This collection features a state-of-the-art mini nail lamp and natural-feeling soft gel nail tips. In this blog, we’ll walk you through everything you need to know, from what makes the PRO - X series special, to tips for application, a breakdown of shapes and sizes, and why this launch is about to change your nail game for good. Why You’ll Love The PRO - X Series Imagine applying durable, natural-looking nail extensions without the stress of ill-fitting tips or the hassle of curing issues. Sounds like a dream, right? Well, the PRO - X series is here to transform how you do your nails. Have you ever noticed that your nail tips just don’t sit right: feeling flat, loose, or prone to breakage? The problem isn’t always your gel liquids. Often, it comes down to the quality and design of the tips themselves. That’s why we created a new line of half-sized nail tips with a natural fit, improved apex, and exceptional durability, giving you a manicure that looks and feels flawless. Of course, a seamless nail extension process wouldn’t be complete without the perfect curing partner. Enter the PRO - X Mini Lamp, a sleek, innovative flash cure lamp that’s as functional as it is beautiful (a true win for nude shade lovers!). Created for inclusivity, accessibility, and convenience, this lamp features a flexible gooseneck for positioning and a touch sensor design for effortless use.

Important Details About PRO - X Mini Lamp Before you dive into using your new lamp, here are a few important things to know to ensure a smooth and safe curing process: 1. Charge Before Use Make sure the lamp is fully charged before turning it on. Use the provided cord and connect it to a compatible power adapter, then plug it into an appropriate outlet. 2. Activating Touch Sensor Once the lamp is securely connected to the gooseneck base, the touch sensor will automatically activate. Simply tap the chrome part to turn the lamp on. 3. Use Without Gooseneck If you prefer to use the lamp on its own (without the base), power it on manually by pressing the power button. The touch sensor won’t activate in this case. 4. Hands-Free Experience The LED Lamp comes equipped with an infrared sensor that automatically turns the light on and off. The default curing time is set to 30 seconds, making the process quick and trouble-free. 5. Sleep Mode For Energy Efficiency If there’s no activity for 5 minutes, the lamp will switch to sleep mode to conserve energy. Touch any switch on the operation panel to wake it up or resume normal working mode. How To Charge The PRO - X Mini Lamp To maximize performance and battery health, charge your lamp when the battery drops below 5%. When the battery reaches a critically low level, the power indicator light will start to flicker, meaning the lamp won’t function until it’s connected to a power source.

Follow these step-by-step instructions for a long-lasting application using the PRO - X Soft Gel Nail Tips and PRO - X Mini Lamp. 1. Measure each nail for the perfect fit Start by selecting the right size for each nail. With the new half-size options, it’s easier to get a precise fit that hugs your natural nail shape. Pro Tip: Don’t assume both hands are the same! Your right thumb may be slightly different in size than your left, so always measure each nail individually. 2. Etch the underside of the nail tip Using your E-File, gently etch the underside (the part that will make contact with your natural nail). This creates a rougher surface that helps the Pro Gel Base bond more securely, preventing lifting and improving overall durability. 3. File the nail tips you picked as needed If you’d like to adjust the shape or shorten the sides of your nail tips, now’s the time to do it. Use your E-File for precision and to customize the look before application. 4. Prep your natural nails After preparing the tips, prep your own nails with PH Bonder (removes oils and moisture from natural nail bed), Ultimate Bond Primer (promotes strong adhesion between your nail and the tip), and iGel Base Coat, then cure for 30 seconds under your lamp. 5. Apply Pro Gel Base to the natural nail Apply a thin, even layer of Pro Gel Base to your natural nail bed, then cure for 60 seconds. This step acts as the foundation for your nail extension. 6. Continue applying Pro Gel Base to the nail tip Take your prepared nail tip and apply Pro Gel Base to the etched underside. This ensures the tip adheres smoothly to your natural nail without gaps or lifting. 7. Scrape off excess gel at the cuticle area Before applying the tip, you must check and scrape off any excess Pro Gel Base around the cuticle edge of the nail tip. Using the built-in brush, gently scrape away the extra gel in this area. 8. Attach the nail tip at an angle Hold the nail tip at a slight angle and press it down onto your natural nail, starting at the cuticle area and moving forward to the free edge. Make sure there’s no trapped moisture or air bubbles under the tip. 9. Flash cure to secure the tip While holding the tip firmly in place, flash cure it under the PRO-X Mini Lamp for 30 seconds. Once you’ve applied tips to all nails, fully cure under a regular lamp for 60 seconds, locking everything in. 10. File and buff for a seamless finish Lightly file and buff the surface of the nail tip to recover shine and create a smooth, natural transition. This step also helps your gel polish adhere more evenly. 11. Paint the nail tips with your chosen gel polish Voila! Time for the fun part. You can now paint your favorite gel polish or create your nail art. PRO - X vs. Pro Gel Nail Tips: What’s the difference? 1.
