Frequently Asked Questions
What is Lavis Soft Gel Tip Adhesive?+
Lavis Soft Gel Tip Adhesive is a professional gel-based glue formulated specifically for attaching soft gel nail tips (Apres-style press-on extensions) to the natural nail. The 0.5 oz pro size is enough for approximately 40-60 full sets depending on application technique. Lavis is a California-based nail brand known for clean-formula gel innovations including HEMA-free cat eye and HEMA-free builder gel.
How do I apply Lavis Tip Adhesive?+
Prep the natural nail: push back cuticle, light buff, dehydrate with a nail prep solution. Apply a thin coat of Lavis Tip Adhesive to the natural nail (or to the back of the soft gel tip), press the tip in place at a 45-degree angle, hold 5-10 seconds, then cure under LED for 30-60 seconds. Cap the seam with a thin layer of base gel and cure again for a seamless transition. Always use a quality LED lamp for full cure.
How long does the soft gel tip extension last?+
With Lavis Tip Adhesive plus proper prep, soft gel tip sets typically wear 2-3 weeks before fill-in is needed. Wear depends on prep, nail length and shape, and client hand activity. The adhesive is strong-hold formula — common causes of lifting are oily nail beds (always dehydrate fully), under-cured adhesive (cure fully under LED), or trapped air bubbles (press firmly). Recommend daily cuticle oil for retention.
How is Lavis Tip Adhesive different from Apres or Kiara Sky tip glue?+
Apres GelX is the original soft gel tip system and its branded adhesive is widely used. Lavis Tip Adhesive is a compatible alternative — same gel chemistry, formulated to work with Apres-style soft gel tips at a more accessible price point. Many salons use Lavis adhesive with Apres-brand or off-brand soft gel tips. Kiara Sky has its own soft gel tip line with matching adhesive. Performance is comparable across the three; choice usually comes down to brand preference and price.
What size is the bottle and how many sets does it cover?+
Bottle is 0.5 oz (15 mL), Lavis's standard pro gel size. One bottle typically covers 40-60 full sets of soft gel tip extensions depending on tip size and how much adhesive you use per nail. Salons doing heavy soft gel tip volume often stock multiple bottles. Store cap-tight away from direct light to prevent thickening.
