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 its "perfect formula" with ideal viscosity for sculpting extensions. Many reported 3-5 weeks wear time with excellent self-leveling and even curing. The sterling silver color is "stunning." Common praise: strong apex build and c-curve retention. Minor concerns: brush quality, bottle size, occasional bubbles initially.

Хороший билдер гель

Довольна покупкой. Гель хорошо самовыравнивается и равномерно полимеризуется. Сделала наращивание в оттенке и результат красивый. Минус за кисть которая могла быть мягче

Bonne formule

Bonne surprise ! Extension au double-forme réussie du premier coup. Durcissement nickel sous ma lampe 48W. Je retire juste une étoile car la brosse pourrait être un peu plus large pour travailler plus vite

WOW this is something else

Literally told all my friends about this gel. Did a set of almond extensions in sterling silver and they lasted almost 5 weeks. The color is stunning and the formula is just perfect in every way

Calidad increíble

Primer set completo con este gel y me ha dejado sin palabras. Se nivela sola perfectamente, sin burbujas, sin capa pegajosa. La c-curve aguanta como un campeón. Mis uñas están increíbles!!

Хорошая формула

Неплохой гель. Работаю в салоне, тестировала на клиентках. Держится 2-3 недели. Одна клиентка имела отслоение раньше но это был вопрос prep. В целом рекомендую

UWIELBIAM ten żel!!

Idealna formuła. Nie za gęsta do konturowania, nie za rzadka. Kolor srebro szterlingowe jest jeszcze piękniejszy na paznokciu niż na zdjęciu. Już zamówiłam kolejne kolory

Почти идеально

Довольно хорошо! Использовала для оверлея на натуральных ногтях, уже почти 3 недели держится. Небольшой скол на кончике в конце но это нормально. Цвет очень красивый

ОБОЖАЮ этот гель!!

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

Lo recomiendo

Muy buen gel! Hice un set completo de extensiones y quedaron preciosas. Tuve un pequeño levantamiento en un dedo a los 10 días pero creo que fue mi preparación. Repetiré la compra

Absolutamente increíble

Llevo 7 años haciendo extensiones y este es uno de los mejores geles builder que he probado. Viscosidad ideal para esculpir, el ápex queda precioso. Soy fan!

Rewelacyjna jakość

Pierwszy pełny set z tym żelem i jestem zachwycona. Auto-nivelacja idealna, bez bąbelków, bez kleistej warstwy po polimeryzacji. C-curve trzyma się doskonale!!

Works well for overlays

Good gel overall. Applied it over nail forms for a set of c-curve extensions. The viscosity is nice, not too runny. I'd give it 5 stars but the apex took a bit of work to build up properly. Still very satisfied

Perfect for extensions omg

As a nail tech this product is everything. Consistent batch to batch, beautiful colors, excellent working time before curing. My clients are always asking me what brand I use

Michael (United States)
Good consistency

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

Kylie (United Kingdom)
Almost perfect

Happy with the extensions I built using this gel. Holds the c-curve well, no cracking. The sterling silver tone is beautiful on extensions. Would have been 5 stars but had a small bubble on one nail

Хорошая формула

Хороший гель для строительства. Полимеризуется хорошо, без липкого слоя. Наращивания хорошо сформированы, с-изгиб стабильный. Только хотелось бы больше геля во флаконе

Game changer fr

Just did my first full set with this and I'm speechless. The gel self-levels like a dream, no bubbles, no sticky residue after curing. C-curve holds perfectly. My nails look like I went to a salon!!

5 estrellas sin dudar

Fórmula perfecta. No demasiado espesa para contornear, no demasiado fluida para perder el control. El color plata esterlina es aún más bonito en la uña que en la foto. Ya he pedido 3 colores más

Melissa (United States)
Good but not my fav

Really nice consistency. Not too thick, not too runny. Used it for an overlay on short nails and the result is clean and natural looking. Lasts well. Minor issue: the cap is a bit stiff

Bon pour les extensions

Très bon gel de construction dans l'ensemble. Je l'ai utilisé pour poser un full set d'extensions et le résultat est joli. Petit soulèvement sur un doigt après 12 jours mais c'était probablement ma prépa. Je rachète

Amparo (Spain)
Lo recomiendo

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

Nice color, good build

Good builder gel. I work in a salon and tested it on a few clients. Results were solid, lasted 2-3 weeks for most. One client had a lift on one nail but that was a prep issue not the gel. Would reorder

Boa durabilidade

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

Dobra formuła

Całkiem dobry. Nieco bąbelków przy pierwszym użyciu ale nauczyłam się techniki i kolejne sety były bez zarzutu. Odcień srebro szterlingowe jest przepiękny na dłuższych paznokciach

Nice result, minor issues

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

Que gel maravilhoso!!

Tenho ateliê de unhas e esse gel virou meu produto principal. Clientes ficam com as extensões por 4 semanas ou mais sem problema. A teinte é linda em unhas mais longas. Recomendo muito!

Ogólnie zadowolona

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

Aubrey (United States)
Good consistency

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 sterling silver shade looks stunning too

Muito bom gel!

Fiz overlay nas minhas unhas naturais e ficou ótimo, já faz quase 3 semanas. Um chip pequenininho numa ponta no finalzinho mas nada grave. O gel se trabalha muito bem, é fácil de controlar

Warta kupna

Dobry żel do budowania. Zrobiłam pełny zestaw extensions i wyszło ładnie. Miałam małe unoszenie na jednym palcu po 12 dniach ale to chyba moja wina przy przygotowaniu. Kupię ponownie
