Professional-Grade Builder Gel for Strong, Lasting Nails
DARK Smart Builder Gel #20 is a professional self-leveling builder gel designed for nail techs who demand precision, performance, and versatility. With a medium-thick consistency, this gel is ideal for building both long and short nails, offering the perfect balance between strength and flexibility.
What Makes Smart Different?
Unlike traditional builder gels, DARK Smart Gel features a slightly thinner yet firm texture that makes application smoother and more controlled. It contains no viscous sticky layer, which means:
-
No need to wipe the base before gel application
-
No cleansing needed before applying the top coat
-
Faster, cleaner workflow with less product waste
It’s formulated to minimize the risk of lifting or peeling, ensuring your sets stay flawless longer.
