beetles Gel Polish Tipex Instant Apex Nail Tips — Medium Square 512pcs, 16 Sizes, Pre-arched Thick Acrylic-like Support

Beetles Tipex Instant Apex Nail Tips are pre-shaped, medium square salon-style tips with a built-in apex for sturdy, acrylic-like extensions without requiring a builder gel.

These ready-to-apply nail tips come in 16 sizes (00–14) with 512 pieces total, offering a thicker, structured option for DIY manicures and professional use. The tips feature a pronounced C-curve and a pre-etched underside so they bond cleanly with gel glue. Designed for a bold, durable finish, the Beetles Tipex tips give wearers a salon-quality silhouette—ideal when you want a visible apex and rigid support for overlays, polish, or sculpting.

How do these instant apex tips simplify at-home extensions?

Beetles Tipex tips arrive pre-shaped and pre-arched so you skip shaping a raw tip or forming an apex from scratch. Application reduces to prep, adhesive, placement, and cure, which cuts time compared with building an apex using thick gels or acrylic powder.

• Pre-arched C-curve for consistent arch and length
• Pre-etched underside enhances gel-glue adhesion
• Fits 16 sizes for easier matching to natural nails
• Works with standard LED/UV-cure gel glue protocols

What makes these tips different from flexible or thin nail tips?

Unlike wafer-thin soft tips intended for delicate overlays, Beetles Tipex tips are thicker and stiffer, offering a pronounced apex and a more acrylic-like feel. That extra substance gives bite and structural support—useful for those who prefer the look and durability of a stronger extension.

• Thicker construction for a substantial tactile feel
• Built-in apex provides visible height and profile
• Better suited to heavy overlays and long-wear styles
• Less flex reduces lifting under polish or embellishments

Which products and techniques pair best with these tips?

These tips are engineered to work with gel glue, builder gel topcoats, and traditional nail lacquer. For a long-lasting finish, prep the natural nail properly, apply a thin layer of gel glue, position the tip, and cure per glue instructions. Finish with shaping, filing to blend the seam if desired, and your choice of color or topcoat.

• Use a gel-cure adhesive for strongest bond
• File and blend seam minimally for a salon-fresh transition
• Layer colored gel or polish over the tip for a finished look
• Seal with a high-shine topcoat or matte finish as preferred

How do I choose the right size and maintain them?

The box includes an array of 16 sizes—test-fit each size to the natural nail before gluing to find the best match. After application, maintain tips with routine fills, gentle buffing, and appropriate removal procedures to preserve the natural nail plate.

• Match widest part of tip to nail width for best fit
• Reserve sizes for each finger to speed future sets
• Fill or rebalance the apex area as growth occurs
• Soak-off per recommended methods to avoid damage

Who is this for? Beetles Tipex Instant Apex Nail Tips suit DIY enthusiasts and salon professionals who want a reusable inventory of rigid, salon-shaped tips for medium square extensions. They’re ideal for people seeking a bold, structured look—those who prefer a firmer, acrylic-inspired extension rather than a thin, flexible tip—and for technicians who value predictable arches and quick application across multiple clients or at-home sets.
