What colour Gelish?

[magentahair]

Hi, nipped over from hair! I cant seem to find the right gelish colour, what i want is a metallic very dark (almost black) grey/charcoal!!!! The lady who does my nails only stocks a jet black and a silvery/grey, she also says gelish dont do the colour i want???? ive looked on their site but cant find anything! I may try somewhere else for my nails as where i go now doesnt have a chart for me to look at, so i have to go with their limited range! Is there such a colour?????? Thanks :hug:

Hiya, you should check out the Gelish lovers group on here, there's loads of photos on there and you might find what you're looking for. I can't really help as I'm only doing my Gelish training tomorrow lol x

I think midnight caller is the darkest grey

Try one layer of black shadow then one coat midnight caller. Should give more depth to the grey. Hth

Jet Set is also a very dark grey.

Midnight caller is the darkest grey and as has been suggested you could get 2 coats black with midnight caller on top or get your nail tech to custom mix black with a little midnight caller through it until you get the shade you want. Alternatively you could go to a nail tech who has shellac as they have a georgeous dark grey called asphalt. hth x

If you don't mind me asking, how did you get the names of the colours printed out on your colour pops JuicyLucy?

2 coats of Deep Sea with Taffeta over the top makes stunning dark grey/black pearl colour. I've got it on now, looks fab x

Its an example of my extreme OCD!!

I buy clear sticky labels (but you could do it with acetate) and print on them in very small type font. I then cut out the name and stick it onto the colorpop and then cover it in a small amount of selotape (they come loose otherwise). It does take time but I think they look very professional. I have over 100 colours done like that
