Product Description

Builder Gel (also called Builder Base or BIAB) is used to extend your natural nails, build a nail or use as an overlay on your nail for strength and durability. 

We are phasing out this Regular Easy Flow formula.  Once gone, it will not be restocked.

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.

This particular Builder Gel is extremely thick.  Don't be intimidated when you get your bottle.  It's easier to work with than you think. If you have difficulty with the thickness, warm the bottle before use in a bowl of hot water.  This formula was our original Builder Gel formula, which came in a pot, but due to leaking, we had the same formula put into bottles.

Gel liquids need to be kept in a cool, dark place. Exposure to light will harden the gel.

Returns/Refunds cannot be honored for any dip liquids, gel liquids or powders.

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. Additionally, make sure you cure your gel products according to the directions on your bottles each time. * This is super important! Over-curing or under-curing can cause issues and lead to gel allergies.

*IMPORTANT: Make sure to cure all gels the appropriate amount of time (according to the instructions on your bottle).  All gels are not created equal and have different curing times.  Additionally, strictly UV lamps cure differently than LED and UV/LED lamps.  Make sure your lamp is a minimum of 48 watts.  Lamps also do not last forever, if you notice your gel isn't curing correctly or it stays soft, get a new lamp. I suggest replacing after about 2 years if you use it often.  Extending the curing time will help until you purchase a new lamp in a pinch.

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.
