Sorbet Peach Colour Block nails
Sorbet Peach on one part of the nail, Milk Bath on the other, split by a taped line.
3 bottles: Sorbet Peach, Milk Bath and Deep Apricot. Sorbet Peach and Milk Bath are close in tone, so the design is tonal rather than graphic. It shows up in daylight and softens indoors. The bottles are not all the same finish (sheer and crème), so the pattern picks up light differently from the ground.
On a coffin shape there is more flat nail than almost anywhere else on the site, so a dense or textured finish has room to be seen.

Questions about Sorbet Peach Colour Block
Is Sorbet Peach Colour Block hard to do at home?
Yes. There is no freehand work that has to be accurate. Budget about 30 minutes for a full set, and three colours means three chances for something to bleed, so cure between each one rather than working wet on wet.
What polish do I need for Sorbet Peach Colour Block?
3 bottles: Sorbet Peach (sheer), Milk Bath (sheer) and Deep Apricot (crème). Plus a base coat and a gloss top coat, which every design here assumes you already have.
Does Sorbet Peach Colour Block work on short nails?
Coffin is the one shape here that genuinely needs length. On a short nail there is not enough free edge to cut square, and it will read as a squoval instead.
How many coats does Sorbet Peach Colour Block need?
More than you would expect. Sorbet Peach and Milk Bath are translucent, so the colour builds over three thin coats rather than covering in two. Stop wherever you like the depth — that is the point of a sheer.
