Soft Gel Tips
Soft gel tips are pre-shaped, full-cover gel nail tips that replace sculpting and heavy filing with a single bonded application. C8 Nail Supply stocks the shapes salons actually reorder: Sofgel Softips Pro XV and Pro XII in sculpted and natural profiles across coffin, almond, stiletto, square, squoval, round and lipstick, in short through extra-long lengths and 360 to 780 piece boxes, plus variety collection tip boxes, NotPolish Press X Tips in 630 piece boxes, and Apres and Cre8tion soft gel systems. Because the tip is gel rather than plastic, it flexes with the natural nail and blends at the seam instead of leaving a ridge. Apply with an extend gel from our Apres soft gel tips range, use nail glue and tips for traditional plastic extensions, and cure under a UV or LED nail lamp.
Frequently Asked Questions — Soft Gel Tips
What are soft gel nail tips?
Soft gel tips are full-cover nail tips moulded from cured soft gel instead of hard plastic. They bond to the natural nail with an extend gel adhesive and cure under a lamp, producing an extension that is lighter and more flexible than an acrylic tip and needs far less blending at the seam.
How do you apply gel tips?
Size and fit each tip first, prep and dehydrate the natural nail, apply a thin layer of extend gel to both the nail and the inside of the tip, press and hold at the correct angle, then flash cure and complete a full cure under a UV or LED lamp. Shape and finish with a top coat.
What is the difference between soft gel tips and press-on nails?
Press-on nails attach with adhesive tabs or glue and are designed to be temporary and removable. Soft gel tips are bonded with a cured gel adhesive to become a semi-permanent extension, typically worn two to three weeks and removed by soaking or filing.
Does C8 Nail Supply sell soft gel tips in bulk?
Yes. C8 Nail Supply stocks soft gel tips in full boxes and variety collections at retail and wholesale pricing for licensed nail technicians and salons, shipping nationwide from Garden Grove, California.
