No-File Cover Gels – Premium Series in 9 Nude Shades

The No-File Cover Gels from Studio Amelie have been specially developed for fast, clean, and precise modeling – tested and recommended by Anela Mucic, Nail Design World Champion 2023 & INJA judge. Their thixotropic consistency ensures that the structure levels out almost by itself – with no filing required. The series includes 9 coordinated nude shades, ranging from crystal clear to warm-opaque, available in 5g and 15g (Amelie & Timeless only in 15g).

Note on color representation: We photograph each color under multiple lighting conditions to represent them as accurately as possible in the shop. However, as color rendering depends on the screen, calibration, and ambient light, the actual shade may differ slightly from the image during application. If you have any questions about the color, we are happy to assist you personally.

Why the No-File technique is compelling

The no-file technique reduces dust accumulation, material consumption, and strain for both you and your clients. It is perfectly suited for natural looks, sensitive nails, and fast refill appointments where a clean structure should be created directly from the brush.

The 9 shades at a glance

• Pure – neutral, clear, the most universal shade in the series

Advantages of the No-File Cover Gels

• Stable application — the gel stays exactly where you place it

Anela's professional tip

“A good thixotropic gel must be able to do two things: flow under the brush and then immediately stay in place. This way, you save yourself the filing process entirely. For beginners, I recommend Pure or Timeless as a neutral start; for warmer skin types, I reach for Nudist or Amelie. For French modeling, Perfect French or French Pink are my first choice for the base.” – Anela Mucic, Nail Design World Champion 2023 & INJA judge

Why don't Amelie and Timeless come in a 5g size?
These two shades are available exclusively in the 15g size.

Which shade is suitable for French modeling?
Perfect French and French Pink are specifically designed as a clear or milky French base, respectively; Lace is suitable as a particularly light alternative.
