Safe usage

Prevent the gel polish from coming into contact with the skin and cuticles to minimise the risk of a possible acrylate allergy. If any gel polish touches the skin, remove it immediately with a woodstick, corrector pen, or a wipe with cleaner before curing under the lamp.

Preparation

File the nails with the nail file and buff the nail plate with a polishing block. Then degrease the nails with a nail wipe with some cleaner. Finish your preparation by applying the Prep Booster all over the nail plate and letting it air dry for 30 seconds.

How to apply

Step 1. Apply Build it Base:

A slip layer is a thin coat that improves grip for the second layer of Build it Base. Apply a thin slip layer, keeping a 1 mm distance from the cuticles. Cure for 120 seconds under the LED lamp. Then, take a small amount of Build it Base and apply it at the base of the nail. Gently spread the gel towards the sides and the tip using our

Fine Liner

, ensuring even coverage. Cure again for 120 seconds under the LED lamp.

Tip:

Want to create extra curvature? Before curing, turn your hand upside down for a few seconds to let the gel flow toward the centre of the nail.

Optional. Apply Colour:

Apply 1 or 2 layers of your favourite colour. Cure each layer for 60 seconds under the LED lamp.

Step 2. Apply Top Coat: 

Apply a thin layer of Top Coat and cure it for 60 seconds under the LED lamp. Wait 2 minutes, then remove the sticky layer with a nail wipe and some cleaner.

Extra care:

Wait 1 minute after removing the sticky layer with cleaner, then apply Cuticle Oil to your cuticles and massage gently.

  • A wonderful product! Very high quality!

    inneke mommen | 68 days ago

  • It applies smoothly and doesn't run, so you can coat all your nails at once before curing them under the lamp.

  • The build it base adds thickness and strength to the nail. I had a small crack starting to form on my thumbnail. This builder gives you a stronger base, allowing the nail to grow longer. Note that it also gives the nail a more rounded effect. I didn't like two coats because they were too thick, so stick to one coat.

  • Very good product, but it does tend to come off more easily around the edges (despite all the prep and prime steps and products). Nevertheless, I'm a fan!

    Britt | 127 days ago
