Choosing the right gel system can feel overwhelming, especially when there are so many innovative options available from Light Elegance. The Light Elegance Gel Family Map is a simple, visual guide that walks you through every step of selecting the perfect products for your business and your clients. Whether you’re building strength, adding flexible overlays, or creatingdazzling nail art, this map helps you understand how each LE system works, and how they all fit together. Let’s break it down.

 

 

STEP 1: DO YOU WANT TO USE BUILDER GEL?

Builder gels add structure and help strengthen the natural nail. They’re perfect for creating overlays, extensions, or simply giving clients longer-lasting wear.

  • Yes: Head down the builder gel path to find the formula andapplication method that suits your style.

  • No: Skip straight to P+ Gel Polish for a simple, soak‑off system with rich color and sparkle. 

 

STEP 2: DO YOU WANT A SOAK-OFF BUILDER?

If you answered “Yes” to builder gel, the next question is all about removal.

  • Yes, I want soak‑off removal: Choose JimmyGel, our soak‑off builder in a bottle. It’s easy to remove, flexible, and ideal for active to medium‑length overlays.
    • Pair it with P+ Gel Polish for stunning colour that also soaks off easily.
    • Pro Tip: Use P+ QDbase under JimmyGel to make removal even faster!
  • No, I prefer file‑off removal: Your next choice is application style.

STEP 3: BOTTLE OR POT?

For file‑off builder gels, it’s all about how you like to work:

  • Bottle: Stick with JimmyGel for a smooth, brush‑on builder that offers strength with speed.
  • Pot: Go with Lexy Line, our hard gel builder loved for its customizable viscosity and unbeatable durability, perfect for long extensions and clients tough on their nails.

STEP 4: ADD COLOUR AND GLITTER

Once your structure is set, it’s time to make it beautiful. Both JimmyGel and Lexy Line pair perfectly with:

If you’re working with P+ Gel Polish, you can apply it over P+ QDbase, JimmyGel, or Lexy Line for extra versatility. Just remember: ButterCream and Glitter Gels must be applied over a structured nail.
