The soft color gradients from pink or nude to white give nails an elegant, natural appearance.

✨ Why is the baby boomer look so popular?

✔ Perfect base for nail art – Baby Boomer can be worn solo or enhanced with glitter & designs.

🎨 The best techniques for the perfect baby boomer

1️⃣ Baby Boomers with Gel

This method is perfect for longer-lasting sculpting. The cover gel is gently blended with white gel. A popular option is applying it with a fine sponge or a special ombré brush.

➡ Tip: Use a slightly milky gel to achieve a particularly smooth transition.

2️⃣ Baby Boomers with Acrylic

Those who prefer an even more stable model can create the Baby Boomer with acrylic powder. The white powder is applied to the tip of the nail and gently blended with the cover pink.

➡ Tip: Work with slightly damp acrylic balls to make the color gradient seamless.

3️⃣ Baby Boomer with Soak Off Gel (gel polish)

This technique is ideal for those who prefer natural nails! The color gradient is achieved using two matching gel polishes and blended with a special blending brush.

➡ Tip: Make sure you choose a well-pigmented but not too opaque white color for a soft effect.
