APRÉS Gel-X Square Nail Tips — 280 Soft-Gel Tips, Natural Square Medium, 14 Sizes with Half-Sizes, Thinner Base

APRÉS Gel-X Square Box delivers 280 soft-gel nail tips in 14 sizes (00–9) with new half-sizes for faster, more precise fits and a thinner base for minimal filing.

These Gel-X Square tips are a redesigned soft-gel extension system created to speed up application while improving fit and durability. Each kit includes 280 tips across 14 sizes plus the new half-sizes (4.5, 5.5, 6.5), offering more accurate coverage for varied nail shapes. The updated construction pairs a thinner base—so glue and gel blend smoothly—with a reinforced free edge to resist chipping and lifting. Choose the Natural finish for a flatter platform ideal for wider nails or the Sculpted profile if you prefer a higher apex and pronounced curve.

How do these Gel-X tips simplify salon and at-home application?

The thinner base of the redesigned tips reduces the amount of filing and shaping needed before application, saving time and preserving natural nail length. Soft-gel material adapts easily under gel or adhesive, making placement precise and secure for both technicians and DIY users.

• 280 tips per box reduce reordering during busy services
• 14 size range (00–9) plus half-sizes for better fit
• Thinner base means minimal filing and faster prep
• Soft-gel conforms to nail bed for accurate adhesion

Will these tips hold up for weekly wear and styling?

The Gel-X design balances flexibility and strength: a sturdy free edge resists everyday wear while the soft-gel body stays comfortable on the nail. When used with APRÉS Extend Gel or compatible gel systems, users typically see long-lasting results while maintaining ease of maintenance.

• Thicker free edge for improved impact resistance
• Compatible with soak-off acetone removal methods
• Works with builder gels and gel polishes for layered styling
• Engineered for 4+ week wear when applied correctly

Which size profile is right: Natural or Sculpted?

Natural tips offer a flatter platform that sits smoothly on wider nail beds and gives a subtle, natural silhouette. Sculpted tips provide a higher apex and deeper C-curve for a more dramatic, salon-style arch suitable for tapered or narrow nails.

• Natural: flatter surface, ideal for broad nail shapes
• Sculpted: pronounced curve and higher apex for lifted look
• Both lines include the new half-sizes for finer fit tuning
• Choose based on desired final shape and nail architecture

How do you remove and maintain Gel-X extensions safely?

These soft-gel tips are designed for easy soak-off using acetone, which reduces mechanical removal and protects the natural nail when done properly. Regular maintenance—fills, light buffing and avoiding harsh impacts—helps extend wear and preserve tip integrity.

• Easily soak off with acetone for low-damage removal
• Perform fills instead of full removals to prolong sets
• Avoid heavy prying or picking to reduce lifting
• Seal edges with topcoat to protect free edge longevity
