Builder Gel, Southend
Builder gel is a type of nail enhancement used to create strong, durable, and natural-looking nails. It is a thicker gel formula applied to the natural nails to add strength and shape. Unlike regular gel polish, builder gel can be used to build an apex for added strength, and correct imperfections.

How long does builder gel last?
Builder gel typically lasts 3 to 4 weeks before needing infills or removal, depending on nail growth and daily activities. Proper application and aftercare, such as avoiding excessive exposure to water and using cuticle oil, can help extend its longevity.
Will builder gel damage my nails?
Builder gel does not damage your nails when applied and removed correctly. However, improper removal—such as forcefully peeling or over-filing—can weaken the natural nail
