Candy Gel №5 Builder Gel from Luna Moon
Colored builder gel Candy from Luna Moon is a polymer light-curing material distinguished by high strength and the ability to significantly extend the nail plate. It contains photoinitiators that trigger the polymerization process under ultraviolet light of a specific wavelength. The material is convenient to work with, easy to model, and provides long-lasting coverage without cracks or shrinkage.
