Gel Base, Top Coats & Builder Gels

No. Our 3-in-1 Gel Polish combines base coat, color and top coat in one formula, so you don’t need any extra steps. However, you can add a base coat, builder gel or top coat depending on your nail needs — for extra adhesion, strength, protection or shine.

A base coat creates a smooth foundation for your manicure, helps the color adhere to the nail and provides an extra layer of protection. It can be especially useful if you want to improve adhesion or add an extra protective step to your routine.

Builder gel is a thicker gel designed to add strength and structure to your natural nails. It can help reinforce weak or brittle nails, smooth uneven nails, repair small breaks and create additional shape or length.

A top coat is the finishing layer of a manicure. It helps protect your color, adds extra shine and can help extend the wear of your manicure. You can also use different top coats to change the finish or add special effects.

Each has a different role in your manicure. Primer helps improve adhesion, base coat creates a protective foundation, builder gel adds strength and structure, and top coat seals the manicure and provides the final finish. Which ones you need depends on your nails and the result you want to achieve.
