Love sculpting with solid gel and this made my life so much easier! This was my first attempt at doing a snake using the solid gel. You can mix any color of gel into this and make whatever color! The versatility of this product is limitless.

I used this instead of acrylic powder for my nails and it lasted over 2 weeks and didn’t damage my nails the way acrylic does

This package would NOT open at all. I had to cut and physically pry it open and took a very long time. do not buy unless you want to deal with an insanely difficult product that’s mid.

This is the first time I've used a builder gel for my nails. I do my nails at home. I decided to use it to create nail extensions instead of my usual tube of polygel. This product claims not to stick to your hands and I found that to be partially true. If you are quick and keep the gel moving, it doesn't seem to stick. But if you hold the gel for more than a few seconds, your body heat will start to "melt" it a bit and it does get sticky. I found that using stainless steel spatulas and modeling tools was the perfect way to manage this gel, because the gel didn't stick to those tools - probably because metal tends to be cooler than hands.This gel has a fairly strong smell. It's not a horrible smell, just a chemical odor.When using my nail drill to shape my nails, the hardened gel did not powder. Instead if came off in small "chunks," and pieces wanted to stick to my nails as if there were fiber holding the hardened gel together (there is no fiber). That was odd.Overall, I will use this gel until it's gone. Still, I am more comfortable with the polygel tubes that I am already used to using - but that's just me.I recommend trying this product - it does do what it was made to do. If you are more skilled than I am, You will probably love it.

I typically used tea bag with super glue to fix broken nails but it only lasted a couple of days and I have to keep repeating the process over again.I decided to give this product a try. I still use tea bag + super glue and apply this strengthening gel on top. Use a metal tool to scrape a small amount. Then, with your fingers, just make a ball. You do need a nail mould to make sure the surface will be smooth. Cure it with nail mould under LED lamp for one minute and it completely harden. Remove the mould and clip or file excess away. My nail looks perfect on the first try without any practice. From the picture, you can see chipped nail on one side, my nail was broken on both sides.I like that the gel is non-sticky. It’s like play dough and you can shape it pretty easily.
