Instructions

1. Prep the Nails:

Push back the cuticles.
Buff the nail by using the Tones Nail Buffer 100/180 to remove any shine.
Wipe the nail with Sanitizing Solution or alcohol to eliminate any oil or dust.

2. Apply Nail Forms or Dual Forms:

When using Tones Nail Forms, Position the form under the free edge of the natural nail and adjust it to the desired shape.
When using Tones Dual Forms – Select the correct size to fit each nail properly

3. Apply a Dehydrator and Primer:

Use the Tones Nail Prep Dehydrator to remove any excess oils.
Apply Tones Ultrabond Primer to improve adhesion for the Builder Gel.

4. Apply Base Coat

Apply a thin layer of Tones Gel Polish Base Coat and cure under a lamp for 30 – 60 seconds.

5. Apply Builder Gel:

With Tones Nail Forms –
Use our Tones Twin Head Nail Art Gel Brush #4 Flat & Spatula (or any of our other Tones high-quality nail brushes) and scoop a small amount of Builder Gel and place it near the cuticle on the natural nail.
Spread the gel evenly across the natural nail and onto the form, creating the desired length and shape.

With Tones Dual Forms –
Use our Tones Twin Head Nail Art Gel Brush #4 Flat & Spatula or any other Tones high-quality nail
brushes to scoop a small bead of Builder Gel and place it on the underside of the dual form.
Gently press the Dual Form onto your nail, ensuring the gel spreads evenly without leaking over the sides. If excess gel seeps out, clean the edges with a brush.

6. Cure Builder Gel:

Once you are happy with the shape, cure the Builder Gel under the lamp for 60 seconds.
After curing, gently remove the Dual Form or Nail Form.

7. Shape and File:

File the edges and shape the nail as desired.
Buff the surface with the Tones Nail Buffer – 100/180 to ensure smoothness.

8. Finish with Top Coat:

Frequently Asked Questions

1. What is HEMA-free builder gel and why does it matter for nail technicians?
HEMA (Hydroxyethyl Methacrylate) is a common ingredient in gel products associated with skin sensitization and allergic reactions in nail technicians and clients. A HEMA-free builder gel delivers the same performance — adhesion, durability, flexibility — without the sensitization risk. Tones Builder Gels are HEMA-free and TPO-free, making them a safer professional choice.

2. Is Tones Builder Gel safe for natural nails?
Yes. Tones Builder Gel's HEMA-free, TPO-free formula is formulated to be safer for natural nails and clients. When applied and removed correctly using soak-off technique, it will not damage the natural nail plate.

3. How do I apply professional builder gel for nail extensions?
Prep nails with dehydrator and ultrabond primer. Apply a thin layer of builder gel over the natural nail or extension form. Sculpt to the desired shape using a nylon brush. Cure under UV/LED for 60 seconds. File and shape as needed, then finish with a top coat.

4. Can Tones Builder Gel be used for both nail extensions and overlays?
Absolutely. Tones Builder Gels are versatile — ideal for sculpting full nail extensions using forms or tips, and for overlays that strengthen and protect natural nails. The medium viscosity and self-leveling formula work for both applications.

5. What UV/LED lamps are compatible with Tones Builder Gel?
Tones Builder Gel is compatible with both UV and LED lamps. Cures in approximately 60 seconds under LED or 2 minutes under UV. We recommend the Tones Pro UV/LED Nail Lamp for optimal results.

6. How long do builder gel nail extensions last on clients?
With proper nail prep and application, Tones Builder Gel extensions last 3–4 weeks before needing a fill. The chip-resistant, flexible formula maintains integrity and gloss throughout the wear period.

7. What makes Tones Builder Gel chip resistant for 21+ days?
The combination of superior adhesion, a flexible formula that moves with the natural nail, and the HEMA-free single-phase formula creates a chip-resistant enhancement that maintains its bond and finish for 21+ days under normal client conditions.

8. Can I apply regular gel polish over Tones Builder Gel?
Yes. Tones Builder Gel provides an excellent base for gel polish application. Lightly buff the surface after shaping, then apply gel polish and cure as normal. The smooth, self-leveling surface ensures even gel polish adhesion.

9. How do I safely remove professional builder gel without damaging natural nails?
File the surface to break the seal, soak cotton pads in acetone, wrap each nail, and leave for 15–20 minutes. Gently push off the softened gel — never force or peel. For builder gel, longer soak time may be needed vs. thinner gel products.

10. Is Tones Builder Gel odorless during application?
Yes. Tones Builder Gel is formulated to be odorless, providing a more comfortable working environment for both nail technicians and clients during application.
