    How To Step-by-Step Instructions Inside

    Learn how to apply JimmyGel

    1. Prep cuticle and nail plate using the Light Elegance nail prep method
    2. Apply Tack to nails, cure for 30 seconds in the LEDdot or LED MiniDot lamp (Tack will increase long-term adhesion for fills and will also increase soak time for removal) Use P+ QDbase if you plan to soak off JimmyGel
    3. Apply a slip layer of JimmyGel to the nails
    4. Once the slip layer is applied, place an additional dollop of JimmyGel in the apex and stress area of the nails, to add structure. JimmyGel will self-level to a smooth application
    5. Cure for 1-minute in the LEDdot or LED MiniDot
    6. Cleanse the nail with LEpro Cleanser and perfect the nail shape if needed
    7. If adding color, apply desired color gel product (ButterCream, P+ Gel Polish, Color Gel or Glitter Gel) and cure as directed
    8. Finish with Super Shiny or Top Gloss for perfect shine, or Flat Matte when using hard gel decoration or finish with P+ Top Coat when decorating with P+ Gel Polish and cure as directed

    One JimmyGel, Two Ways to Win:

    Use Tack Bonding Agent underneath JimmyGel if you plan on doing fill services.

    Use P+ QDbase underneath JimmyGel if you—or your client—plan to completely soak off their enhancement.

    JIMMYGEL FAQ

    Is JimmyGel HEMA free?
    Like all Light Elegance gels, JimmyGel is 100% HEMA free!

    What is the soak off time?
    20-25 minutes when soaking thin layer of JimmyGel after removing any hard gel(s) on top and extra thickness.

    Can I use with non Light Elegance products?
    JimmyGel is compatible with most gels on the the market, but performance can only be guaranteed when using Light Elegance gels.

    What is the cure time for JimmyGel?
    We recommend 1 minute LED or 2 minutes UV, but you may find that it cures faster with thin applications.  When applying for fast one-step manicures, cure for 2 minutes using the “120s” hard gel button in the LEDdot for high shine!

    Great for Gel X!

    Like many others, I developed contact dermatitis from gels containing HEMA. I was devastated as I loved doing Gel X manicures myself to save a chunk of change every two weeks. After taking a break from all gel and doing some research, I found Light Elegance. Many users said that they too had allergic reactions due to HEMA products, and this brand didn't trigger it, so I decided to try it. It's been 4 days since I did my nails and I have NO ALLERGIC REACTION! � This builder gel works AMAZING for my Gel X manicures. It cures beautifully smooth and (with the correct prep) holds my nails on for weeks. The next test for this builder gel will be a Gel X fill!

    Jimmy Gel Cappuccino Shimmer

    My favorite Jimmy Gel color so far. I paired it on my natural with Glitter Gel She’s a Star. Jimmy Gels are a fabulous addition to my nail services. Nice **** overlays, understated yet classy. Thank you.

    Diamond Dust Jimmy Gel

    I love all of the new Jimmy Gel except for Diamond Dust sadly. It is a bit of a streaky base and the pretty shimmer is so minimal. I may learn to love in time or just use it on myself. Jimmy Gel is a fabulous addition to my nail services. Dusty Rose, Cappuccino Shimmer and Sparkling Rosé are my customer favorites

    OBSESSED!

    I am obsessed with the Sparkling Rosé JimmyGel Building Base!! The soft pinkish hue with it's beautiful shimmer is perfect - it's subtle, feminine and adds just the right amount of sparkling shimmer to any nail look or on it's own. It's so easy to apply and self-levels like a dream. AND the fact that it is HEMA-free is a huge win for me and my clients. I ended up with contact dermatitis from products with HEMA. I switched to Light Elegance HEMA-free products this year and they continue to impress with these gorgeous, safe and high-quality formulas!
