Wow I wore acrylics for almost 40 years. I got first set for my wedding and wore them constantly for years until the pandemic. I wore drug store type glue on nails during shut down and then just got tired and let my natural nails grow. Even after years my natural nails still do not look great. After watching this intelligent well spoken young lady I want to try doing this type of nail product. She gave such great instructions and tips. If my nails can look half as great as hers I will be happy.

I've been watching famous manicurists and nail influencers about how to do this, and none of them were as comprehensive as you. This video was perfect for my style of learning. Thank you 🙏🏻 Edit the color you picked was beautiful 👌🏻💗

Hi Maddy, Thank you for this tutorial. I have just bought myself BlueSky Builder Gel in Mauve Mist. It's in a bottle and then I realised I have no idea on how to use it. Your tutorial has given great instructions, I would have probably flooded my nail, by using it like Nail Polish, so thank you for that. Love the idea of the 'Upside down' method, great idea. 👍🏻

Amazing! Great video. Just bought some builder gel and came searching to learn how to use it and now I know. LoL l was impressed when you said under 2 hours cuz it takes me at least almost 2 movies to do my nails haha

[loramisaude]

it is the better explanation of how to use this product that I've seen; in English and Spanish. Thanks! Gracias!

[BlueEyedDemonWoman]

Thanks so much for the great video... I have a hard time getting products to not peel off. Your video was easy to follow.

I've watched a lot of videos on builder gel, this is the best explained one. Thank you 🥰

This is awesome! Thanks for sharing. I first learned about rubber base gel nails at the salon when I tried to do dip powder, and they suggested I try rubber base gel instead. I love them, but it is quite pricy, especially if you get nail art done. I didn't realize that getting the materials yourself could be pretty affordable. I initially thought that you needed special colored gel polishes to use with the builder gel, but you showed me exactly what's needed, so thank you for that!
