GAOYBuilder Gel for Nails, 16ml Nail Strengthener in a Bottle, Nail Extension Hard Gel, Soak Off Long Lasting UV Light Cure, 1726 Baby Pink, Base Coat Top Coat Needed

First off, the color is stunning! It’s perfect for a French manicure. Mine started lifting/peeling within a day, but it could be because I wasn’t careful with it, or I didn’t cure it like I was supposed to. It is so easy to apply, and it’s so shiny! I pay almost 3X the money for a different well-known brand, and this product is just as good. It’s very inexpensive, and you get a great product!

LOVED this product. I am an amateur nail girlie and usually make press ons for myself but I wanted to venture out. The application was so easy and it self levels very well. Very sturdy with proper prep. Did have some heat spikes but that's to be expected. I buffed nail plate and cuticle with 180 grit, cleaned off dust with alcohol, then dehydrator, half cover tip with nail glue, cover over all with acid free primer, then base gel coat, and finally 1 thin layer of the Builder Gel, cure, then 1 building layer of the Builder Gel. Before curing the last one, hold your apex upside down and it'll self level like a dream with little to no filing over required. Has lasted through cleaning house, general wear, and 2 plus hour bubble baths. Will DEFINITELY be getting more of this.

Was good at first. Then one of the builder gel bottles got stuck shut (no, i didn’t place it near a uv light). It was durable and easy to apply and it was worth the money but it burns when you apply it. It’s clear so you can put whatever color over it. And it doesn’t snap off easily. It stays on your nails until you take it off and there are no bubbles in it.

This stuff is amazing! I had to take a break from acrylic nails- which left me with brittle, thin, and uneven nails. I needed something to make my nails look better and thicker. I found this stuff and it is the most amazing product! My nails feel so much better and look great! Now once you apply this builder gel it will feel tacky even after curing but this is the solution:To remove the sticky/tacky top coat, you can wipe it off with 90% alcohol and a lint-free wipe AFTER it has cured in the UV light for 90- 120 sec! Works everytime, not sure why they don't say to do that on the bottle instructions :)

This is an amazing product. My nails were so damaged after getting them done at the salon. They were weak and would break constantly even with polish on. I hated the deep divots left by the drill.This product not only self levels, it fills in all the divots and keeps my nails strong until they grow out.I love the natural color too.

These are great. They go on like regular nail polish. And I use them whenever I break a nail. I just make sure that I don’t file the nail whenever it cracks up the edges and that I put some extra builder on that spot. Usually, when the nail starts growing out, there’s a little dip at the spot. But I have not had any problems since I started using it to fix a broken nail. Also, if you have to put in a nail tip because there was no saving the broken nail, you don’t have to do a lot of prep to even it out. And it doesn’t make your nails look like they’re acrylic. It looks like you have gel polish.

The builder gel works as most builder gels in a bottle do, however, this is a little thin and runs easily. Once built up into the perfect bead on the nail, I can cure it fully and it forms the perfect apex, however there is a leftover, greasy residue that is simply inconvenient and quite annoying to handle. I use these under my gel pressons to protect my nail underneath, and it makes them last really long with the correct prep! A bit hard to remove after soaking them in acetone, and took a while to fully remove with the use of a drill.

I’ve used another brand of builder gel as a gel glue for gel extensions and assumed this one would work the same. I’ve had so many problems these last two sets, to my nails popping off, my nails getting paper thin, and my thumb nail ripping off at the top by my cuticles. Please be careful and use it to build your nail as intended. THIS DOES NOT WORK AS GEL GLUE. I understand this is due to my mistake, but hopefully someone else does not get mistaken like I did.For my rating, I’m rating this based on my experience as a builder above my gel nail. It’s thick and takes a little time to settle. I like others that are a bit smoother and thinner, but they normally take a several layers to build where I’m happy. The thickness of this builder can help with less layering. It just takes a little getting used to.
