When it comes to creating a quick set of extensions, there's nothing like using Gelish Soft Gel Tips. The ultra-light jelly-like tips fit perfectly to the nail for a strong and break-resistant extension. And who isn't in awe of a service that takes 20 minutes to create a full set? The clear tips are a great base for virtually any nail look from full color gel polish to nail art. But now your neutral nail clients are going to flip for these neutral tips. They provide the perfect foundation for summer's lip-gloss nail trend (i.e., neutral nails finished with ultra-glossy top coat), French styles, negative-space nail art and more!
