NOTE: Use caution when curing gel liquids in your lamp. Applying gel too thick can cause heat spikes, thereby causing a burning sensation on your nails. Also, wipe away any gel from your skin before curing in a lamp to avoid burning your skin.
We carry the following Builder Gel Liquids:
* Easy Flow regular soak off Builder Gel in a Bottle
* Hema Free soak off Builder Gels in a bottle in Clear, Pink, Nude, Mint Frost, Pink Shimmer and Midnight Shimmer.
Hema Free Glow in the Dark Clear (Pink Glow) and Clear (Blue Glow). NOTE: The Pink Glow is considered "clear" but due to the amount of glow pigment added to the formula, it may appear cloudy or milky on your nails. The Pink Glow (both in this Builder gel and glow pigment) is a much softer milder glow and to make it glow to the capacity it does, more pigment is added to the formula.

SHIPPING ISSUES:
USPS/UPS have procedures for claims that we follow. For packages that are stuck in transit, a missing mail search must be conducted before filing a claim. Additionally, claims can only be filed after a certain amount of time has passed. All rules/timelines for USPS and UPS can be found on their respective websites. Please reach out to us if your package is stuck, missing or damaged so that the appropriate action can be taken.

PRIORITY SHIPPING NOTE: Selecting Priority Shipping ensures that your package is sent Priority Mail. It does not give priority status to your order in the order queue.
PACKAGE INSURANCE: All packages are insured via USPS or UPS. However, this means that the proper protocols with each shipping carrier must be followed before a claim is approved. The first step will be for the customer to file for a missing mail piece (USPS packages). That can be done right from the USPS website. After your missing mail request is sent and should the package not be found (you must send me proof of your inquiry as well as proof that USPS has responded to you via email), then I will remit a claim on your behalf. Please note that claims will be filed for missing mail after all package collection efforts are exhausted. USPS (ground advantage) is 15 days after mailing. USPS (priority mail) is 7 days after mailing. UPS is 8-10 business days after mailing. No claims can be filed until after these time frames. NO EXCEPTIONS. Claims for items damaged in transit will be filed immediately AFTER the customer provides photographs of the items damaged, packaging and mailing label. Without photos, the carrier will not even consider replacement. KEEP the package and all contents in case the carrier demands to see them. USPS will ask you to bring any damaged items to them in person.
