primer
The combination of Base Gel and Base Fluid provides maximum adhesion for a stable gel model. Perfect gel modeling begins with the right base. To ensure optimal adhesion, the GenerationRed series offers two powerful products for different requirements:
Base Fluid – The ultra-strong adhesion promoter
The GenerationRed Base Fluid is a reliable bonding agent specially developed for problem nails. It improves the adhesion of gel polish to the natural nail, ensuring a long-lasting and stable gel polish. The bonder dries in the air – after a drying time of 2 minutes, a slightly tacky layer forms, providing an ideal base for the next layer of gel.
Possible applications:
- Continue working directly with the builder gel
- Alternatively, for additional hold, first apply a primer gel and cure
Advantages:
- Ultra-strong bonding agent for problem nails
- Air-drying in 2 minutes
- HEMA-free & vegan
GenerationRed Base Gel – The perfect foundation for your modeling
The GenerationRed Base Gel (15 ml) is a high-quality primer gel that ensures long-lasting adhesion of gel nail polish. It's the ideal base for builder gels and, thanks to its thin consistency, can be easily worked into the nail. It offers maximum flexibility and high resilience, especially for problem nails.
Application:
- Apply thinly – especially effective
- Do not remove the condensation layer after curing
- Massage into the nail with a short brush
Advantages:
- Optimal base gel for problem nails
- High flexibility for long durability
- Free from methacrylic acid – particularly gentle
- HEMA-free & vegan
Our recommendation for maximum adhesion:
For a strong lift, we recommend curing the base gel twice for 120 seconds each . For even better hold, GenerationRed Base Fluid can be applied as an additional adhesive layer before the base gel .
Construction
GenerationRed Fiber Gels are innovative builder gels with fiberglass particles that ensure a particularly stable and long-lasting finish. They are applied as a second layer after the base gel and are ideal for building the C-curve . Thanks to their medium-viscosity consistency, they are easy to apply, are free of methacrylic acid , and are therefore particularly gentle on natural nails.
Application :
- The Fiber Clear should ideally be combined with the LED Base Fluid to reduce the curing time to 60 seconds.
- Fiber-Gel Rose is also suitable for strengthening natural nails and can be smoothed with a file or sealed directly into the nail layer as needed.
- Nail art can be optimally created after a first layer of building gel.
GenerationRed Sculpture Gels are medium- to thick-viscosity builder gels that enable precise and long-lasting gel sculpting. They don't bleed into the nail edges and can be flexibly modeled—ideal for building C-curves . Thanks to their gentle formula without methacrylic acid, they are gentle on the natural nail while still providing an extremely resilient and stable base.
Advantages :
- Medium to thick viscosity builder gel – easy to work with
- Particularly flexible & high resilience
- Free from methacrylic acid & HEMA – gentle on natural nails
- Vegan
Application :
- Sealing: Work directly into the sweat layer or smooth the surface beforehand with cleaner and file.
- Nail art: Best done after a first layer of builder gel and then modelling.
- Color gels: Can be applied directly to the filed structure – for a flexible design without the need for complete remodeling.
French and finish
The GenerationRed French Gel white has a low viscosity and, thanks to its strong pigmentation, creates a radiant French tip even when applied thinly. This creates a perfectly defined smile line on the gel modeling that is not bulky and cures excellently. The French Gel can be used either on top of the builder gel or in combination with a cover gel or makeup gel. This ensures perfect adhesion .
We recommend using a swirl or French brush for application. The gel contains no methacrylic acid and is therefore very gentle on natural nails.
Advantages :
- low viscosity
- opaque
- free of methacrylic acid
- HEMA free
- vegan
The vegan GenerationRed Perfect Finish 14ml sealant provides a stunning shine to gels . It cures without a sweat layer, saving you cleaner, tissue paper , and time. The sealing gel has a thin, viscous consistency. Perfect Finish can also be used over all color gels . It displays a fantastic shine after just 60 seconds of curing under UV/LED light.
Advantages :
- thin-viscosity sealing gel
- extra high gloss without sweat layer
- free of methacrylic acid
- HEMA free
- vegan
Application :
- GenerationRed Perfect Finish can also be cured in a UV unit. Application with LED is more time-saving.
- Curing time : 120 seconds in UV unit and 60 seconds in UV/LED unit
