@ I got them off the Apres website! I did find them on Amazon when I just looked, but I’ve never ordered the refills from there to be honest! amzn.to/40pzdCV
Hi! Such great information, thanks for this. Question: how do you recommend getting the apex of your natural nail tip to stick to the extension? If there is a gap only toward the end of your nail. Maybe a first layer of builder gel to change the apex or just a thicker application would be better orrrr…?
Hi! The builder gel or whatever nail gel glue you use will fill the gap between your natural nail and the extension. I do a thin layer of builder gel first on my natural nail. I use the Natural curve tips from Apres because the apex isn’t too high like their sculpted tips. You might want to try full covers that aren’t too high in the apex area!
@@catous733 you’re welcome!! No I could never wait 24 hours without getting my hands wet. I wash my hands probably 20 minutes before I start my nail prep. And as soon as my nails are done and dry, I wash my hands.
@@NicolesBeautyScene I meant to say 12hrs! Sorry! But yeah, really glad i dont have to wait! I was told with press-ons to not get your hands wet for 12hrs aprox, but that is hard to do! Thank you again!!

Is the link you provided for the larger tips? I have very large nailbeds as well and have a hard time finding tips that cover my thumbs.
That is for their Amazon pack that comes with up to 00. You have to buy the 000 separately!
@@NicolesBeautyScene Where do you get the 000?

@ thank you so much! 🥰❤️ Restarting my nail journey after a lifetime of biting and your videos/tips are so helpful!
@ you’re welcome!! Good luck and let me know anytime you have questions!!
Can I use rubber base to adhere the nail tip instead of builder?
@@bettylim8869 yes! You absolutely can!!
5:52 Thank you for the advice! I will do builder gel next time without base gel!! Btw, do you wait 24hrs before getting your hands wet?
