Launching on November 23, The GelBottle Infinity Collectionarrives in time to bring some intergalactic gladness and cosmic color to holiday nail services.
Inspired by the wonders of space, and her love of glitters and shimmer, Daisy Kalnina, The GelBottle founder, says, “Being creative, choosing colors and coming up with crazy concepts is what I love most about my work! I’d been finding these incredible glitters to add to the collection, and later that night I just thought, OMG, how amazing would these colors look being photographed in space as they are all pretty cosmic!”
Featuring eight new shades plus a The GelBottle first: two non-wipe glitter topcoats to give any color a starry shine. And to prepare for lift off, each of the shades was beautifully photographed floating into the sky to bring out all the dimension, shine, and winking bits of shimmer and glitter. These colors will be a bright spot in any nail lover’s life.
Ranging from the gun-metal grey of Galactic to the fully opaque coverage of Full Moon and the deep, dark purple of Infinity, the collection is as magnetic as the sun itself. Each full collection comes with a free reusable holographic bag and 100% reusable and recyclable packaging, as well as biodegradable eco chips.
