Rosy pink moonlight cat eye. Lavis C12-01 is one of the 24 shades in the Candy Quartz line, candied jelly tones with a playful, smooth cat eye: a magnetic cat eye gel with a smooth jelly cat eye finish that pulls its line under a magnet.

Why techs pick C12-01

• Smooth jelly cat eye finish from the Lavis C-series, the specialty-finish range.
• Formulated without HEMA: stated as what is left out, not as a promise that nobody can react.

• 60 second cure per coat under UV or LED; Lavis quotes up to 21 days of wear with proper prep and a top coat.

How to apply C12-01

1. Prep: cuticles back, buff the shine off, wipe, then cure a thin gel base (Base & Top Gel).
2. First thin coat of C12-01, cured 60 seconds, no magnet.
3. Second, slightly fuller coat; before it cures hold a cat eye magnet a few millimeters above the wet gel for a few seconds, then cure that nail at once.
4. Full cure, then a glossy gel top coat. A dark cured base underneath makes the line read stronger.

Questions about C12-01

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.

Is a magnet included? No. Magnets are sold separately in our Magnet collection; any bar or stylus nail magnet works. Without one the gel cures as an even shimmer over the base color.

How is it removed? A normal gel soak-off: file the top thin, wrap in acetone, wait, push the softened gel away. Never pry.
