Tortuga
Description
Depth meets dimension.
Tortuga is a warm-toned semi-sheer brown glass gel polish with a subtle amber undertone — think sunlit tortoiseshell on golden sands.
Designed to layer for custom nail art, this warm shade is a great base for tortoiseshell nails. Its sheer, buildable formula creates a stained-glass glow that catches eyes and adds richness and warmth to your wildest nail art.
Ready to unleash your wild side with animal print nails? Shop The Reptile Kit to save over £20 and stock up on all three new glass gel polish shades, plus Blooming Gel. Stock your kit with the ultimate pro gel selection for jelly nails, tortoiseshell nails and marble nail designs.
