- Glitterbels HEMA-Free Builder-Bel Gel in Shy, 17ml
- Subtle nude HEMA-free builder gel in bottle-applicator format
- Vegan-friendly and cruelty-free
- Reinforces the natural nail and adds short-length extension
Glitterbels HEMA-Free Builder-Bel Gel in Shy is a 17ml bottle of professional HEMA-free builder gel in a direct-from-bottle applicator format. 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). Shy sits in the subtle/reserved territory — likely soft nude or barely-there pastel direction, fitting alongside the barely-there natural nude cluster (Bare Necessities, Barely There, Get Naked) in the range for understated everyday work.

- Vegan-friendly and cruelty-free

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 directly from the bottle onto the nail. 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. 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 reinforcement in a subtle nude shade. We've spent years helping clients in Codsall look and feel their best, and as a working salon, we know subtle nude shades earn their place as the understated everyday workhorse — clients wanting polished-natural nails without visible colour statement, corporate work, understated bridal, mother-of-the-bride, and clients whose personal aesthetic leans invisible-refined. Sits alongside Bare Necessities, Barely There and Get Naked in the barely-there nude cluster of the range.

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.
