Questions about C03-13
What does HEMA-free mean here? Lavis formulates the C-series without HEMA, the small monomer in most gel products and the one most often named when a client reacts to gel. That is an exclusion, not a guarantee that no one reacts.
How many coats does C03-13 need? Two thin pearl coats; a third deepens the opal glow on the lighter shades. Keep a swatch tip at one, two and three coats so the client can choose.
How is it removed? A normal gel soak-off: file the top thin, wrap in acetone, wait, push the softened gel away. Never pry.
