How to use
How to use
CLEAR:
STEP 1. PREP
File nails to shape and use a Mylee Buffing Block* to help gently remove shine from the nail plate. Wipe your nails with a dash of Mylee 2-in-1 Nail Prep & Wipe* on a Mylee Lint Free Wipe* to remove any oils. If you’re prone to lifting, apply the Mylee Dehydrator* followed by the Mylee Acid-Free Primer*.
STEP 2. STRENGTHEN & LENGTHEN
To strengthen, brush on 2-4 very thin layers of Mylee 5-in-1 Clear Builder Gel, curing each layer for 60 seconds. To build extensions of up to 1cm, attach a Mylee Paper Nail Form* and brush the Builder Gel over the entire nail, extending the tip, and cure for 60 seconds. Repeat this step to build a strong extension.
STEP 3. ENCAPSULATE (OPTIONAL)
To encapsulate loose glitter shake your favourite Mylee glitter* over cured Builder Gel, brush off any excess and seal with the 5-in-1 Clear Builder Gel then cure. Alternatively, paint on a dab of Builder Gel, pop on a jewel or decal, cure, encapsulate and cure again.
STEP 4. FINISH
Seal the deal with a Mylee Top Coat* and cure for 60 seconds. If using the regular Mylee Top Coat, remove the tacky layer with 2-in-1 Nail Prep & Wipe on a Lint Free Wipe. Alternatively skip this step and use a Mylee No-Wipe Top Coat*! Wash your hands, apply Mylee Nail & Cuticle Oil*, moisturise, and enjoy your salon-quality mani for up to 3 weeks!*

Storage
Store your Mylee gel nail polishes in a cool, dark place and do not expose them to sunlight as this can cause discolouration, fade the pigment, and pre-cure the nail lacquer, reducing the maximum quantity of nail polish in the bottle.
Tips & Tricks
Tips & Tricks
From quick fixes to full-on glam, Builder Gel is the multitasking must-have your mani routine’s been waiting for. Here’s how to use it like a pro:
Fix chips and cracks
- Broken or cracked a nail? Don’t panic. Mylee Builder Gel is a total nail-saver. Just apply a thin layer over the break and cure for 60 seconds under your LED lamp. It forms a strong, protective overlay that holds everything together until your next mani - or your next trip to the salon.
Add sparkle that stays put
- Want to add gems or jewels to your gel mani? Builder Gel has your back. Once your colour is on, dab a little gel where you want to place your bling, pop on your gem, and cure for 2 minutes. Then apply a layer of Builder Gel over the whole nail to secure everything in place and cure again. No slipping, no snagging - just shine.
Top it off
- Our Clear Builder Gel doubles up as a Top Coat, giving your mani a sleek, high-shine finish while adding an extra layer of strength. Perfect for when you want long-lasting gloss and durability.
Overlay for strength
- Weak, bendy nails? Try a strengthening overlay. A thin layer of Builder Gel over natural nails creates a smooth, supportive finish that helps prevent breaks and keeps your mani looking fresh for longer.
Acrylic alternative
- Builder Gel is a gentler option for those who find acrylics too harsh. It gives you the same sculpted strength, minus the damage - making it ideal for softer or more delicate nails.
Encapsulate glitter
- Love a little sparkle but hate the mess? Use Builder Gel to encapsulate glitter for a smooth, sealed-in shimmer that lasts. No rough textures, no fallout - just pure, polished glam.
- Perfect match for your Super Pigment Builder Gel
- Pre-set 99 second cure time
