LAVIS Cat Eyes C12 - 12 - Gel Polish 0.5 oz - Candy Quartz Collection

Lavis C12-12 is rosy pink moonlight cat eye, one of 24 in the Candy Quartz line. The palette is candied jelly tones with a playful, smooth cat eye and the finish is smooth jelly cat eye; a cat eye magnet over the wet second coat draws the streak.

How to apply C12-12

1. Prep: cuticles back, buff the shine off, wipe, then cure a thin gel base (Base & Top Gel).
2. First thin coat of C12-12, 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 C12-12

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.

Why is my line soft? Timing: cure each nail within a second or two of lifting the magnet. A thin second coat or a magnet held too far away gives a faint line.

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