040 vs 087 Nail Wraps: Which Shade Fits You?

Quick answer

Choose 040 for a romantic, glitzy pink ombré or 087 for a fresh, clean mint-to-white fade. Both are semi-cured UV gel wraps that require a UV lamp and a topcoat for best results.

Trade-offs to consider

• Shimmer level: 040 includes ultra fine glitter; 087 has none. Choose 040 if you want a subtle sparkle, or 087 if you prefer a completely matte finish.
• Color range: 040 goes from light to dark pink; 087 goes from mint green to white. 040 is warmer and romantic; 087 is cooler and refreshing. Think about your wardrobe and skin tone: pinks complement neutral and warm tones, while mint green suits cool and neutral tones.
• Application requirements: Both require a UV light to cure and a UV gel topcoat for durability. If you don't own a UV lamp, factor that into your purchase. Make sure you have a UV lamp and topcoat ready before applying either wrap.
