APRÉS Gel-X Square Nail Tips — 280 Soft Gel Extensions, Natural Square Extra Short, 14 Sizes with Half-Sizes (00–9)

APRÉS Gel-X Square Box of Nail Tips contains 280 soft-gel extensions in 14 sizes (including new half sizes) designed for fast-fitting, durable, soak-off salon results.

These Gel-X tips are the updated soft-gel extension system from APRÉS, reworked to make sizing and application quicker while improving strength where it matters. The set includes 280 pieces across 14 sizes (00–9) with the new half sizes 4.5, 5.5 and 6.5, plus a Natural Square Extra Short shape ideal for clients who want a more subtle, flat surface. A thinner base reduces the need for heavy filing and a thicker free edge increases impact resistance, so you spend less time prepping and more time finishing.

How will the new half sizes change my fit workflow?

The added half sizes make matching tips to natural nails faster and more precise, cutting down the need to “cheat” sizes or over-filing. Better fit reduces lifting and creates a cleaner contact line, which saves time during prep and reduces touch-ups.

• Includes half sizes 4.5, 5.5, 6.5 for finer gradation between sizes.
• 280-piece assortment ensures multiple clients or repeat services from one box.
• Faster size selection reduces salon chair time and product waste.

What differences does the redesigned Gel-X structure offer?

The tips now have a thinner base area for a smoother blend with less aggressive filing, while the free edge is thicker for improved longevity and resistance to chipping. This combination balances a natural apex with structural integrity for longer wear.

• Thinner base minimizes filing and preserves natural nail length.
• Thicker free edge strengthens the extension where stress is highest.
• Designed for compatibility with APRÉS Extend Gel and standard soak-off acetone removal.

Which shape and profile should I choose: Natural or Sculpted?

This box contains the Natural Square Extra Short profile, which offers a flatter surface and lower apex—ideal for wider nail beds and clients seeking a conservative silhouette. If you prefer a more dramatic curve and higher apex, APRÉS also offers Sculpted profiles in other Gel-X collections.

• Natural: flatter, low-apex finish for wider or shorter nails.
• Sculpted: higher C-curve and apex for pronounced length and contour (sold separately).
• Extra short square suits clients who want practical, wearable extensions.

How do I remove and maintain Gel-X tips?

Gel-X tips are made from soft gel designed for acetone soak-off, so removal is straightforward when performed properly. Routine maintenance is similar to other soft-gel systems: gentle filing for lift management and reapplication with recommended APRÉS adhesives and gels for best results.

• Easily soaked off with acetone; follow safe removal protocols.
• Use APRÉS Extend Gel for optimal bond and 4+ week wear performance.
• Light filing around the contact point only when necessary to preserve fit.

Who is this for? APRÉS Gel-X Square Box of Nail Tips is aimed at professional nail technicians and confident at-home users who want fast-fitting, long-wearing soft-gel extensions with reduced prep time. The 280-count format suits busy salons, educators, or anyone who services multiple clients, while the Natural Square Extra Short shape caters to clients seeking a neat, practical look without sacrificing strength. If you value precise sizing, minimal filing, and a soft-gel option that soaks off cleanly, this Gel-X assortment is a practical choice.
