COLOUR

Colour Builder Gel Method: If you are using a coloured or clear Gentle Gels™ Builder Gel only, start by applying a slip layer (a very thin layer of builder gel) onto a prepped nail. Do not cure this layer. Next, place a bead of builder gel near the cuticle and gently spread it down the nail, working from left to right and focusing on building an apex for strength. Cure for 60 seconds.

Or Gel Polish Colour Method: You can also use your normal gel polish to colour with Gentle Gels™ Builder Gel for added strength. First, apply a slip layer (a very thin layer of builder gel) onto a prepped nail and do not cure. Follow this with a bead of chosen Gentle Gels™ Builder Gel, spreading it gently from left to right, and cure for 60 seconds. Then apply 2x thin layers of your chosen Gel Polish Colour, curing each layer for 60 seconds. Note: Your polish will remain tacky until you apply and cure your Gel Polish Top Coat - this is normal!

Frequently asked questions

IS BUILDER GEL THE SAME AS BIAB?

Builder gel and BIAB are similar in that both create structure and strength over the natural nail. BIAB is a branded version of builder gel. The key difference is application technique and flexibility. Builder gel is used to add strength, not to overload the nail.

CAN I USE GEL POLISH COLOUR WITH BUILDER GEL?

Absolutely! Our Hema-Free Builder Gel works perfectly as a base to strengthen your natural nail and allow for Gel Polish colour application on top. Once builder gel is cured and shaped, you can apply gel colour over it and cure as normal. This gives you added strength underneath your colour. Always finish with a top coat to seal and protect the layers. Follow our Hema-Free Builder Gel Application Guide for step-by-step method.

WHY DOES MY BUILDER GEL LIFT?

It could be a few different reasons but the most common one is nail plate not being prepped correctly before gel application. Ensure your nails are free from oils and creams, the nail plate is etched and all of the shine is removed. Most importantly make sure to use Perfect Prep™ before any gel application for those long-lasting, chip-free results.

DO I NEED BUILDER GEL OR IS GEL POLISH ENOUGH?

Gel polish is ideal for adding long-lasting colour to naturally strong nails. Builder gel is used when you need extra structure or support. If your nails bend, split or struggle to grow, builder gel may help. Strength comes from structure, not stacking more colour.
