Vibrant color. Professional strength. HEMA & TPO Free formula.

DNKa’ Builder Gel Dopamine is a professional HEMA-Free and TPO-Free color builder gel collection featuring 9 bold, highly pigmented shades designed for strengthening natural nails, structured overlays, modeling and nail extensions.

Its medium-thick consistency provides excellent control during application while allowing nail professionals to create strong, durable nail architecture. Depending on application thickness, the shades provide approximately 50–90% pigmentation, combining vibrant color with the structural performance of a professional hard builder gel.

The HEMA-Free and TPO-Free formula makes Dopamine an excellent addition to professional nail systems for technicians looking for modern European builder gel formulas without these two ingredients.

Use each shade individually, combine several colors in one set, or mix shades together to create custom colors.

How to Use

Natural Nail Strengthening & Overlays

  1. Prepare the natural nail using the appropriate professional nail preparation technique.
  2. Thoroughly remove dust and cleanse the nail plate.
  3. Apply dehydrator and allow it to air dry.
  4. Apply Ultrabond, avoiding contact with the skin and surrounding tissue.
  5. Apply a thin layer of a compatible transparent base and cure.
  6. Apply DNKa’ Builder Gel Dopamine and create the desired nail architecture.
  7. Cure completely in a compatible UV/LED lamp.
  8. If necessary, remove the inhibition layer and refine the structure with a file.
  9. Remove filing dust.
  10. Finish with a compatible top coat.

Manufacturer curing recommendation: approximately 120–240 seconds in a 36/48 W LED/UV lamp.

Nail Extensions

DNKa’ Builder Gel Dopamine can also be used for modeling and nail extensions with upper or lower forms. Create the desired length and architecture, cure completely, remove the form and refine the structure when necessary before applying top coat.

Professional Tip

When strengthening natural nails with a hard builder gel, apply a compatible flexible base underneath to create an appropriate foundation between the natural nail and the rigid structural material.
