Orly Builder In A Bottle Soak-Off Sculpting Gel For Quick Nail Extension, Repair And Strengthening | Long-Lasting Builder Gel With Brush-On Application | Salon-Quality Nails At Home (18ml)

I only write reviews typically if something is exceptionally good or bad. This is definitely a winner! Absolutely love it. I purchased the clear and use regular nail polish so I can change colors without removing. So easy to apply and self level and have had no lifting at all. I do use a dehydrating primer before applying. I can’t speak for removal as I’ve only filled and that was super easy. I simply just applied a fresh layer. LOVE this!! My nails are finally growing long, look natural and are very strong with this product on them.

LOVE this product. I had a crack on the side of my big toe nail. I didnt want it to break and be super short. One good coat of this on my nail and it saved it and I believe will last for weeks.. It was very easy to use.

I absolutely love the builder gel. Easy to use and my nails have grown and much stronger.

Great product. Easy to apply and long lasting.

Unsolicited old person nail tech advice, after using this for a year under all sorts of circumstances-*if you're hard on your nails, keep moving. This is not solvent resistant, and softer than acrylic or hard gel*- great for a strengthening base (especially after coming out of acrylics or growing out damage)- great for repairs with or without silk/fiberglass- AMAZING for attaching/sealing sequins, gems, studs, flowers, etc.- suitable emergency fill material if you can't get in to your tech- super nice for a quick set of **temporary** SHORT hard gel extensions using forms- NOT GREAT AT ALL with tips or any length over 0.5cm/¼". If you want bad B nails, go with acrylic. This is not the product for you.- I wouldn't recommend doing more than one fill with this. It's too soft to offer reliable strength to long term sets. Use a thicker builder gel instead, if that's your goal.

Love this product! Very good hardener for your nails.

I absolutely love this product! Keeps my nails super strong otherwise they would break! It’s not too difficult to use I think. My recommendation would be to do one nail at a time or it runs off the sides of the nail so cure one at a time.

First time builder user. I've been doing at home gel for about 4 months now and just stumbled upon builder. Which sounded great for people like me who have very thin brittle nails from an adolescence of biting nails.This is a very thick gel compared to polish. I really like the short brush tip, makes controlling the product very user friendly.Definitely watch a lot of how to videos prior to diving in. Creating the apex was a bit of a learning curve for me. Absolutely turn your finger upside down so won't settle in your cuticles prior to cure. I have to do the builder one finger at a time, otherwise it settles in my cuticles no matter how thin the layer is.I put it on my thumb just to test out how I liked it and was going to take it off but couldn't actually get it off using the gel remover that I use. Ended up doing all my nails and while time consuming, it was great. My nails are Rick solid, didn't have to worry about any tearing. So I was very disappointed when it separated from my nail about a week later. This was only my first run though, so could have been user error. I did use a dehydrator and a base prior to the builder after meticulous cuticle prep.The biggest negative here is the 🔥🔥🔥 burning! As said before, I've been doing at home gels for a while now. So I know to expect possible burning sensation but holy h*ll. This stuff burns and stings so badly I had to remove my finger from the light 2 x before it was fully cured. I'm giving it a second go now after letting my nails breathe gel free for about 48 hrs. Still burns very badly.
