High-Viscosity Sculpting Gel • UV/LED Curable • Structural Nail Enhancement
Product Overview
The Nail Builder Extension Gel is a professional-grade hard builder gel system engineered for nail extensions, overlays, apex construction, and reinforcement. Its high-viscosity, self-leveling polymer matrix provides superior control during application while maintaining structural strength after curing.
Designed for both salon professionals and advanced users, this gel enables precise sculpting with minimal sagging, making it ideal for natural nail reinforcement and tip-based or form-based extensions.
