Beetles Builder Gel for Nails, 2 Pcs 8 in 1 Clear Building Gel

This nail kit was exactly what I was looking for- something easy to use that offers protection for my nails so they can grow. The UV light came with a good charge and was ready to use. I’ve done at home gel/shellac kits and dip powder with and without nail tips. This is by far the easiest system to use! The pictures are after a few days of wear after doing heavy dishes, yard work, and putting furniture together. They have held help amazingly well and have had no chips or breakage. I found doing one hand completely works better than doing each step on both hands. I did layer of base coat and cured for 90 seconds and then did the next nail. The UV light could cure 2 nails at once, I could not tell a difference in the nails I cured solo or the ones I did together. I’m not sure if curing for 60 or 90 seconds made much difference but it felt less sticky and more tacky when doing 90 seconds. I did 2 thin layers of the color (jelly nude) and cured for 90 seconds. It’s very sheer which was what I wanted and really evened out my nails and looks so pretty and subtle. Then applied top coat and cured for 90 seconds and the nails were completely cured and ready to go! After 60 seconds, the top coat was still a little tacky so I def recommend 90 seconds. The UV light indicator has 3 levels and I had a full battery when starting my nails and after I finished, the battery level was at 2 out of 3.

Got this set mostly because I loved the colors but also because I need to replace my prep products and my base/top coat. It was on sale when I got it and I’m so glad I did. My nails have been on for 3 weeks (with tips) and I have had no lifting nor have I had any fall off. I’m extremely rough with my hands and wash them constantly as well so I always end up breaking them or having lifting. I love the short brushes of the prep products as I find it makes it easier to apply without putting too much on. The builder gel itself nicely self levels after a few seconds and the colors are gorgeous. The base coat works as expected and the top coat offers a brilliant shine. This definitely was a great purchase and I’ll be buying more beetles gel products in the future as I switched from dips.

GREAT PRODUCT!! I have been trying different nail products to find one that will stay on as I am going on a 15 day cruise and don't want to have to keep fussing with doing my nails. Used this with a set of nails I also got from Amazon and they haven't chipped off color at all. They have been on for 6 days so far and still holding the color as if i had just done them. Now I am not sitting around protecting my hands so I don't hit them and cause the polish to chip or them to just pop off my finger. I have been building a greenhouse and working in the garden with no gloves. Polish still perfect, none have popped off. I did use a top coat (also from Beetles) as usual on top of the pink gel polish. Will definitely purchase more Beetles gel polish in the future.

I absolutely love this kit and the little lamp wand that it comes with. My best friend recommended this to me since my nails tend to be really fragile. It has def helped me a lot when I want to work on growing out my natural nail and hasn’t done any damage. It’s really easy to figure out and I love the UV curing since it dries quicker and I am impatient. Over all great value for your money just be careful about how much you apply since it can get thick quickly if your not paying attention and putting to much on.

Pros: This is a really thick builder gel and is great for shaping, the product doesn’t level out before you can cure it. The color is pretty & buildable. Cons: not as long-lasting as other builder gels :-( they popped off in a couple days the first time I used it, but I’ve been using a good rubber base/thin layer of a different builder gel before shaping with this one, and that works really well. That being said, I’m still glad I bought it & it excels in areas that other builder gels don’t!

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5-Star Review I absolutely love the Beetles HEMA-Free Builder Gel in Clear Breeze! It’s perfect for strengthening, apex building, and adding thickness to natural nails. The 7-in-1 formula is easy to work with, self-levels beautifully, and gives a professional salon-quality finish right at home. As someone with sensitive nails, I really appreciate that it’s HEMA-free and gentle on my skin. It works great for extensions and is beginner-friendly, making DIY manicures so much easier. The clear finish is crystal clear and long-lasting, with excellent durability and shine. Highly recommend this product to anyone looking for a reliable builder gel for strong, beautiful nails! 💅✨

These builders are perfect. The consistency is great. Not to thick but not to thin either. Seems to bond well to the nail and holds up well. Cure time is around 90 secs in lamp. Will be purchasing again

Full disclosure, I have paper thin flexible nails. That being said, this product is easy to use, looks great, great quality for the price, dry and cures under lamp I already had for gel nails. As far as durability I can’t say exactly because when my paper thin nails flex so easily and the builder gel loosens and eventually flakes off. ☹️ If I am super careful to use gloves when cleaning or washing dishes it does last longer. I do think this product is worth it. My nails are a real problem and this wasn’t the solution unfortunately for me.

J'ai reçu ce parfait. Petit gel, je ne fais aucune allergie au niveau de mes ongles et le petit pinceau fournit avec est une petite merveille

Lo compré porque tenía un par de uñas rotas y me daba flojera el polygel o ponerme softgel jajaja. Y funcionó muy bien. En el empaque también menciona que es HEMA free, lo cual también me era importante.

Love this builder gel! The consistency is great for me, but when doing other peoples nails, I find that it can run a little bit, so would like it to be a little thicker. It's strong when set and my nails can last 3+ weeks. Drying time under the lamp is 60 seconds. The price is excellent compared to other brands.

Does the job exactly as needed. This builder gel is a little bit more "runny" than the brand I was using previously but I think I actually prefer it. I've also found that it seems to last longer. I have it as the base on both hands right now, one hand with extensions, some nails have begun to lifting slightly but that also could be my fault. But they've been on pretty good for 2 weeks. :)

works well, applies in thinner layer than other thick gels which is nice to manage. Good to prevent any nail chips and keep nails long and strong.
