Gel Tips HEYLOVE Coffin Long - 500 pcs

Gel Tips HEYLOVE Coffin Long: the assumed ballerina

The long ballerina is the shape of professional accounts and of sets that get photographed. Its straight sides lengthen the hand dramatically, and the flat free edge gives it a graphic look that rounded shapes do not have.

The conversation to have before applying

It takes two minutes and prevents a disappointment. This kind of length changes everyday gestures for the first few days, and some professions make it impractical. Ask what the client does with her hands during a day before you start: it works better than a warning speech, and it positions you as an adviser rather than an executor.

How to apply

Buffing with a 100 grit file, degreasing with 96 per cent ethyl alcohol, dehydrator. Ultra Bond HEYLOVE over the whole plate, a thin coat of Rubber Base HEYLOVE Clear, 20 seconds under the lamp. Ultra Bond and base inside the tip, press without curing that base, one minute under the lamp.

Length amplifies everything

Keep that in mind during application. A one-degree misalignment at gluing becomes very visible over an extra centimetre of tip. Take the time to check the axis of each finger, hand laid flat, before the lamp. That check is optional on a medium length; it is not here.

What flexibility changes

On a long tip, rigidity is a fault: a material that does not flex breaks at the stress point. The brand states high flexibility and shock absorption, which matters precisely in this format. That is the criterion for choosing long tips, rather than price.

A word on wear

Glitter does not fade, it dulls: the top coat above it scratches, and the sparkle goes with it. That is why the quality of the seal decides how long the set stays impressive, far more than the gel underneath.

Origin and material

Made in Ukraine, imported without intermediary by NC Beauty Pro, its HEYLOVE distributor for France. The tips file down and are removed with gel polish remover. One box covers fifty full sets.
