Which UV Gels Should You Choose?

Clear Builder Gel

Clear gel is particularly versatile. It can be used to build, strengthen, create extensions or encapsulate decorations.

It provides an excellent base for applying a semi-permanent top coat.

Nude Pink Builder Gel

Nude pink instantly creates a natural and sophisticated look. It is ideal for:

• nail shaping;
• the French manicure;
• the Baby Boomer;
• natural extensions;
• wedding manicures.

Nude Caramel Builder Gel

Nude caramel creates a warm, modern look. This shade is ideal for natural manicures, caramel French manicures and nail art in shades of beige, chocolate or gold.

Milky Gel

Milky gel offers a delicate, milky-white finish. It is highly popular for minimalist designs, Baby Boomer styles and elegant manicures.

Cover Gel

Cover gel generally provides greater coverage. It helps to create a visually even base and is an excellent choice for French manicures.

Self-Levelling Gel

The self-levelling gel spreads more easily across the surface of the nail. When applied correctly, it can minimise brush marks and reduce the need for filing.

Flexible Builder Gel

Flexible Builder Gel is mainly used to strengthen and coat natural nails. Its flexibility may be beneficial for certain natural nails, depending on the assessment and the desired length.

How to Choose the Right UV Gel?

Depending on your skill level

For a beginner, a medium and stable viscosity is often easier to control thana very runny product.

A gel that is too runny may quickly run towards the cuticles, whilst an excessively thick product may be more difficult to spread.

Depending on the type of application

For a short extension, a Builder Gel or a Flexible Builder may be suitable, depending on the natural nail plate.

For a longer extension, choose a gel designed for building that can maintain a solid structure.

Depending on the desired colour

Choose:

• Clear for transparency and encapsulation;
• Milky for a milky effect;
• Nude Pink for a natural look;
• Cover for greater visual coverage;
• Caramel for a warm, modern nude.

Depending on the lamp used

Always check that the product is compatible with your lamp. A lamp that appears powerful is not automatically suitable for all formulations.

Follow the curing instructions given on the product information sheet.

How to Apply UV Builder Gel?

1. Prepare the nails

Disinfect your hands and tools. Push back the cuticles, then gently remove any loose skinto the nail plate.

2. Mattify the natural nail plate

Remove only the shine from the nail usingusing a buffer or a suitable file. Do not weaken the nail plate by filing excessively.

3. Remove dust

Carefully remove all dust before applying the preparation products.

4. Apply Nail Prep and Primer

Use them in accordance with the protocol and the needs of the natural nail. Avoid any contact with the skin.

5. Apply the base coat

Apply a thin layer of Base Coat when required by the chosen system, then cure.

6. Build the nail

Apply the gel, creating a balanced shape and an apex suited to the length. The product must not come into contact with the skin or cuticles.

7. Cure

Observe the recommended curing time and position the hand correctly under the lamp. Thumbs may sometimes require separate curing to ensure they remain correctly positioned.

8. Trim the shape

After curing, file the shape and surface if necessary.
