LAVIS Cat Eyes C16 - 08 - Gel Polish 0.5 oz - Honey Eclipse Collection

Peach nude: that is Lavis C16-08, from the 24-shade Honey Eclipse cat eye line (celestial honey, amber twilight, warm rose and dusk with a rose-gold line). The finish is glow and shimmer cat eye, and the line forms when a magnet is held over the wet second coat.

Why techs pick C16-08

• Glow and shimmer 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.
• 0.5 fl oz (15 mL) salon bottle, high-gloss, smooth application.
• 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 C16-08

1. Prep: cuticles back, buff the shine off, wipe, then cure a thin gel base (Base & Top Gel).
2. First thin coat of C16-08, 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 C16-08

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.

Can I wear C16-08 over a dark base? Yes, and the line reads strongest that way. Cure a coat of black or a deep solid first, then apply C16-08 and magnetize the second coat.

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