Formulated to be cured under a UV lamp, it creates a rigid overlay or extension layer that resists everyday wear when applied correctly. It comes in a 16 ml (0.54 fl. oz.) bottle—sized for repeated at-home or salon use—and is intended for use with a separate gel base coat and a sealing top coat.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eHow do I prepare nails before applying GAOY Builder Gel?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePreparation is key to adhesion and longevity. Start with clean, oil-free nails, push back the cuticles, and gently buff the natural nail plate.

Skipping either step shortens wear time and increases risk of lifting or tacky residue.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBase coat creates a bond between the natural nail and builder gel.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eTop coat eliminates the sticky layer and increases shine and durability.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eUsing both ensures longer-lasting, salon-quality results.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eWho is this for: GAOY Builder Gel in 1729 Nude Jelly suits DIY nail artists and salon professionals who want a versatile builder gel for strengthening natural nails or sculpting extensions.
