How do you apply builder gel?
Start with a clean, well-prepped nail: nail prep, primer, then base coat. Apply a thin foundation layer, place a bead of gel in the center of the nail and spread it out to build a smooth, even curve. Cure under a UV/LED lamp.
How long does builder gel last?
A builder gel manicure typically holds for 3–4 weeks, depending on regrowth, the condition of the natural nail, product quality and application technique. Working on a healthy nail plate helps it last.
Which shade should you choose?
From pink and light pink to milky, beige and fully transparent, builder gel comes in a shade for every look — ideal for extensions, structural strength, and styles like baby boomer ombré and the classic French.
