Modelones Builder Gel with Top Coat and Base Coat Set, 3Pcs No Wipe Base and Top Coat Gel Nail Polish with Gel Builder for Nails, Hard Gel Nail Strengthener Extension Builder Gel in a Bottle

FINALLY a product that gives you an EASY way to have Glorious Gorgeous Natural Nails. NO glue, no ill fitting tips that never seem to glue on straight or lay flat with full contact to your natural nail and no high-priced salons...they don't look fake because they aren't fake,, they are YOUR NATURAL nails given the strength they need to stay strong and beautiful. You gotta love it!!! I have thin brittle nails and a difficult time keeping my nails longer than a quarter inch without breaking, chipping or having them split. Since applying this product my nails are growing and feeling strong and extend past my fingertips. I can file or clip them shorter as they grow if they become too long and interfere with my crafting or typing. I have always wanted my natural nails to be long and strong and beautiful. The glue-on tips always left my natural nails soft and thin and tender. Highly recommend for those who have given up on salon and/or DIY glue-on nails. I Here's what worked for me: My application method consisted of filing my nails, pushing the cuticles back and cleaning with alcohol. Then I applied each coat (base, builder, top coat) continuing to brush the excess off and wiping the excess on the brush against the bottle top. I made sure my nail tips were fully covered without any dry spots. I then cured until they were no longer tacky to touch. I then let rest for 15-30 minutes to cool and set completely. The whole process took me about two hours and now I have GORGEOUS NATURAL nails. More time than the instructions tell you but way worth it!!! I will say the curing time under the lamp was way off, at least with the lamp I used which was brand new and not one of those dinky ones, taking several 90-second rounds to achieve a non-tacky feel to the touch. I work with resin making jewelry and stuff so I am familiar with the product/lamp process and will say it is important to make sure each level or coat is fully cured before applying the next coat. The instructions don't emphasize this and they don't tell you to wait 10 -15 minutes or longer for each coat to cool and set before applying the next. In my experience, each coat should be cured to a non-tacky touch to be fully cured. Hope that helps.

Purchased several kits from Modelones and have not found a bad kit yet. They are awesome. for the great price you get full size bottles, not the mini tester bottles the other brands have. The color is buildable so its customized to what i want. Easy drying under a lamp and long lasting. Most of all they don't peel up like other brands do. love it.

I purchased the Modelones Builder Nail Gel Kit with Gel Top Coat (3pcs) for doing at-home manicures, and it’s been amazing. The clear builder gel is great for thickening, strengthening, and building an apex, giving my nails a professional look. The gel applies smoothly and levels nicely, making it easy to work with even if you’re not a professional. The top coat leaves a beautiful, glossy finish that lasts without chipping and the fact of how fast it dries without a sticky film. Meanwhile my nails are looking fabulous they are also fully protected and growing stronger and stronger each day. Overall, this is a great builder gel set for anyone doing nails at home. It delivers salon-quality results while saving time and money. Highly recommend!

Removing a star as the builder gel is alot funnier than I had expected and described making it much harder to gather the bead required to actually build the nail apex and acjeive an even application. The consistency also makes it much easier to flood the nail bed. The base and top coats are great quality and the builder gel is a true clear as described in the listing. The size was accurate and the bottles and brushes are great quality. Due to the consistency I find that my nails do not last as long as with other builder gel and lift or Crack easier which requires more filling, and shaping and evening the finish is more time consuming.

First time using builder gel so I went with a less expensive brand. This is thick but not super thick will run into side walls if you use too much. I have had it on my natural nails for over a week and no weird reaction. Cured great at the low heat 99s mode on my lamp. I would use a different brush than the bottle brush next time. I did use forms to build out two of my natural nails and it worked really well they have held up nice.
