- Reviewed in the United States on March 7, 2025I only write reviews typically if something is exceptionally good or bad. This is definitely a winner! Absolutely love it. I purchased the clear and use regular nail polish so I can change colors without removing. So easy to apply and self level and have had no lifting at all. I do use a dehydrating primer before applying. I can’t speak for removal as I’ve only filled and that was super easy. I simply just applied a fresh layer. LOVE this!! My nails are finally growing long, look natural and are very strong with this product on them.
- Reviewed in the United States on December 30, 2024This was my first time using builder gel myself. Shifting into my DIY era. I have small nail beds and my nails are naturally thin and weak. This builder gel has helped my nails grow and stay strong! (They were cut on the pictured set). Highly recommend!

- Reviewed in the United States on March 4, 2025Great product. Easy to apply and long lasting.
- Reviewed in the United States on July 21, 2024This is my second bottle and it’s a game changer! As soon as my nails reach a certain length I use the Orly Fx as a structure overlay for my nails. It’s super beginner friendly and crystal clear! The gel is the perfect viscosity which self levels on its own and following the instructions of BIAB never floods my cuticle or side walls or leaves bubbles. Paired with the correct primer I get absolutely no lifting!! I do have to say due to my primer sometimes it takes a bit longer to soak off. Perfect for beginners! Like any other gel product please use caution and avoid your skin like it’s lava!!! I’ve NEVER experienced heat spikes with this builder gel. Have always come back to it and always will.
Update: wanted to provide an update on how long my natural nails have grown using this BIAB!!! Longest ever and every time I remove the builder gel my nails are strong and healthy!!!

- Reviewed in the United States on January 2, 2025No lifting :) I bought this clear orly and a white from Ibd. This one is much better but as a beginner, the clear is sometimes hard to tell how much you are putting on the nail. I actually mixed a few dabs of the white ibd to my clear and it’s the perfect milky color. Will continue to purchase from this brand!!

- Reviewed in the United States on August 28, 2022First time builder user. I've been doing at home gel for about 4 months now and just stumbled upon builder. Which sounded great for people like me who have very thin brittle nails from an adolescence of biting nails.
This is a very thick gel compared to polish. I really like the short brush tip, makes controlling the product very user friendly.
Definitely watch a lot of how to videos prior to diving in. Creating the apex was a bit of a learning curve for me. Absolutely turn your finger upside down so won't settle in your cuticles prior to cure. I have to do the builder one finger at a time, otherwise it settles in my cuticles no matter how thin the layer is.
I put it on my thumb just to test out how I liked it and was going to take it off but couldn't actually get it off using the gel remover that I use. Ended up doing all my nails and while time consuming, it was great. My nails are Rick solid, didn't have to worry about any tearing. So I was very disappointed when it separated from my nail about a week later. This was only my first run though, so could have been user error. I did use a dehydrator and a base prior to the builder after meticulous cuticle prep.
The biggest negative here is the 🔥🔥🔥 burning! As said before, I've been doing at home gels for a while now. So I know to expect possible burning sensation but holy h*ll. This stuff burns and stings so badly I had to remove my finger from the light 2 x before it was fully cured. I'm giving it a second go now after letting my nails breathe gel free for about 48 hrs. Still burns very badly.

Works just as well as any high quality hard gel👍 Easy to use, file, and no lifting if done properly..
But a bit pricey for the size.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great product that’s easy to use
Great product that is worth the money. It was easy to use and allowed me to get a salon look whilst also adding strength to my nails prior to applying gel colour. I haven’t used to extend any nails so can’t comment on the ease of this. If I were to extend I would purchase the stickers which guide you rather than applying on its own.

4.0 out of 5 stars Gutes Produkt, Preis etwas happig
Ich habe nun schon mehrere Produkte dieser Art ausprobiert, und dies ist auf jeden Fall eines der besseren. Dennoch ist der Preis recht hoch angesetzt. Man bekommt vergleichbare Produkte für weniger Geld. Wer aber gern in gute Produkte investiert, ist hier auf jeden Fall gut aufgehoben!
Durch das Fläschchen mit integriertem Applikatorpinsel ist das Arbeiten super easy.
