V Beauty Pure Acrylic Powder 0.5oz – 223 STRAWBERRY SHORTCAKE

V Beauty Pure Acrylic Powder – 223 STRAWBERRY SHORTCAKE — Warm strawberry pink with sweet bakery undertone — STRAWBERRY SHORTCAKE reads playful and irresistibly girly. Self-leveling acrylic powder in a salon-grade pink / rose, formulated with V Beauty Pure EMA-compatible polymer for smooth beads and color-true wear.

What It Does

V Beauty Pure's 0.5oz Acrylic Powder is a finely milled polymer powder that combines with EMA acrylic monomer to create a strong, sculptable bead for overlays, full sets, and sculpted extensions. Its ultra-fine, self-leveling texture means smooth application, minimal filing, and durable retention. Non-yellowing and MMA-free for salon-compliant work.

Why Pros Choose This

• Ultra-fine, self-leveling: blends seamlessly with monomer for bubble-free beads
• Color-true under top coat: STRAWBERRY SHORTCAKE stays warm strawberry pink, self-leveling after sealing
• Excellent adhesion: designed to prevent lifting on properly prepped nails
• MMA-free EMA-compatible: salon-compliant polymer chemistry

How to Use

1. Prep the nail: cleanse, dehydrate with V Beauty Pure Nail Prep Dehydrator, prime with Super Bond
2. Dip acrylic brush into V Beauty Pure EMA Monomer, then into the powder to form a bead (~1.5:1 ratio)
3. Place bead on nail and sculpt within 30–60 seconds
4. Allow to air-set, then file, buff, and finish with a gel top coat to lock in shine

Frequently Asked Questions

Does STRAWBERRY SHORTCAKE need a base color or can I use it as a full bead?

Both work. Use as a full saturated bead for high color payoff, or layer it thin over Crystal Clear for a softer, sheerer effect.

What monomer should I use with V Beauty Pure Acrylic Powder?

Pair with V Beauty Pure EMA Monomer (Liquid 8oz or 32oz) for best bead control and clarity. Any professional EMA-based acrylic monomer will also work — do NOT use MMA monomer.

Will the color stay true after top coat?

Yes — the polymer is non-yellowing when finished with a gel top coat and cured properly. Avoid prolonged sun exposure on non-sealed beads.

How long does one 0.5oz jar last?

A 0.5oz jar completes 3–6 full sets — perfect for trial sizes or accent shades.

Is STRAWBERRY SHORTCAKE suitable for sculpted extensions?

Yes. The fine grind and self-leveling texture make it suitable for sculpting on tips, forms, and natural nail overlays.
