Silky Ballerina Gel | Self-Leveling Builder Gel HEMA Free

Silky Ballerina Gel is a HEMA Free self-leveling builder gel in a delicate pink shade with fine silver reflections. Feminine and luminous, the effect is subtly highlighted depending on the light, making it suitable for French manicures, babyboomer designs, delicate manicures, or worn as is.

The professional formula with medium viscosity and a light texture offers a balance between stability, flexibility, and self-leveling. It does not run into the cuticle, allows for controlled apex modeling, and is suitable for nail form sculpting, Fast Tips extensions, and quick refills.

It is part of the POWER COUPLE collection – the same shade, available in two professional formulas: Builder Gel and Rubber Base, for situations where the work technique or the technician's preference requires a different formula.

💡 To keep in mind: POWER COUPLE means the same shade in two different formulas.

The intensity of the color may vary slightly between the Builder Gel and the Rubber Base, depending on the formula, the amount of product, and the application technique.

💡 How to apply POWER COUPLE Builder Gel?

1. Nail preparation

Prepare the natural nail and cuticle area correctly. Completely remove dust and degrease the nail plate with GN Pure Acetone or GN Nail Prep.

2. Adhesion

Apply, according to preference, 007 Bond Primer, Primer Ultra Bond, Primer Acid Based or Primer Pen only on the natural nail to increase adhesion. For nails with adhesion problems or during very hot periods, we recommend Primer Acid Based or Primer Pen Acid.

3. Base

For optimal adhesion, apply a thin layer of Bonder Base Gel, Rubber Base 1 Clear or NA Fiber Base Gel and cure completely.

4. Construction

Apply a slip layer of the Builder Gel and cure completely.

Apply the second layer, model the apex, and cure completely.

5. Finishing

Remove the dispersion layer with Cleanser, file the final shape with Pro File, and finish with GN Pro Buffer File. Completely remove filing dust.

Apply, if desired, Colour Gel or GetLac Colours, then seal with your preferred GN Top Gel and cure completely.

If the Top has a dispersion layer, remove it according to the product instructions. Finish with cuticle oil.

💡 Tips & Tricks – POWER COUPLE Gel

1. Correctly prepare the natural nail and choose the right adhesion system.

Proper preparation is essential for the adhesion and durability of the work.

2. Use a thin base layer for optimal adhesion.

Bonder Base Gel, Rubber Base 1 Clear or NA Fiber Base Gel can be used according to the working technique.

3. Work nail by nail.

The recommended 1-1 system allows you to maintain control over the product, shape, and apex.

4. Take advantage of self-leveling without overloading the nail.

Distribute the material in a controlled manner and let the formula even out before curing.

5. For the cuticle area, use a thin brush.

It is easier to achieve a precise contour and control the amount of product.

6. Turn the hand for a few seconds when the technique allows it.

It can help center the material and define the apex.

7. For Fast Tips, adapt the amount of product to the length and architecture of the extension.

8. Respect the full curing time.

The thickness of the material and pigmentation can influence deep curing.

9. File only after complete curing and removal of the dispersion layer.

10. Keep the container away from direct lamp light, UV rays, and excessive heat.

-Due to the amount of product in the container, the shade may appear more intense in the jar than in application.

-A broken/opened seal excludes product return.

9. What is the difference between POWER COUPLE Gel and Rubber Base?

The two products are available in the same shade but have different formulas and technical roles. The Builder Gel is intended for construction and structural modeling, while the Rubber Base has the flexibility and specific characteristics of a Rubber base. The choice depends on the type of nail, working technique, and desired result.

10. Can I combine POWER COUPLE Gel and Rubber Base in the same manicure?

Yes, when the working technique requires it. The two formulas can be integrated into combined systems and techniques, while respecting the role and method of use for each product.

11. Why does the builder gel not cure completely?

There may be several causes:

✔️ Incomplete UV/LED lamp spectrum – unsuitable lamps or those with insufficient performance may not emit the full required spectrum.

✔️ Insufficient curing time – respect the indicated time for each layer.

✔️ Layer applied too thick – an excessive amount of material can prevent complete deep curing.

✔️ Worn-out lamp or non-functional LEDs – its performance may decrease over time.

💡 Solution: use a professional lamp, periodically check its efficiency, respect the recommended times, and avoid applying excessive amounts of material.
