APRÉS Gel-X Almond Nail Tips — Natural Almond Medium, 280 Soft‑Gel Tips, 14 Sizes & Half-Sizes

These Almond-shaped Gel-X tips from APRÉS update the soft-gel extension system with thoughtful engineering: thinner bases that blend more easily, thicker free edges for added strength, and three new half sizes (4.5, 5.5, 6.5) to reduce guesswork. The box includes 280 tips across 14 sizes (00–9) in a Natural Almond Medium profile, giving technicians and at-home users a broad selection for accurate fitting and professional results.

How does the new Gel-X design improve application?

The revised construction focuses on a lower base height and a sturdier free edge. That combination makes seating and blending quicker while maintaining durability where stress is most likely to occur.

• Thinner base reduces required filing and creates a smoother transition.
• Thicker free edge resists chips and holds shape under daily wear.
• Soft-gel material ensures flexible adhesion with Extend Gel systems.

Will I find the right size for unusual nail shapes?

Yes — the expanded size range and added half-sizes make matching natural nails faster and more precise. You can pick sizes that closely mirror the client’s natural nail without forcing a larger or smaller fit.

• 14 sizes from 00 to 9 cover narrow to wide nail beds.
• Half-sizes (4.5, 5.5, 6.5) bridge common gaps for better fit.
• Two profile options (Natural vs. Sculpted) adapt to flatter or more curved natural nails.

How long do these Gel-X tips last and what maintenance is needed?

When applied with APRÉS Extend Gel and installed correctly, Gel-X tips can hold for four weeks or more depending on natural nail growth and wear habits. Routine maintenance includes gentle filing at the cuticle seam if necessary and regular top-coat reapplications for shine and protection.

• Compatible with Extend Gel systems for multi-week retention.
• Minimal prep thanks to the thin base—less natural nail removal during application.
• Recoat or top coat boosts shine and extends visual life.

What’s the safest way to remove APRÉS Gel-X tips?

These tips are made from soakable soft gel designed to come off with acetone, allowing safe, non-destructive removal when performed correctly. Follow gradual soaking and gentle removal practices to preserve natural nail integrity.

• Soak with acetone-based remover until the tip softens.
• Gently lift and slide the softened tip away—do not force.
• Finish with a nourishing oil or conditioner for the natural nail and cuticle.
