Victoria Vynn Build Gel UV/LED Cold White French 12 15ml

Very good quality

Love it! Super strong, Easy to work with and great for adding strength to brittle nails! Make sure you have a some pure alcohol to hand to move it around when needed as it is very thick.

The first time I have got my own nails to last and not peel at all for TWO WEEKS, which is when I redo them due to growing out. Now the time I spend doing my manicure is worth it because it lasts. Buff the nail surface with a nail file, scrub with nail prep alcohol solution on a lint-free wipe, apply nail dehydrator then nail primer, and then apply this (without a base coat), then colour coats, then top coat. I use it to strengthen my nails and make the manicure last. Takes me two hours but that is the same amount of time as going to the nail tech (including driving) and a fraction of the price. It is quite difficult to spread but I hold my hand upside-down to get more-or-less the right shape (peak running down the middle) like my nail tech does and then file it a bit afterwards. I assume that the strength of the finished product means that it has to be a bit difficult to work with and I am more than happy to deal with that.

My favourite gel ! Would never change it

Ok , it self levels , it’s strong ,it’s thick but moves well . Usually use Base one but last batch was terrible didn’t last a week after curing . It does hurt when curing more than I’ve ever experienced (been doing own nails (gel) 10 yrs . Might try the mouse gel next time…. Wish professionals could advise best gel to use to build .

My favorite

Very happy with the purchase!

This was only my second time using builder gel and the product seemed really thick when picking up a ball, but once I placed it down it was really easy to manipulate it and it self levels quickly too (so definitely have to turn the finger upside down before curing), it files super easy too, didn't even need an e-file to remove some bulkier areas, if you're experienced probably wouldn't even need to file after curing if you always nail the shape just right - you can see in pic nr 3 how smooth and shiny it is right after curing. I also thought it would be a brighter pink but was pleasantly surprised to end up with a very pale pink - perfect for cool neutral skin undertones, would definitely recommend and will repurchase! The only downside is it seems very prone to air bubbles - that might just be my inexperience at fault, but they are so tiny and unnoticeable that it doesn't really bother me
