Gel Polish - Brooklyn, 10 ml

Brooklyn Gel Polish, 10 ml by ReformA is a brick shade with a warm brown-red undertone and full coverage in two coats. A brick tone for warm autumn nails.

The brown-red undertone takes the brick into earthy tones, so it looks calmer than a pure red. It comes in a 10 ml bottle with a brush. Apply Brooklyn over a cured base and seal it with a top coat.

How to apply

1. 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.
2. 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.
3. Apply Rubber Base or Base Coat in one thin layer and cure.
4. Apply Brooklyn in one or two thin coats, curing each coat.
5. Finish with a top coat and cure according to its instructions.
6. 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

How long can gel polish sit on the nail before curing?
Only briefly. Give Brooklyn a moment to self-level, then cure. Left too long, the colour starts to creep towards the cuticle and sidewalls and spoils a clean outline, so paint one hand and cure it straight away.

How is Brooklyn different from Milk Chocolate?
Milk Chocolate is a chocolate brown with a warm brown-grey undertone. Brooklyn is a brick shade with a brown-red one, so it sits much closer to red. Both cover fully in two coats.

Does a brick shade suit cool skin tones?
The warm, earthy undertone looks most natural on warm and neutral skin. On cool skin Brooklyn reads more contrasting; for a calmer result, a burgundy with a cool undertone is the easier choice.
