed Shellac system provides a chip-resistant, glossy color finish.
- A choice of Shellac base coats lets the professional tailor the foundation to the nail.
- Color and finish can provide the design interest in a simple full-set manicure.
- The directed soak-off method removes the coating without filing or buffing the natural nail.
Features That Matter
Shellac Color Coat is the color stage of a complete professional system. These application details help keep the service controlled from the first layer to the final finish.
- Brush-on color is applied over a cured Shellac base coat.
- Two thin color layers allow a controlled application without loading the nail with excess product.
- Each color layer is cured separately using the specified CND lamp setting.
- A compatible Shellac top coat completes and protects the color service.
- No filing or buffing of the natural nail surface is required for standard Shellac preparation.
How to Use
Follow the current CND Shellac protocol for the selected base coat and top coat. Keep layers thin and use the lamp setting specified for each product.
- Perform CND P.E.P. to prepare the natural nail, including shaping, cuticle care, and nail-surface cleansing.
- Apply the selected Shellac base coat and cure as directed. Epic Smoothing Base uses preset 2S; Original Base Coat uses preset 1.
- Shake the color bottle to blend. Brush on a thin, even first layer, including the extension edge, and cure using preset 2S.
- Apply a second thin color layer and cure again using preset 2S.
- Apply the selected Shellac top coat and cure according to its instructions. Remove the top film where required; No-Wipe+ does not require this step.
- Finish the service with appropriate nail care. At removal, follow the CND wrap protocol and the time for the selected system rather than peeling the coating.
