How to Use the Gel System

Apply base gel thinly and cure, then add builder gel only where extra strength or leveling is needed. Cure colour layers, then finish with either top coat: the matte no-wipe coat for a velvet look, or the gloss coat for a mirror shine. Keep every layer thin and cap the free edge so the manicure resists peeling.

Which Finish Should You Choose

Offer matte for fashion-forward clients and gloss for classic wear. The two finishes let you combine textures on one hand, such as gloss French tips over a matte body, which is a popular salon upsell.

FAQ

How long do I cure each layer of this set?

Thin base, colour and top layers generally cure in around 30-60 seconds under a standard UV/LED lamp. Follow the curing time for your specific lamp and check that thicker builder spots harden completely.

Will this set make my gel manicure last longer?

Yes – the base gel improves adhesion and the top coat seals the colour, which together add a week or more of wear compared with skipping either layer.

How do I remove the gel system safely?

Buff the top coat, then soak with acetone wraps until each layer lifts. Never peel or pry, and follow the steps in our removal guide to keep the natural nail healthy.

Can I use this system with any colour gel?

Yes – it works with the whole gel treatments colour range. For building longer sets, our poly gel vs press-on nails article helps you decide which extension method fits your clients.
