Apres - Bare Gel-X Sculpted Refill Bag

Apres Bare Gel-X Sculpted Refill Bag

A restock option for the Sculpted fit — the same thin, natural-feeling extension system as the standard Bare Gel-X line, packaged for topping up specific sizes rather than repurchasing a full box.

Why Bare Gel-X Stands Apart

Meet your new natural. Bare Gel-X is Apres' thinnest, most natural-feeling extension yet — designed to be thin, durable, and completely customizable. With its low profile and ultra-thin finish, this full-coverage extension system blends so seamlessly that it leaves you wondering: is it natural nails, or Bare Gel-X? Sculpted specifically hugs a more curved natural nail bed, while offering the same barely-there look that blends into your own nails.

What It's Suited For

• Reinforcing weak, bendy, or flexible natural nails
• Correcting uneven lengths from breaks or cracks
• Short nails that need structure without bulk
• Seamless, natural-looking repairs
• Minimal sets that still feel polished and intentional

Sizes and Count

This refill bag contains 50 pieces total, covering the 16-size range used across the Bare Gel-X Sculpted system, including the 7.5 half size and 000. Restocking the sizes your clients use most often avoids the waste of reordering a full box just to replace a handful of depleted sizes.

How to Apply

Prep: Cleanse, dehydrate, and lightly etch the natural nail. Apply pH Bonder and Non-Acidic Primer (optional).

Sizing: Apply a Bare Gel-X Tip without pressing down too hard — it should fit sidewall to sidewall with no pinching. Once the correct size is chosen, etch the underside with Gel-X Prep.

Apply: Apply Extend Gel Non-Wipe on the natural nail and cure. Apply a bead of Extend Gel onto the tip and gently apply at a 45-degree angle. Flash cure until all five fingers are applied, then fully cure in an LED lamp for 30 seconds.

Customize: Remove the hexagonal handle and trim and shape as desired. Etch the surface with Gel-X Prep, then apply a Gel Couleur of your choice. Finish with Top Gelcoat X or Builder Top Gelcoat.

Pro tip: Bare Gel-X extensions should only extend half the length of the natural nail.
