Clear Builder Nail Gel Kit: 3 Pcs 15ml Builder Nail Gel Base Top Gels with Castor Oil Vitamin E Apex Building for Thickening Extension Strengthening Repair Nails Art DIY Home Salon Gift Set

I love this product! It has saved me over $200 and I've only used it 2x. After I took the acrylic off my nails weren't weak but the nail tech's filing would've thinned them out. Doing this myself kept them strong. It's easy to use just follow the instructions and it last 2-3 weeks. Use it with or without gel polish (I used it without). The only downside is you will have to buy the brush cleaner and slip solution separately.

Top tier product! Saves me so much money from going to the salon. With a little practice, this is easy low to no damage alternatives to nail maintenance

This kit comes with the base coat, the builder gel and the top coat. So you have everything you need to use this product. Builder in a bottle is great for doing overlay on your nails to increase the structural integrity. Having the matching base coat and top coat means you don't have to buy those separately, which is great and the products are made to work together so you don't have to worry about compatibility. The builder gel itself is very thick and very strong and having it in the bottle with the brush makes it easy to use. I personally like to do a layer of builder gel underneath all of my enhancements so that it protects my natural nails when I remove the enhancements. You do need a light to cure this product though it is not airdry. 10 out of 10.

Throughout my life I've only had acrylic nails a handful of times for special occassions. I don't like the feel and some are painful. I started having nails done professionally about a year ago. I 'thought' I had found a gal that was nail health cautious and learned there were other options vs acrylic forms and still keep my own nails, but noticed it required a lot of drill grinding. I was told builder gel would not require as much grinding (Turned out to be totally false!!). These techs are being taught to go straight to grinding for removing everything from nail color down to prepping the nail surface for the new manicure. That means with every manicure they are RE-grinding the old nail while grinding the new growth! I am NOT a piece of furniture! I decided to give my nails a break. I removed their gel polish and builder gel and realized the horrible damage they were causing vs my healthy nail. I literally have an obvious shelf line where grinded nail meets healthy growth! Basically, in my mind, the application process damage for powder dip and/or gel is equally, if not, worse than for gluing on acrylic forms! All that said, for the cost of ONE mani/pedi, I purchased a dryer and products to DYI my own. The internet has a vast amount of info, instructional and tips from reviews, etc., to dyi your nails and still maintain its health. The damaged portion of my nails are so thin and weak I have to keep a thick layer of traditional polish on to keep it from breaking and/or temporarily keep the deep, painful splitting together until it grows past the nail bed. I decided I needed something even thicker and found this product. Don't be intimidated! The nail salons make it look like it's a huge task when it actually isn't at all! Make sure your nails are throughly washed & dry, use rubbing alcohol to remove excess oils and dirt. Use a nail buffer (think of it as an eraser) and another cotton ball of alcohol to remove the buffers particles left behind. Then follow the simple instructions for the builder gel product. I found this product to do fairly well. It was easier to apply than I thought it would be. I only applied 1 layer and got a bit over a week. I'm ok with that, given this early in healing and growth. Gives me an opportunity to apply a good nail vitamin oil for a day between stripping off the old and apply the new. I know I'll get better as time goes on and I also know my nails will be healthier as a result! Yes, I've weighed the chemicals needed to remove the gel vs excessive grinding combined with the chemicals to remove and potentials for infection from improper sanitation, etc. I'll take the lesser of the 2 evils! Will I ever get 4 weeks like I would from the nail salons? Probably not. But I will have peace of mind.

I love this product especially the builder gel. The foundation is really good for holding jewelry and gems. The top coat works well to. Will definitely be buying again. I used this to fill in my nails from nail salon. Make sure to buy nails polish that is for curing. That's the nail set with color shown here. I'm not the best at polishing my nails but I love this set .

I grew my nails out using an acrylic overlay but I was over going to the salon and wanted an easy way to keep my nails strong at home. As a first time user this product was easy to use. The builder gel is a nice thick consistency but not too thick so it is easy to spread. The tip of one of my nails did lift from the gel and break but the gel is still there and strong, almost like I used nail forms. I only did one layer and I’m pretty sure 2 layers would be very sturdy. The feel of my nails aren’t perfect (lumpy) but they look smooth, I don’t think this is due to the product but an error I made when laying the gel. The top coat has a high shine.

This builder does not wear off or break off. You have to literally drill it off with a nail file, which is wonderful. I put mine on about 29 days ago and they are still going strong.
