Mylee 5 in 1 Builder Base Strengthening Gel 15ml (Clear)

This was my first time using builder gel, I've always been an acrylic girl from the age of 12, now I'm nearly 30 I thought I should start steering away from acrylics and to try and strengthen my natural nails. I was a little anxious as I've never used builder gel before, nor have I used gel colour but there's a first for everything! It did take me most of the day to master the technique but once I had done one hand, the 2nd hand didn't take too long.The colour is perfect if you want to paint over it, and also a perfect colour on its own if you prefer the natural look. The coverage is perfect, can't fault it at all. It dries under the lamp in 90s, which I found surprising as its a thick consistence. Once they're dried and you've wiped off the stickiness, I filed the tops ready to paint over with a gel colour. I did my nails at the start of August, and it's now the 17th September, I've had no chipping, no nail breakage at all, which I was really surprised by, I always got acrylics due to my health causing weak nails, even with my feed I still have the worst nails, but I was pleasantly surprised at how strong they are. The tips of my nails would always bend but I can whole heartedly say the tips of my nails don't budge, they're solid as a rock. Incredibly happy with the product, and I've attached images of when I first did my nails, and then 4 weeks of re growth with no chipping. This was my first time so please excuse the unprofessional painting I've done, practice makes perfect I guess. The main thing is, it's absolutely brilliant and I can't recommend it enough!!Just as a side note, I didn't use mylee gel polish, that was from beetles.

I was very pleased with it but it doesn't last as long as having it done in the beauty palour.

I love this builder gel but I don’t love this colour. It almost makes your nails look a bit dead. Not a huge fan of the translucency of it.However, the gel itself is great. If you prep your nails well enough beforehand it does last for ages!

This builder base gel works well if you’re looking to add a bit of strength to natural nails. It applies smoothly and cures well under a UV/LED lamp. The consistency is good – not too runny but still easy to work with.It seems to help nails feel stronger and gives a nice base for gel polish. The bottle size is fairly small, but a little goes a long way so it should last a while with normal use.Overall a good product if you want a strengthening base coat for gel manicures.

I’ve never used gel polish before as I’d been using dip powders which take a really long time to do so wanted to have a go with the gels if I’m short on time.Bought the builder gel as I have weak nails. I didn’t watch any videos just followed the instructions. Subsequently the nails are not as good as they could be, but I love the results.You can build up the layers so keep them nice and thin. Also this gel is self levelling, I found this out after I did the nails 🤣I’m very happy with this gel. This is the blush colour with the heart confetti top coat. Well worth buying.

According to their website their products no longer contain hema.However - since it’s impossible to know how old the stock we are buying from Amazon is, it’s possible that their old stock does contain hema since they use the term “no longer contains”.I’ve been doing my nails at home since gel nails were first a thing back in the mid 2000s & never had an issue before.Then around 6 weeks ago, I bought their base & top coat, builder gel & poly gel.Within 2 weeks I noticed a discolouration of one of my nails but didn’t pay much attention as I thought it was just a white mark like we all get.Then imagine my horror when I came to take my polish off for a new application to find all my nails had lifted off the nail bed.The only thing I’ve changed is to Mylee from another brand & this happened straight away it seems (albeit I didn’t realise in order to react quick enough before the damage was well & truly done).So, whilst I cannot prove this product is the cause, all the evidence is pointing that way.Therefore if you have any known issues with hema or you notice ANY discolouration of your nails when using this product, remove it immediately before you end up losing your nails like I have.I’m mortified as I had beautiful long nails that were mine & not extensions & now they are receding every day to the point I’m expecting them to fall off in the next week or so.It’s a shame as the product itself seemed fine but now I can’t risk using it again after this reaction.

Really like the 5 in 1 builder gel. This one gives a little colour to the nails too and I also use the clear 5 in 1 builder gel as a top coat. Gives strength to the nails allowing your nails to grow if they tend to split or are a bit weak.

Used this for years never any issues. Purchased two bottle recently, super pigmented and this one. Both bottle extremely thick and gloopy have to rest the bottle in boiling water to make it near usable. Never had retention issues until these new bottles, now peel off within a matter of days. Seems to dry very hard, was more flexible before so adhered to nail plate better. Seems to be reformulation? Won’t be purchasing again, very disappointed

Je suis vraiment ravie de ce gel builder ! Il est agréable à travailler et permet d’obtenir un joli renforcement avec un résultat propre et naturel. La tenue est très satisfaisante et le produit est parfait pour réaliser une belle manucure à la maison. Je suis conquise par le résultat et je le recommande sans hésiter !

Habe meine Nägel jetzt zum 2. Mal aufgefüllt und bin echt kein Profi.. alles top! Besonders hervorzuheben ist, dass außer Acryl bisher keinerlei Gele gehalten haben (auch nicht im Nagelstudio). Dieses hier hält super und ich benutzte nur Dehydrator + Primer dazu. Einfachste Naturnagelverstärkung meines Lebens (Ich trage 2 Schichten auf)! Wenn man sehr weiche und biegsame Nägel hat, sollte man besser 3 Schichten auftragen. Mir passiert es manchmal, dass mir die Seiten einreißen (Siehe 2. Bild).

Perfect beste tot nu toe

Es una pasada de producto. Yo compré a finales de julio el transparente para intentar hacerme las uñas en casa. La intención era fortalecerlas porque se me rompen fácilmente pero cuando me puse hacerlas, decidí aprovechar el producto y alargarlas. Pues a día de hoy y desde entonces llevo mis uñas que parecen hechas en un centro de uñas. Siempre he sido bastante mañosa para arreglarme las y me las hago con esmalte permanente. Pues ahora tengo unas uñas perfectas y siempre arregladas. Me retiro el esmalte permanente con una lima y después pulo. Una vez pulido le doy una capa del esmalte para seguir manteniendo el largo y a la vez cubrir la parte de uña que ha crecido. Es muy fácil de hacer. Lo que más cuesta es la primera vez que las haces porque si quieres extender la uña tienes que usar las pegatinas que venden. Eso es la parte más complicada. Una vez que consigues hacer la extensión ya solo tienes que mantenerla añadiendo capas según vaya creciendo tu uña. Se lima muy bien y le puedes dar la forma que más te guste. Necesitas 4 capas y curar cada capa durante dos minutos. Una vez hecha la uña ya puedes pintarla con permanente. Yo sigo los mismos pasos que con mis uñas naturales.Espero que os haya ayudado.
