F.O.X. Builder Gel Thixotropic #004, 15 ml. Builders gel with thixotropic properties

Builder Gel Thixotropic 004 — professional, modeling three-phase gel in a peach-pink shade with a warm undertone, with an 'adaptive consistency' effect.

Thanks to thixotropic technology, the material remains stable at rest but becomes more fluid when worked with a brush. This provides maximum control over material placement and allows creating an ideal architecture without flooding.

The gel combines high strength, excellent self-leveling, and shape stability, making it a versatile solution for strengthening natural nails, sculpting, and correction of any length.

Product advantages:

• Thixotropic formula with an 'adaptive consistency' effect. 
• Suitable for all techniques.
• Full control over material during placement.
• Easy self-leveling.
• Allows working on multiple nails simultaneously.
• Holds the defined architecture and height clearly.
• High mechanical strength after polymerization.
• Suitable for short, medium, and long nails.
• Maintains apex height when performing a sculpted French.
• Saves master’s time and material consumption.
• Comfortable for both beginners and experienced masters.

Application:

• strengthening natural nails;
• sculpting on lower forms;
• work with upper forms;
• extension of corners;
• correction of artificial nails.

Thixotropy is a property of a material to temporarily reduce viscosity under mechanical influence. In simple terms: in the jar the gel appears thick and stable, but when worked with a brush it becomes more fluid and distributes easily on the nail plate. When the motion stops, the material regains density and holds the created shape. This is why thixotropic gels do not run and allow the master to fully control material placement.

Application technique:

1. Préparer la plaque de l'ongle
2. Appliquer une fine couche de F.O.X Scotch Base ou Air Base — polymériser dans une lampe UV/LED 60 sec
3. À l'aide d'un pinceau, appliquer Builder Gel Thixotropic, polymériser 60–120 sec selon l'épaisseur de la couche
4. Enlever la couche collante avec Gel Cleanser, effectuer le limage
5. Appliquer tout top F.O.X — polymériser 60 sec

Sur les formes inférieures :

4. Mettre en place les formes de modelage et former une fine couche de base avec le gel. Polymériser dans une lampe UV 36W — 1 min, LED/UV 36/48W — 30 secondes.
5. Retirer les formes et construire l'architecture des ongles à la longueur souhaitée avec le gel. Polymériser dans une lampe UV 36W — 2-3 min, LED/UV 36/48W — 2-4 min, selon la densité de la couche appliquée.
6. Enlever la couche collante et limer. L'ongle est prêt pour le revêtement de gel polish ou de top de F.O.X.

RÉSULTAT
Des ongles parfaitement modelés avec une architecture correcte, une armature solide et une surface lisse. Minimum de limage, maximum de contrôle et un travail confortable sans coulures.
