A lasting gel manicure starts with reinforced natural nails. Peeling natural nails, chipped corners, or uneven sidewalls?
These issues must be corrected before applying a gel overlay. Otherwise, once the nails are used over the next 3–4 weeks, the stress points may cause the gel to lift or the natural nail to break.

Pro Tip: Keep in mind and advise your clients that infills for soft gel should be 2-3 weeks (yes!) and 4-5 weeks for hard gels.

At Gellifique, we offer three products specifically designed for nail repairs and reinforcement:

• Fiber Base Coat (soak-off system)
• Speed Sculpt Gel (file-off system)
• Acrylic Gel (file-off system)

All three are now available in Clear, making them incredibly versatile for use under any nail service.

Fiber Base Coat

A medium-viscosity soak-off base infused with fine nylon fibres for added strength. It fortifies splitting or damaged nails and can also be used to create short extensions or repair chipped nail corners.
(Please note: this product does not contain fibreglass fibres — only cosmetic-grade nylon for structural reinforcement.)

Features:

• Strengthens and supports thin, flexible, or splitting nails
• Ideal for repairing chipped corners or small breaks
• Excellent as a BIAB-style overlay
• Smooth, self-levelling formula for effortless application

Speed Sculpt Gel

Our best-selling Speed Sculpt Gel has been a client favourite for over two years. It’s a thixotropic builder gel — meaning it stays in place until you start working with it, then gently self-levels once manipulated.
This mousse-like texture makes it ideal for precise nail repairs, overlays, or natural nail strengthening without running into the cuticles. Now also available in Clear, by popular demand!

Features:
Mousse-like texture for full control
Thixotropic formula (moves only when worked)
Perfect for fast, accurate nail repairs and overlays
File-off removal

Acrylic Gel

A must-have for correcting hooked or uneven nail shapes. Its hybrid formulation combines pre-polymerised acrylic powder with gel oligomers, creating a strong, flexible structure that’s comfortable to wear and easy to control.

Because of this pre-polymerisation, heat spikes are minimised or eliminated during curing — making it a low-heat or no-heat system.
It’s also odour-free and low-dust, providing a cleaner work environment.

Features:

• Excellent for nail shape correction and structural repairs
• Low or no heat during curing
• Odour-free and low-dust
• Long-lasting and strong, yet flexible finish
