BUILDER GLASS TOUCH

Translucent Builder Gel (Stained Glass Effect) – HEMA & TPO Free, 15g This premium builder gel stands out through its spectacular stained glass effect (Jelly / Glass Nails). With a semi-self-leveling formula, extremely resistant and easy to file, it is the ideal product for the apex technique, deep encapsulations, and bold designs. Being 100% HEMA Free and TPO Free, it guarantees a safe working environment. Attention: Due to the translucent formula, the color in the jar is concentrated and differs visually from the shade obtained after application and polymerization! Many clients get scared when they see the dark shade in the jar. The gel is formulated to be semi-transparent. Once brushed onto the nail, the pigment disperses, revealing the real stained glass effect. (Note: The official color chart is made on a white background to show the pure shade). Soft gel inside (Failed polymerization): Eliminates human error by clearly specifying the need for a full-sized (professional) UV/LED lamp. "Mini" type lamps (flashlights/single-finger lamps) do not have the power to penetrate through the colored translucent gel structure, thus preventing the material from lifting. Flat designs, without depth: The stained glass tint is essential for the encapsulation technique. Applied over glitter, sequins, or dried flowers, it creates a three-dimensional (3D) aquarium effect, impossible to obtain with classic cover/opaque gels. Characteristics: Semi-Self-Leveling Texture: Offers the perfect balance between control (does not flow immediately into the folds) and leveling, making apex formation easier. Easy to File: Although the polymerized structure is hard and shock-resistant, the material files softly under the electric file, shortening the finishing time. HEMA & TPO Free Safety: Eliminates the most severe allergens, being ideal for technicians with contact dermatitis and for clients with sensitive skin. Instructions for Use (Encapsulation and Apex Technique) For safe results and vibrant colors, follow this protocol: Preparation and Adhesion: Apply the preparation solutions and a thin layer of transparent base (Rubber Base) for adhesion. Construction / Encapsulation: Apply the translucent gel for apex formation or use it to cover (encapsulate) nail art elements. Polymerization (Critical Step): Use exclusively a professional lamp (full size). Insert the hand and do not interrupt the process. LED Lamp: 90 seconds UV Lamp: 90 - 120 seconds Finishing: Degrease the dispersion layer and file the desired architecture. Crucial Technical Advice (Color and Equipment): Do not evaluate the color of the gel by looking at it in the jar (where the large amount of material absorbs light and looks very dark/opaque). The real jelly color will only be visible in a thin, polymerized layer. Also, avoid small lamps (mini-LED); these will only dry the surface, leaving the interior of the apex raw, which invariably leads to severe lifting and risk of allergies. Technical Specifications: Product Type: Translucent Builder Gel (Jelly/Glass) Volume: 15 grams Viscosity: Semi-Self-Leveling Polymerization: Exclusively professional lamp (LED 90s / UV 120s) Safety: HEMA Free & TPO Free Ingredients (INCI): Acrylates Copolymer, Hydroxypropyl Methacrylate, Ethyl Trimethylbenzoyl Phenylphosphinate, Silicon Dioxide. May contain (Pigments): CI 45380, CI 15850, CI 77491, CI 15985, CI 77492, CI 77007, CI 77510, CI 77742, CI 77499, CI 77891, CI 77019 MICA. The use of the modern photoinitiator Ethyl Trimethylbenzoyl Phenylphosphinate ensures correct polymerization of translucent pigments, successfully replacing TPO. The presence of Silicon Dioxide perfectly controls the semi-self-leveling viscosity, preventing the gel from flowing rapidly.
