Every nail professional knows the struggle: lifting, breaking, under-curing, uneven structure—the list goes on. Even the most talented nail artists can run into service breakdowns if the right products and systems aren’t in place.

The good news? Light Elegance has engineered solutions for every step of the service, ensuring that each set you create is strong, beautiful, and built to last.

Below, we walk through common nail problems and the LE products designed to solve them.

PROBLEM #1: Persistent Lifting or Poor Adhesion

Lifting at the cuticle, sidewalls, or free edge is one of the most frustrating issues in the salon. Even when prep is spotless, some clients simply need a little extra help achieving strong adhesion.

SOLUTION: Tack Bonding Agent

Tack is your first line of defense against lifting.
This must-have bonding agent grips the natural nail and creates the ideal foundation for any LE enhancement.

Why it works:

• Creates an ultra-sticky layer for maximum adhesion

• Prevents lifting, even on “problem lifters”

• Compatible with all Light Elegance gels and builder systems

If adhesion issues are holding you back, Tack is often the difference between a service that fails—and one that lasts 4+ weeks.

PROBLEM #2: Weak Structure or Extensions That Break

Whether you're sculpting a structured overlay or building out length, nails that crack or break can cost time, money, and client trust.

SOLUTION: JimmyGel Builder in a Bottle

JimmyGel is the builder solution that combines flexibility and strength in one effortless formula. It’s perfect for overlays, short-medium extensions, and speedy salon services.

Why pros love it:

• Flexible strength that resists cracks and breaks

• Self-leveling formula for smooth, even structure

• Ideal for overlays, tips, and sculpted forms

• Soaks off when needed—versatility you can’t beat

If you want strength without bulk and speed without shortcuts, JimmyGel is the answer.

PROBLEM #3: Need Stronger, Longer, or More Sculpted Extensions

Sometimes you need a builder gel that can do it all: flawless shaping, long extensions, durability, and a consistency that behaves exactly how you want.

SOLUTION: Lexy Line Hard Gels

The Lexy Line is Light Elegance’s most beloved hard gel system—trusted for years by professionals who need control, sculptability, and long-lasting results.

What makes Lexy Line unbeatable:

• Multiple viscosities for every service style

• Nearly indestructible strength for long enhancements

• Smooth self-leveling or stay-put builder options

• Crystal-clear clarity and beautiful finishes

Whether you prefer self-leveling gels like 1-Step or Extreme or non self-leveling gels like our Builder formula, Lexy Line delivers strength and reliability you can count on.

PROBLEM #4: Under-Curing, Heat Spikes, or Inconsistent Results

Even the best gels can’t perform at their peak without proper curing. Inconsistent lamps, weak bulbs, or outdated technology can lead to service breakdown—and sometimes client discomfort.

SOLUTION: LEDdot Gen4 Curing Lamp

The LEDdot Gen4 is engineered to cure Light Elegance gels perfectly, every single time.

Why it changes everything:

• Optimized for every LE formula, from color gels to builders

• Even light distribution for complete, consistent curing

• Smart technology reduces heat spikes and improves comfort

• Sleek, compact design with powerful performance

A great cure is the foundation of a long-lasting, dependable set—and the LEDdot Gen4 delivers exactly that.

The LE System: Where Every Step Supports the Next

When you combine these four powerhouse products, you get a service workflow that solves the most common salon frustrations:

• Tack ensures adhesion.

• JimmyGel or Lexy Line provide strong, beautiful structure.

• LEDdot Gen4 cures each layer perfectly for long-lasting wear.

The result?
Nails that look stunning, feel comfortable, and last week after week, with fewer repairs and happier clients.
