Questions

Why does builder gel lift?

Elegelli builder gel holds 28 days and more. When a set lifts, look at the prep first: cuticle left on the nail plate, shine not fully removed, or gel touching the skin. Under-curing is the other cause: cure each layer 60 s under LED or 120 s under UV.

Will it run into the cuticles?

No. It self-levels, then holds where you place it, so the apex stays where you built it. Keep the jar at room temperature, between 15 and 25 °C, and the texture stays the same.

Does it get hot under the lamp?

No. It cures without a heat spike, so hands stay in the lamp for the full cure. For a very thick build, cure in two layers rather than one.

Will it crack at the stress area?

No. It stays strong where the nail flexes, so you don’t need to pile product on the stress area to stop it snapping.

How do I remove it?

With a file or an e-file, not by soaking, so there is no 30-minute wait. Leave a thin layer for the refill, or file down to the natural nail without ever forcing it off.

Is it HEMA-free?

Yes. It contains no HEMA and no TPO (it cures with TMO), and the full ingredient list is on this page. HEMA-free does not mean allergy-free: keep the gel off the skin and cure every layer fully.

Customers praised this builder gel for exceptional self-leveling, perfect curing, and long-lasting extensions (3-5 weeks). The milky opaline iridescent shade received rave reviews. Professionals and home enthusiasts noted "excellent working time," "no lifting," and "builds the apex nicely." Minor concerns: smaller bottle size and brush quality.

Almost perfect

Good formula for sculpting. Builds the apex nicely, cures without sticky layer once sealed. My clients like the result. I took off one star because i wish there was more product in the bottle

UWIELBIAM ten żel!!

Prowadzę salon i ten żel stał się moim numerem jeden. Klientki noszą extensions 4-5 tygodni bez problemu. Odcień mleczna opalina iryzująca wygląda przepięknie na dłuższych paznokciach. Bardzo polecam!

Happy with the extensions

Used this as an overlay on my natural nails and they lasted almost 3 weeks. A bit of chipping at the tips near the end but for the price its honestly great. The milky opaline iridescent shade looks stunning too

Works well for overlays

Nice formula for building extensions. It self-levels well and cures properly under my 48W lamp. Removed one star bc i feel like the bottle could be bigger, but the gel itself is really good quality

Абсолютно потрясающе

Этот гель НЕВЕРОЯТНЫЙ. Сделала 3 полных сета и каждый раз наращивания идеальные. Самовыравнивание отличное, полимеризация равномерная, ноль отслоений. Больше не вернусь к прежней марке

Pretty good builder gel

Decent builder gel. It does what it's supposed to - builds, cures, holds. Extensions lasted nearly 3 weeks on me. Minus one star for the brush which could be better quality

5 étoiles sans hésiter

Formule parfaite. Ni trop épaisse pour sculpter, ni trop fluide pour perdre le contrôle. La teinte opaline laiteuse iridescente est encore plus belle sur l'ongle qu'en photo. Déjà en train de commander d'autres coloris

MEU NOVO FAVORITO

Fórmula perfeita. Não é grossa demais pra esculpir nem fluida demais pra perder controle. A cor fica ainda mais bonita na unha do que na foto. Já pedi mais 3 cores

Muito bom gel! Fiz um full set de extensões e ficou lindo. Só tive um pequeno levantamento num dedo após 10 dias mas foi problema de preparação meu. A fórmula em si é excelente. Compraria de novo

Casi perfecto

Buena viscosidad para esculpir. El ápex se construye fácilmente y la c-curve aguanta bien. Le quito una estrella porque el frasco es pequeño para el precio. Pero la calidad del gel es buena

Лучший builder gel вообще

Третий заказ и всё ещё возвращаюсь. Наращивания держатся более 4 недель, прочная структура, ноль трещин в точке стресса. Лучший гель для построения

Decent sculpting gel

My second time ordering this and I'm still happy. Extensions hold up well, the gel files easily after curing. The only thing is it runs slightly thin for very long extensions but for medium length its perfect

Niezły żel builder. Pracuję w salonie i testowałam na kilku klientkach. Efekty dobre, trzyma 2-3 tygodnie. Jedna klientka miała problem z unoszeniem ale to była kwestia prep. Polecam

5 stars, no hesitation

omg this builder gel is INCREDIBLE. I've done 3 sets with it now and every single time the extensions come out flawless. Self-leveling is perfect, curing is even, no lifting whatsoever. I'm never going back to my old brand

Première pose complète avec ce gel et je suis bluffée. L'auto-nivellement est parfait, pas de bulles, pas de couche collante après polymérisation. La c-curve tient comme un roc. Mes ongles sont magnifiques !!
