APRÉS Gel-X Almond Short Nail Tips 280-Count — Natural Almond, 14 Sizes with Half-Sizes, Soft Gel Soak-Off

APRÉS Gel-X Almond Box delivers 280 soft gel nail tips in 14 sizes—including new half sizes—for fast, strong, salon-quality almond short extensions that soak off with acetone.

APRÉS redesigned the Gel-X® tip to make application quicker and fit more nail shapes. This box contains 280 Natural Almond Short tips across 14 sizes (00–9) with added half sizes 4.5, 5.5 and 6.5, a thinner base for a seamless bond, and a thicker free edge for durability. The soft gel material pairs with Extend Gel to achieve long-wearing extensions that are simple to remove when needed.

How do these Gel-X tips make sizing faster and more inclusive?

The added half sizes mean fewer compromises when matching tips to natural nail beds, reducing time spent trimming or filling. With 14 distinct widths and half-size increments, technicians can find a closer fit for each client in fewer attempts.

• Includes sizes 00–9 plus half sizes 4.5, 5.5, 6.5 for finer fits
• 280-piece assortment reduces the need for multiple boxes
• Natural shape accommodates broader nail beds without lifting

What changed in the Gel-X design and why does it matter?

The tip structure was refined: a thinner base promotes a seamless transition at the cuticle and requires less filing, while a thicker free edge resists chips and extends wear. Those tweaks save prep time and improve the finished look.

• Thinner base reduces bulk and minimizes filing
• Thicker distal edge adds strength for longer wear
• Soft gel construction conforms for a natural appearance

How long will these Gel-X extensions hold up, and how are they removed?

When applied with APRÉS Extend Gel and cured correctly, Gel-X tips can stay intact for multiple weeks, depending on wear and natural nail growth. Removal is straightforward: soak with acetone to lift and soften the soft-gel material without aggressive mechanical removal.

• Compatible with APRÉS Extend Gel for lasting adhesion
• Soft gel formula soaks off with standard acetone procedures
• Durable free edge resists everyday wear and minor impacts

Which line should I choose: Natural or Sculpted?

The Natural line offers a flatter surface and broader fit, ideal for clients with wide nail plates or those seeking a low-profile look. The Sculpted line delivers a higher apex and more pronounced C-curve for dramatic extensions and enhanced contouring.

• Natural: flatter surface, better for wider nail beds
• Sculpted: pronounced curve and higher apex for sculpted shapes
• Both lines available in the same size range for consistent sizing

Who is this product for? The APRÉS Gel-X Almond Box of Tips suits professional nail technicians who need a comprehensive, time-saving tip assortment and advanced-fit options, as well as experienced DIYers who want salon finishes at home. If you value quick sizing, a seamless base, and long-lasting soft-gel performance that removes cleanly with acetone, this set is designed to deliver consistent results across a wide range of clients and nail types.
