 Our Aprés Non-Acidic Gel Primer is the second step to creating beautiful Gel-X extensions. After applying the pH Bonder, our Non-Acidic Gel Primer creates a tacky surface on the nail that allows for better adhesion to the Gel-X tip. Formulated to be acid-free, this primer gently etches and preps the nail without any danger of causing any soreness or sensitivity that is commonly associated with acid based primers. Our Non-Acidic Gel Primer will ensure a long lasting and comfortable wear for any set of Gel-X extensions!

 Our Aprés pH Bonder is the first step to creating beautiful Gel-X extensions. After prepping the natural nail, our pH Bonder properly dehydrates the nail, removing any oils or residue that could impede a clean and proper Gel-X application. Our Aprés pH Bonder works great as a starting point for the Gel-X application but it can also be used for acrylic or gel services as well!
