For strength, structure and support.

An all-time favourite, Builder Gel is renowned for delivering strength and durability to your manicures. Its thicker, self-levelling formula cures to a hard, protective layer. This added strength and structure brings exceptional durability, helping prevent breakage, support nail growth and long-lasting wear.

Start with a thin coat after applying Base Coat, then build up an apex as your nails grow longer. No need to fully remove each time, simply file down to the Builder Gel layer and backfill for easy maintenance.

Features

  • Adds strength and structure for enhanced durability and less breakage.
  • Thick, self-levelling formula cures to a hard, solid finish.
  • Supports nail growth due to its strong protective layer.
  • No need to fully remove each time, simply file back to the Builder Gel layer and backfill.

    My favourite base

    I love this builder gel. It’s a great base for doing nude nails and French tips. Lasts me weeks if not months, my nails have never grown so long.

    Perfect for DIY

    I have never been able to grow out my natural nails, so always stuck to getting acrylics done. I decided to start using builder gel but I can’t justify the cost of getting my nails professionally done anymore! This builder gel is amazing, easy to apply and feels as strong as an acrylic! My bendy nails are rock solid! Couldn’t recommend this enough! I applied the French kiss colour to the top of the builder gel
