Quick answer

Mix Flor Azul gloss palette colors by blending small amounts on a clean surface, then apply custom shades using the included brush for a glossy finish.

Why mix gloss palette colors?

Mixing gloss palette colors gives you the freedom to create unique nail shades that match your mood or outfit. Instead of buying dozens of single-use bottles, you can combine a few key tones to expand your collection. The Flor Azul palette's royal blue and white base makes it especially versatile for creating everything from soft pastels to vibrant statement colors.

One trade-off is that mixing requires a bit of patience and practice. If you add too much of one color, you might end up with a shade that's darker or lighter than intended. Start with small drops and adjust gradually.

How to mix Flor Azul gloss palette colors for custom nail shades

  1. Prepare your work area: Lay out a clean, non-porous surface like a glass tile or plastic palette. Squeeze a small drop of Flor Azul gloss onto the surface. If you plan to mix multiple shades, leave space between each drop to avoid accidental blending. A messy surface can lead to unwanted color mixing. Keep drops separated until you're ready.
  2. Mix your custom shade: Using a clean brush or toothpick, combine a tiny amount of Flor Azul with a second gloss color (like a white or clear gloss) on the palette. Stir gently until the color is uniform. Start with a 1:1 ratio, then adjust by adding more of either shade to achieve the desired depth. Always mix small amounts first—you can always add more, but you can't remove excess color.
  3. Apply the custom shade: Using the applicator brush from the Flor Azul set, pick up a small amount of your mixed gloss. Apply a thin, even layer to your nail. Avoid overloading the brush, as thick layers take longer to dry and may smudge. Thin coats dry faster and reduce the risk of bubbles or uneven coverage.
  4. Seal with a top coat: Once your custom shade is dry to the touch, apply a clear top coat to lock in the color and add extra shine. This step also helps prevent chipping and extends the life of your manicure. Skipping the top coat can result in duller color and shorter wear time.
  5. Clean up and store properly: Wipe your palette and tools with nail polish remover or rubbing alcohol before the gloss dries. Close the Flor Azul container tightly and store it in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Residue from dried gloss can contaminate future mixes and shorten product shelf life.
