Builder Gel and BIAB: Your Questions
Is this a BIAB kit?
BIAB is the name many people use for builder-in-a-bottle gel. Our Fibre Fix 5-in-1 is a builder gel of that type: a thick, self-levelling gel you brush on and cure under the LED lamp to strengthen natural nails. This kit gives you the gel and the lamp you need to do it at home.
How long does builder gel last?
Typically 2–3 weeks without chipping or lifting, with good nail prep. Many customers do an infill or a fresh set every 2–3 weeks.
What is the difference between builder gel (BIAB) and gel polish?
Gel polish is a thin coloured layer. Builder gel is thicker and adds structure, so it protects weak nails and lasts longer. You can wear Fibre Fix on its own or put gel colour on top.
How do I remove it?
Lightly buff the top layer, then soak with acetone wraps for 10–15 minutes and gently push the gel off. No heavy filing needed. See our guide to soaking off builder gel at home.
I have never done BIAB nails before. Is it hard?
No. Builder gel is one of the most beginner-friendly systems because it is a single gel, with no powders or liquids. Follow the video tutorial, and if you are brand new, read what BIAB nails are first.

EU Approved
At Ambedo Beauty, your safety always comes first. Many gel products on the market still use TPO (Diphenyl(2,4,6-trimethylbenzoyl)phosphine oxide), a photoinitiator recently banned in the EU due to safety concerns around skin sensitivity and toxicity.
Our products are different. Instead of TPO, we use the upgraded and safer alternative TPO-L (Ethyl trimethylbenzoyl phenylphosphinate). TPO-L delivers the same high-performance curing power with a cleaner safety profile and lower risk of irritation, making it the modern standard in nail technology.
With Ambedo, you can enjoy salon-quality results at home knowing your gels are formulated with cutting-edge safer science and are free from outdated and potentially harmful ingredients.
12 Free
What Does 12-Free Mean?
A 12-Free label signifies that our product is free from the 12 most toxic substances often present in conventional gel and nail polishes.
Ambedo Solid Gel Polish Excludes:
Formaldehyde – Typically used to harden polish, formaldehyde is a recognised carcinogen. Prolonged exposure may trigger skin irritation, allergies, and has connections to cancers of the respiratory system.
Toluene – Responsible for the strong, chemical aroma in some polishes, toluene ensures even dispersion of colour pigments for a smooth finish. However, inhalation or contact may harm the nervous system, causing headaches, dizziness, or nausea, and is suspected to heighten risks of developmental issues during pregnancy.
Dibutyl Phthalate (DBP) – Acting as a plasticiser and solvent, DBP enhances polish flexibility to resist chipping. Yet, skin absorption is linked to reproductive harm, fertility challenges, and congenital abnormalities.
Camphor – Artificial camphor lends a high-shine effect but may induce nausea, migraines, or lightheadedness with prolonged use.
Formaldehyde Resin – Though it strengthens nails, this derivative can irritate skin and compromise immune function.
Xylene – Used to maintain a smooth consistency, xylene’s harsh vapours (common in industrial products like adhesives) may damage vital organs, including the liver and kidneys, upon overexposure.
Parabens – These preservatives, prevalent in cosmetics, mimic oestrogen and are tied to hormonal disruptions.
Fragrances – Synthetic scents often contain undisclosed chemical blends that may provoke rashes, itching, or worsen skin conditions like eczema.
Phthalates – Added to increase product malleability, these chemicals are associated with heightened cancer risks.
Ethyl Tosylamide – This plasticiser and film-forming agent improves polish durability but raises concerns due to limited safety data.
Triphenyl Phthalate (TPHP) – A dual-purpose plasticiser and flame retardant, TPHP’s potential endocrine-disrupting effects remain under scrutiny.
HEMA – known for its adhesive properties, uncured HEMA can cause severe skin allergies and sensitivities.
By avoiding these ingredients, Ambedo prioritises safety without compromising on vibrant colour, longevity, or shine. Our formula champions wellness, ensuring your nail routine keeps you beautiful both inside and out.

I can finally stop going to the nail salon. Even a beginner like me did a professional looking job. Definitely recommend.
First time doing my own nails (except for nail polish previously). Used to get my nails done professionally with BIAB, but won’t be doing that any more!! These turned out so beautifully on the first try. Love the self leveling. Easier than I thought it would be. Hopefully it won’t be hard to remove when the time comes.
I LOVE that kit has everything you need! I'm not one to spend money on my nails so having this diy kit was very much my style. I'm quite impressed with how well it went for my first attempt, but I need some practice.
Works really well
Doesnt last. Peels off
Hi Milly!
We're sorry to hear about your experience. The most common reasons that gels peel off is from nail prep (not using alcohol wipes to remove residue, not buffing) and painting over cuticles/flooding the space between the nails and skin. We would love to assist you in getting the best results possible to make the gel last for weeks, so please don't hesitate to reach out to us via email, website chat, or social DMs so we can help you get an amazing mani! x
Kindest regards,
Team Ambedo
I'm so thankful to have found this product. It's helping me through the process of reviving my seriously damaged nails, keeping them from shredding away on a daily basis. I'm not a nail tech, so there is definitely a learning curve but the videos make the process easy to learn and approachable.
We're so happy to hear that our BIAB Builder Gel Starter Kit is helping you on your nail rehabilitation journey! Please reach out if you need any more tips, tricks and advice on perfecting your builder gel applications, we're here to help. Thank you for sharing your experience and for your support. Keep up the great work!
I am so impressed with this product. So easy to apply and has not even chipped once after two weeks of wear. The only reason I’ll need to remove soon is because my nails are growing out. Never found anything that lasts as long as this. Will be buying more colours! Thank you for making this product. Love!!!
Great at home option for BIAB. No remover included. No instructions for removal or infills. UV lamp didn’t work.
Love the firmness of my nails after applying the base fibre gel. Still getting used to the application technique.
First time using builder gel, really impressed! No damage left on nails after removal, and gel lasted 2 weeks, just had to take them off as nails grew out a fair bit.
Great value Starter pack. So easy to use and colour is great. I bought the Antique Rose and just enough colour. My nails were quite damaged from Salon gel so now time to help repair with the Ambedo
I received these and omg amazing so easy to use and so quick 🩷
