Sweet squared is out of stock of opaque pink powders but I need some for this Saturday to sculpt pink and whites (so you don't see the nail underneath when it grows out)
Is there anything I can add to the sheer pink to get the same effect??

Following! I've tried adding pigments to clear, but never get it the same opaque shade :( xx
 
I watched a YouTube video where a girl mixed some white acrylic into the pink acrylic to make it opaque. Have u tried that? Idk if it will work but worth a try.
 
You can add white powder to make it opaque then mix in additives to get the colour you want.
When adding additives do it little by little- a little goes long way and you can always add more but you cant take away!
Also, used no more then 30% additive to powder.
 
Thanks guys :)
Do you know what colour additives?I don't have the cnd ones :( I've only just converted to them) x

I like to mix in a dash of antique bronze or blush bronze and a small dash of haute pink for a nice warm mix xx
 
I called sweet squared and they told me they've discontinued the opaque pinks...so its all about custom blending now I believe. This is a bit of a mine field for me right now! Lol. I'm searching on CND.com for some help, the lady on the phone suggested getting one of the other pink acrylic powders (pure pink I think) and then mixing with pigments, as already suggested on here...eek
