Clair, I don't cut the tips either. However, as CA catalyzes with the moisture content on the surface you are bonding, any moisture on your pipette will contaminate the glue in the bottle. I always pour a little on to a piece of foil or whatever first and then use an applicator (pipette, popsicle stick, etc..).
