Questions about C05-19

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 C05-19 need? Two coats for full opacity; the glow shades charge under the cure lamp and glow in the dark afterward. 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.
