The natural nails are shaped with a 240\/240 thin wooden file, the shine is gently removed using a 100\/180 grit buffer, and the surface is cleansed with Nail Surface Cleanse on a lint‑free wipe. Finally, a thin coat of pH Bond nail prep is applied before sizing and priming the tips.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cb\u003eWhat’s the correct way to apply soft gel tips?\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cb\u003eA:\u003c\/b\u003e The process starts by applying tip primer to both the underside of all ten sized soft gel tips and the natural nails. A liberal amount of adhesive is placed on the tip’s contact area, then the tip is rolled onto the nail from the cuticle toward the free edge with constant pressure to avoid bubbles. After a 5‑second flash cure under a touch LED light, all five fingers are cured for 60 seconds in an 18G LED light before refining edges, buffing, cleansing, and finishing with lacquer or gel polish and top coat.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cb\u003eHow is Gelish soft gel removed safely?\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cb\u003eA:\u003c\/b\u003e Removal begins with sanitizing, taking off any lacquer, and reducing nail length. If soak‑off gel was used, the top seal is broken by lightly roughing the surface with a 100\/180 grit buffer or reducing bulk with a Go File. Cotton pads or foil wraps saturated with artificial nail remover are applied for 15 minutes, after which softened gel is gently pushed away; soaking can be repeated if needed. The process ends with light buffing and massaging cuticle oil into the surrounding skin.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Gelish","offers":[{"title":"9ml","offer_id":67073175847283,"sku":"1244009","price":14.5,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true},{"title":"15ml","offer_id":67073175880051,"sku":"1148009","price":19.95,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2392\/6125\/products\/1244009-Gelish-Soft-Get-Tip-Primer.jpg?v=1603249143","url":"https:\/\/barneyssalonsupplies.com.au\/products\/gelish-soft-gel-tip-primer","provider":"Barneys Salon Supplies","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
