Ocho Nails builder gel is designed for even the most demanding nail technicians. Its thick, stable formula, resistant to temperature fluctuations, makes it ideal for extending the nail plate and building a strong nail structure – under any conditions. This guarantees maximum stability, complete control, and reliable results with every styling.
Thanks to its thixotropic properties , also known as fluid memory, Ocho Nails builder gel doesn't flow to the cuticle . This allows for extremely precise application and even distribution. The gel effectively camouflages nail plate imperfections and corrects their shape , making it suitable for use without a color coat—a base and top coat are all you need. The natural, opaque shades make this builder gel perfect for those who love subtle yet durable nail styling. It also performs exceptionally well with structural and architectural designs .
Please note: This builder gel requires the use of Ocho Nails Bonding Base for Gel for optimal adhesion.
Ocho Nails building gel is available in 5 colors:
• WHITE – classic, intense white, ideal for French manicure, nail art and a precise finish;
• PINK – very light, cool pink shade, perfect as a delicate manicure or as a base for expressive designs;
• LIGHT PINK – medium raspberry pink, ideal for baby boomer, French styling and everyday use;
• BEIGE – warm peachy pink shade, perfect for natural looks and subtly accentuating the nail plate;
• COVER – medium warm pink shade with beige undertone, ideal as a base for an elegant and well-groomed everyday manicure.
Instructions for use – extending nails correctly with building gel:
1. Before treatment, disinfect your hands and those of the client and prepare the work area carefully.
2. Prepare the nail plate: File the nail into shape, gently buff with a buffer, remove dust, and degrease with a cleaner or dehydrator. If necessary, an acid-free primer (e.g., Ocho Nails Vitamins) can be used to improve adhesion.
3. Apply a thin layer of bonding base and massage it into the nail plate to fill in any micro-irregularities. Cure in the lamp for the recommended time.
4. Depending on the chosen extension method:
◦ Forms: Place a properly fitting form and ensure a precise fit. Apply a layer of builder gel to create the nail structure and cure it in the lamp. Remove the dispersion layer, file the shape, and apply a second smoothing layer with a fine brush. Cure for at least 60 seconds.
Dual forms: Fill the dual form with builder gel, gently place it on the nail plate, and cure for at least 60 seconds. Then remove the form and file the nail into shape.
5. File the nails to the desired final shape and smooth the surface with a polishing block.
6. Apply a top coat and cure it in the lamp. For extra cuticle care, you can apply nail oil.
