APRES Gel Couleur J23 - Superstitious (HEMA-Free)

Enigmatic Gel Couleur turns the classic red into something juicier—a translucent stain of red that builds from sheer and glassy to deep and jewel-toned with every coat. Five shades move from vivid true red to dark wine, each shade allowing light to pass through the color for a juicy, glassy finish. Wear it alone, layer it over cat eye, foil, or pair it with an Enigmatic flash glitter shade to create a custom red with even more depth. Finish with Builder Top Gelcoat for a plump, glass-like shine. A touch of magic, bottled. For Professional Use Only Benefits Translucent, buildable color – one coat creates a sheer stain, two coats build medium depth, and three coats deliver the richest color payoff while preserving the jelly effect Made for layering – adds a jewel-toned wash over cat eye, foil, and glitter designs without hiding the effect beneath Self-leveling thin-medium viscosity – applies in smooth, controlled layers for an even finish Fast 30-second cure – fully cures in an 18W+ LED lamp, including all Aprés LED lamps Built-in Brush-X™ – supports clean, precise application straight from the bottle HEMA-Free, TPO-Free, and TMPTA-Free – professional Gel Couleur performance in a thoughtfully formulated system Gel-X® system compatible – designed to work across natural nail and Gel-X® services How to Use: On Gel-X® Tips Etch the surface of the applied Gel-X® Tip with Gel-X Prep®.

Repeat for two or three total coats, depending on the desired depth. Finish with Builder Top Gelcoat or Non-Wipe Top Gelcoat. Cure 30–60 seconds, depending on top coat choice. Removal E-file off the topcoat and gel color, then soak in 100% pure acetone for 10–20 minutes, until the gel is soft and jelly-like. Gently lift the softened product with a remover tool or cuticle pusher; do not force removal. Lightly buff away any residue and finish with cuticle oil. Recommendations Build the glass effect – sandwich a cured layer of Builder Top Gelcoat between two Jelly coats to create extra depth, then finish with your preferred top gelcoat. Tint an existing effect – layer Jelly over Astral or Prismatic cat eye, pearlescent, flash glitter for a cohesive jewel-toned wash. Mix the finishes – apply jelly over an Enigmatic flash glitter shade to tint the sparkle or add Flash Glitter over Jelly for dimensional contrast. Add a spectrum shift – apply Heavenly Top Gelcoat over the cured jelly shade for a smooth, rainbow-gradient effect; finish with Builder Top Gelcoat for added dimension. Caution Shake well before use Avoid direct exposure to sunlight and high temperatures Avoid contact with eyes, mouth, and skin. In case of contact, rinse immediately with water. If there is any incident, contact a doctor immediately. It is recommended to clean bottles with alcohol only Pro Tip: Use Gel Couleur with Aprés Base Gelcoat X or Top Gelcoat X for a fully HEMA/TPO-Free system from start to finish.
