FAQs OPI GELevate™
- What is GELevate™ Builder? OPI Intelli-Builder has been developed to be a perfect builder for Nail professionals. It has high viscosity and 'stays where you put it' to enable Nail Professional to build Apex and Structure. However, the builder self-levels into a smooth surface. OPI GELevate™ is a 4-in-1 multi-use builder that can Build Length, Overlay, Adhere Full Coverage Tips to Natural nail and Infill. GELevate™ Builder is also HEMA-FREE, TPO FREE and Vegan.
- What do I use as a Base Coat? Follow the protocol for your prep steps, then apply and cure GELevate™ Builder in OPI'M Flawless (Clear) Or you can use Intelli-Gel™ Super Base instead to achieve more of a soak off removal.
- How do you remove the system? GELevate™ is a file off system which is designed to be infilled. If you have used Super Base as your base layer you would file the GELevate™ to a thin layer and soak to remove. If you have used the full GELevate™ system, you can file off either by hand or with an e-file. Please attend education for further information.
- What would you use Bondex for? Boost the longevity of your OPI GELevate™ Builder services with OPI Bondex; an acid-free primer that contains a touch of HEMA for extended wear, adhesion and durability. Apply after BondAid. Please note, Bondex contains HEMA- so exclude this to ensure a HEMA free manicure.
- What are Full Coverage Tips? OPI has developed pre-etched Full Coverage Tips that look natural and premium. They are adhered to the nail with GELevate™ Clear Builder gel. The apex location accommodates natural nail growth such that it can be easily infilled and rebalanced for longer overall service time.
- What does pre-etched mean? OPI full coverage tips are pre-etched on the top and bottom to enable easy, effortless and fast application onto consumer's nail. Nail Professionals do not need to file the nail surface by hand or with an e-file to achieve better adhesion. The nail tips are etched on top to allow even application of colour directly without any need for buffing.
- What does it cost per service? From £1.67 * Dependant on the service provided.
