Gel Polish - Spotlight, 10 ml
SKU: 941123
Spotlight Gel Polish, 10 ml by ReformA is a black with a cool greenish undertone, dense glitter and full coverage in two coats. A sparkling black for evening manicures.
The greenish undertone takes the grey cast out of the black and gives a deeper base, so the dense glitter reads as a scatter of sparkle on a dark background. It comes in a 10 ml bottle with a brush. Apply Spotlight over a cured base and seal it with a top coat.

How to apply
- Prep the cuticle area with Cuticle Remover: apply a small amount to the cuticle, gently push it back with an orange stick or a pusher and lift off the pterygium.
- Prep the nail plate: degrease it with a cleanser such as Cleanser, then dehydrate it with Nail Prep. Duo Prep covers both steps in one product. Then apply Ultrabond Primer for better adhesion to the nail plate. The primer needs no curing, it air-dries.
- Apply Rubber Base or Base Coat in one thin layer and cure.
- Apply Spotlight in one or two thin coats, curing each coat.
- Finish with a top coat and cure according to its instructions.
- Wait at least 60 seconds after curing the top coat before applying cuticle oil, so the top coat keeps its shine.
Gel polish curing time: 60-120 sec in an LED lamp, 30-60 sec in a 48 W dual LED lamp. Curing time depends on the power of the lamp and its LEDs, so check it separately for each product.
Frequently asked questions
Why does glitter gel lift at the edges before the rest of the nail?
Usually because the glitter coat ends up thickest at the edges, leaving a ridge that catches. Keep each coat of Spotlight thin, taper it towards the sidewalls and cap the free edge with every layer, so the edge stays sealed.
How is Spotlight different from Burlesque?
Both carry dense glitter and cover fully in two coats, so the texture is the same. The base colour is what differs: Spotlight is a black with a cool greenish undertone, Burlesque a fuchsia with a cool purple one.
Does a glitter black work on short nails?
Yes. A dark base with sparkle looks neat and compact on short nails and does not overpower the hand. Keep the coats thin: dense glitter in a thick layer leaves texture that takes a lot of top coat to level.
Colours on screen can look different from the real shade: monitor calibration and display settings both affect it. If you are unsure about a shade, get in touch and we will show you the actual colour.
