How to apply C15-23

1. Prep: cuticles back, buff the shine off, wipe, then cure a thin gel base (Base & Top Gel).
2. First thin coat of C15-23, 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 C15-23

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 C15-23 over a dark base? Yes, and the line reads strongest that way. Cure a coat of black or a deep solid first, then apply C15-23 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.
