Review: IBD gel - The IBD Builder Gel for LED and UV light is truly one of the best builder gels I’ve used. It has a smooth consistency that makes application easy, even for beginners. It self-levels beautifully, helping create clean, natural-looking nail extensions or overlays without much effort. The gel cures perfectly under both LED and UV lamps, which is super convenient. Once cured, it feels strong and durable without being too thick or heavy. My clients’ nails last weeks with no lifting or cracking. I also love that it files easily and stays crystal-clear after curing. It’s reliable, professional-quality, and definitely worth the price. If you’re looking for a builder gel that gives long-lasting, salon-quality results, IBD is a great choice!
Review: Professional-grade hard gel - perfect for strong, lasting extensions! - This ibd Hard Gel is absolutely fantastic! The clear formula provides incredible strength and durability that rivals salon-quality extensions. The LED/UV compatibility makes curing quick and convenient with consistent results every time. The consistency is perfectly balanced - thick enough to build structure and length but workable enough to shape and sculpt before curing. It self-levels beautifully for smooth, professional-looking finishes without bubbles or streaking. The clear formula is perfect for natural looks or as a base for polish. What impressed me most is the incredible strength once cured. These extensions last for weeks without chipping, cracking, or lifting. Perfect for anyone who's hard on their nails or wants long-lasting length. The acrylic-like finish is glossy and durable. Excellent for nail extensions, overlays, and sculpting work. Much easier to work with than traditional acrylic systems but delivers the same professional strength. Great for both beginners learning extensions and experienced nail artists. The product consistency remains perfect throughout the bottle with no thickening or separation over time. Easy to control application and shaping makes professional results achievable at home. Essential for quality nail extensions - highly recommend for strong, beautiful, long-lasting nails!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Small, but perfect for personal use
*by G***R on January 12, 2026*

The container is small, but for personal use I think the size is fine. This is my first time doing these on my own and it came out decent. I’m sure each time it’ll come out better. It’s thick so you have to be mindful not to make it too thick as you go. With everything rising in cost it’s great I can continue to have my nails without having to drop hundreds of dollars on them each month. This is a much better cost option for me!
