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)

This is my second bottle and it’s a game changer! As soon as my nails reach a certain length I use the Orly Fx as a structure overlay for my nails. It’s super beginner friendly and crystal clear! The gel is the perfect viscosity which self levels on its own and following the instructions of BIAB never floods my cuticle or side walls or leaves bubbles. Paired with the correct primer I get absolutely no lifting!! I do have to say due to my primer sometimes it takes a bit longer to soak off. Perfect for beginners! Like any other gel product please use caution and avoid your skin like it’s lava!!! I’ve NEVER experienced heat spikes with this builder gel. Have always come back to it and always will. Update: wanted to provide an update on how long my natural nails have grown using this BIAB!!! Longest ever and every time I remove the builder gel my nails are strong and healthy!!!

I’ve tried so many gel brands, but ORLY stands out as the absolute best. It’s by far the hardest gel I’ve found—my nails don’t bend, lift, or break. The self-leveling formula is top-notch, making application smooth and effortless. It gives a professional-quality finish every single time. Highly recommend for anyone looking for strong, durable, salon-level results at home!

This is so easy to work with. Perfect consistency

Tools used: -Sally Hansen Instant Cuticle Remover -Cuticle pusher -Cuticle nippers -Drying nail primer -emery board and e-file -SunUV lamp -Isopropyl Alcohol/cotton pads The situation: To start, my nails are terrible. I have incredibly thin, ridged nails that break the moment they reach past the tips of my fingers and are prone to splitting. I also work in a shipping & receiving position so my hands endure a lot of abuse and a ton of handwashing. In short, they’re just too damaged for gel/acrylic sets and normal polish (even gel) will chip within a few days due to the flexibility of my nails and don’t protect them from breaking. The goal: To help grow my sad nails and protect them while I work on improving the underlying issues of vitamin deficiencies. The Method and First Impressions: I began with a few rounds of cuticle removal as mine was pretty overgrown and untended. Any leftover cuticle will cause peeling! And then I just went for it - thin first layer, 30 sec cure, and wipe off sticky residue with alcohol. Second layer was supposed to be my final layer to help build that apex (and to fill any funny lumps/gaps), but it was a small learning experience so a few nails got a third layer. To build the apex I suggest putting a small glob in the center, wipe your brush of excess and then just push it around until it looks smooth, focusing on keep as much in the center as possible. This stuff is very easy to move around but isn’t so thin that it’s hard to manage. Tease the gel around until it looks okay and PRO TIP - hold your hand upside down to help the gel naturally gravitate to where the apex should be. Then cure again! I didn’t apply color as my job is finicky about nail colors but even clear it is fantastic! The ridges on my nails are pretty severe so you can definitely see them through the clear gel but not nearly as badly. I’ll update my review later on to include how well they survive the wear and tear of my job but for now I couldn’t be more impressed. Aside from my shaky hands and lack of professional experience, my nails look absolutely fantastic.

This product is good and it did help me grow my natural nails, but it holds up for about a week if you go on vacation and swim a lot. It’s a bit pricy so until my bottle runs out I’ll try to find a cheaper equivalent.

Great product! Very easy and user friendly for a first timer! Used about 3 coats and that worked! Will continue to diy using this product!

Great product works and is professional quality.

I previously bought this BIAB in the shade cool pink and I LOVED it. It was amazing. So good. Self levelled, it was thick, lasted forever on the nails, super durable. Just overall 10/10. So I decided to purchase clear and it’s not that great. It lifts after 1 day (it’s not my prep bc I’m doing the same prep as the other), it’s runny and hard to work with. I’m disappointed bc it’s pretty expensive.

Great product that is worth the money. It was easy to use and allowed me to get a salon look whilst also adding strength to my nails prior to applying gel colour. I haven’t used to extend any nails so can’t comment on the ease of this. If I were to extend I would purchase the stickers which guide you rather than applying on its own.

I’ve used this since March and absolutely love it ! I have had one nail break in the 10 months I’ve used it and took a month break from them in between and my nails were still really healthy underneath unlike acrylics or gels from the salon. Filling my nails every 2-3 weeks this bottle has lasted me since March is unbelievable And definitely worth it

Gel assez liquide et ne tient pas longtemps.

Es un buen producto

Unfortunately this builder gel didn’t last at all chipped the next day which is disappointing don’t buy it
