Review: My favorite tried and true! - I am a licensed nail tech. This brand is always reliable. This set is done with the sheer pink on my natural nails. It's a semi hard builder which I can soak off easily, but gives strength like hard gel. I use on myself and clients with natural nails and extensions. There is no lifting and no damage even after my nails were 1 month overgrown without a refill. Second set was on my client's natural nails which she grew from nubs to get to that length with this ibd gel. Proper nail prep is key. The negative reviews are from people inexperienced with gels. PLEASE EDUCATE YOURSELVES BEFORE USING GELS AND GIVING YOURSELF DAMAGE AND ALLERGIES!!! This self levels pretty quick so you also have to be quick. Do one at a time and flash cure a few seconds to hold it in place. Apex building is easy. I love the translucent jelly pink color. You can see the sheerness in the square nail photo. It gives a flush of color to the nailbed. It's like your nails, but better kind of color. A no makeup "makeup" for your nails! Also, if it isn't curing properly then it means A.) Your lamp isn't atleast 48 watts. B.) Your coat is too thick especially if it's a more opaque color such as the white one. OR C.) You received a defective product. All of which can be true. I fully stand by this gel though. I've used ibd brand as a diy-er when I was a young aspiring tech and now as a licensed nail tech. *Last photo are of my natural nails with just the builder on. Even shiny without topcoat. Builds nice Apex for strength and durability. If you do it right there is no need for much filing on top! I did none at all. The sheer pink is gorgeous.
Review: User friendly - This builder gel is incredibly user-friendly, which is one of the biggest reasons I like it. Whether you’re a beginner or you’ve been doing nails for years, it’s easy to control and doesn’t seem to have a personal vendetta against you like some builder gels do. 😂 It has a nice consistency, self-levels well, and stays where you put it long enough to shape the nail without feeling rushed. Once cured, the nails feel strong but still lightweight, and the finished results look smooth and professional. I also love the brush-in-bottle design because it keeps the application simple and much less messy than working from a pot. I’ve used builder gels that had me questioning my career choices halfway through one nail. This one? It actually cooperates. 😂 It behaves, builds beautiful nails, and lets me look like I know exactly what I’m doing. Definitely one I’ll keep reaching for!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Natural nails need a little help? GET THIS!!
*by B***P on July 3, 2026*

I’m not usually one to write reviews on things, especially nail products because they never really WOW me enough to do so. But THIS? This is worth as many reviews as I could give. I really started my natural nail journey this year after years of doing my own gel nails and this product is just incredible for that, from beginning to end. At first I was weary because of how thick the product was but the way it applies and self-levels makes it SO easy to use. I don’t extend my nails or anything so I can’t speak on that, but I use this as a BIAB or a builder gel to keep my natural nails strong. The prep work IS important, I dehydrated my nails, filed them to shape, and buffed the shine off. I used a gel base coat (I’m not sure if this is really necessary but I did it anyway). I cured each layer of this product for 120 seconds in my LED lamp (I prefer to over-cure to be precautious) and then I finally applied a gel top coat. The cover pink is a pretty milky pink color, but I was able to paint over it with a regular polish color after all the curing was done! My nails feel so smooth, glossy, and strong! I’ll definitely be ordering other colors of this soon!
