Apres - Broomfall, J20 (HEMA/TPO/TMPTA-Free), 15ml

Broomfall carries the same idea as Coven's Curse before it — a translucent, buildable red stain rather than a flat, opaque color — but lands at its own point along the Jelly range's spread from vivid true red to dark wine. Part of the full Apres Gel Polish lineup.

How depth builds with each coat:

• One coat: sheer, glassy stain
• Two coats: medium depth, still translucent
• Three coats: richest payoff, jelly effect intact

That translucency is the whole point of the Jelly line — light passes through the color instead of getting blocked, giving a juicy, glass-like finish that a fully opaque red can't replicate.

Formula facts: self-leveling, thin-medium viscosity; 30-second cure under an 18W+ LED lamp; built-in Brush-X applicator; HEMA-free, TPO-free, TMPTA-free; Gel-X compatible.

Application — Gel-X Tips: etch with Gel-X Prep, apply 1–3 thin coats depending on desired depth (cure 30 sec each), seal with a top coat (cure 30–60 sec).

Application — Natural Nails: pH Bonder and air-dry, Base Gelcoat (cure 30 sec), 1–3 coats of Broomfall (cure 30 sec each), top coat to finish (cure 30–60 sec).

Removal: e-file off the top coat and color, soak in pure acetone 10–20 minutes until jelly-soft, lift gently, buff residue, finish with cuticle oil.

Where it really shines: layered over cat eye, foil, or an Enigmatic flash glitter shade, Broomfall tints the effect underneath with a jewel-toned wash rather than covering it up. Sandwiching a cured Builder Top Gelcoat layer between two coats deepens the glass-like effect further, and Heavenly Top Gelcoat on top adds a soft rainbow shift.

Volume: 15mL. Yield: ~40–60 manicures. Shelf life: 24 months. For professional use only.

Does Broomfall hide the design underneath if I layer it over cat eye or foil? No — it's built to tint, not cover, so the effect beneath stays visible through the translucent jelly wash.
