I love Extreme Gel! It levels nicely, and it's very durable. Clear Extreme is very popular with my guests who go a whole month between visits. Thanks for making it!
@@darcyolin I LOVE IT! I still use the stain proof Ultra Gloss from Akzentz, but my day-to-day gels are LE. I really enjoy the variety and feel of them, enough that I just recently purchased the Dot to complete the experience. Loving the Buttercreams too.
Love your videos... I’m new to gel, I have only done acrylic but when I started watching Light Elegant videos...I’m hooked and cannot wait to try your gels!! Is there any classes in Connecticut for Light Elegance? THANK YOU 😊
Yes! There are several ways to apply our builder gels, but we have found most techs have great success with a slip layer dollop technique! The slip layer is a thin layer of gel that is left (uncured) before adding your dollop to that slip layer to then work the dollop down the nail and allowing it to self level. You can see an example of this application style here: ua-cam.com/video/KIjkR-xeovk/v-deo.htmlsi=-4s74jZnrBST3_a3
Is it normal for me to naturally want to build the nail thicker than that because everyone always seems to crack or snap them before returning in 3 weeks 😑 especially if they are way longer
You dont have to worry about allergy reactions with this for real? Like i watched the video and you didnt seem to get any on the skin but even if u did would it make my skin crack i have allergies

Why... why do the videos show extreme standing still? Are you guys in a very cold room? Cause extreme was almost as runny as the 1 step. Which was crazy to me.
Extreme is a thicker viscosity than 1-Step gel, but if it is warmed, it will move quicker. The space we work in is about 70degrees on average and the Extreme does move slower than 1-step at that temp. I hope this helps.
@@darcyolin I'm guessing that's 70 F lol. I have Soft Pink and Baby Pink in the Extreme ...er... flavors and they are quite runny even in a nyc winter where it becomes -10 C (idk) sometimes. I was looking to stop using 1 step to make clear extensions, but the extreme seems just as runny D: I have the builder, but it's kind of foggy.
@@darcyolin Hi, I live in Perth Western Australia and it can get very hot here I have very thin nails can you tell me what you recommend for thin Nail. Love all your videos
@@sushles yes, that would be 70F. I used to live in upstate NY, very far north, not far from the Canadian border and it sure does get cold there! Haha One thing you can try, if you feel your extreme moves too quickly, is to set it in the refrigerator for a few minutes. This will cause it to thicken and move more slowly,
@@angiestojanovski1463 Thank you Angie. I do recommend Airbond, Tack & an Extreme Gel for very thin nails. This combination creates a strong bond to the natural nail, with strength and flexibility in the gel.

Hello there. Which milky white builder do you recommend to create natural looking extension please? Xx
Some great LE options would be Natural or Boomer White JimmyGel and Natural Tip or French Tip.
OMG Leslie you need to do ASMR !! 55 seconds in and I'm like brain melt :) Time for bed zzzz
Waiiiittt a sec.... can you use any gel as a base? I thought only one 1 step could be used as a base?
Any of our Lexy Line or JimmyGels can be applied directly onto Tack. 😁
Q: What brush is used for Extreme and Glitter, please?
Thank you.
The Extreme Gel was applied using the #4 Oval Bling Brush and the Glitter Gel was applied with the #6 Gel Polish Brush.
@@darcyolin
Thank you very much!
@@adgreene You’re welcome!
so does this mean diamond glitters are available to purchase again ?
Tiny Diamond and Big Diamond Glitter gels are still available.
Your website says to use a slip layer. Is that just a thin layer of the builder?
Yes! There are several ways to apply our builder gels, but we have found most techs have great success with a slip layer dollop technique! The slip layer is a thin layer of gel that is left (uncured) before adding your dollop to that slip layer to then work the dollop down the nail and allowing it to self level.

Be sure you’re building in a good C-Curve, with Apex & stress area support and you should be good with thinner extensions.
