Glitterbels Hema Free Builder-Bel Gel 17ml Crystal

• Glitterbels HEMA-Free Builder-Bel Gel in Crystal, 17ml
• Clear HEMA-free builder gel in bottle-applicator format
• Vegan-friendly and cruelty-free
• Structural reinforcement without visible colour

Glitterbels HEMA-Free Builder-Bel Gel in Crystal is a 17ml bottle of professional HEMA-free builder gel in a direct-from-bottle applicator format, with a clear/transparent finish as suggested by the "Crystal" shade name — the invisible/structural-base option in the HEMA-Free Builder-Bel range for clients who want the structural reinforcement without any colour or shimmer showing on the nail. Different from the pot-and-brush Clear shade in the wider Brush-On Builder Gel range earlier in the sprint — same core clear-builder-gel function but in the direct-from-bottle format and with HEMA-free chemistry. HEMA-free chemistry is genuinely significant for allergen-sensitive clients and for building a fully HEMA-free chain (alongside the HEMA-Free Acid-Free Primer, HEMA-Free Acrylic Liquid, HEMA-Free Base Coat and HEMA-Free Gel Polish shades).

Key features

• Professional HEMA-free builder gel, 17ml
• Bottle-applicator format (direct-from-bottle application)
• Shade: Crystal (clear/transparent)
• Vegan-friendly and cruelty-free
• Compatible with soak-off gels and hard gels
• Can be used with or without a bonding agent
• Suitable for short-length extensions with form or plastic tip
• Files off (rather than soak-off removal)
• Cures under UV or LED lamp

How to use

Prep the natural nail: cuticle work, light etching or buffing, apply Glitterbels HEMA-Free Acid-Free Primer if using bonding-agent workflow. Apply Crystal directly from the bottle onto the nail — the bottle format lets you place the product exactly where you want it without loading a separate brush. Build the shape and thickness needed for reinforcement or short extension. Cure under UV or LED lamp per the specific cure routine. Apply additional coats if building more shape or length, curing between each. For short extension work, apply over a nail form or plastic tip and shape as needed. Finish with a top coat and cure. As a clear builder gel, Crystal can also be used as a structural base layer under coloured gel polish for extra reinforcement on flimsy natural nails while showing the polish colour on top. Removal is by filing off rather than soaking in acetone.

Who it's for

This gel is for professional nail techs and confident home users doing natural-nail overlays where the finish should read as invisible — either as a standalone clear overlay or as a structural base under coloured gel polish. We've spent years helping clients in Codsall look and feel their best, and as a working salon, we know clear builder gel is the workhorse of the builder gel range — it works as a standalone overlay for clients who don't want any colour, or as a structural base under coloured gel polish for clients whose natural nails need the reinforcement but want colour on top. Crystal is the HEMA-free bottle-format equivalent to the Clear shade in the wider Brush-On Builder Gel range for allergen-sensitive clients who want the invisible structural work.

For professional and adult use. HEMA-free formulation reduces but does not eliminate all allergen risk — individuals with severe acrylate or nail-product allergies should consult a GP or dermatologist before use. Builder gel provides mechanical reinforcement to the natural nail during wear — it does not repair, heal or restore damaged nail plate; the natural nail underneath is unchanged and grows out as normal. Uncured gel can cause allergic sensitisation with prolonged repeated skin exposure. Cures under UV or LED lamp — see the DreamCure Lamp safety guidance regarding UV/LED skin exposure and photosensitivity considerations. Not for use on infected or broken nail plate — consult a GP for signs of paronychia or nail-plate infection. Keep out of reach of children.
