TOUCH Nails – Builder Gels, Bases & Top Coats
TOUCH Nails is a professional nail brand that covers the full range of materials a nail technician uses at the desk: a hard gel system for extensions and strengthening, rubber and camouflage bases, top coats, gel polishes, brushes and drill bits. The formulas are developed around the everyday needs of salon work: self-leveling consistencies, no shrinkage and easy filing.
TOUCH Product Range at a Glance
- TOUCH Builder Gel – a medium-thick, self-leveling hard gel for extensions on upper and lower forms, strengthening and repairs on short and long nails.
- TOUCH Hard Gel – a hard gel slightly more fluid than Builder Gel, for strengthening, repairs and extensions when you prefer a softer flow.
- TOUCH Jelly Gelly – the hardest gel in the TOUCH system, with a static consistency for square corners, extreme lengths, complex shapes and crack repairs.
- TOUCH Builder Liquid – a liquid builder gel with base-like application, for strengthening and extensions of short to medium nails.
- TOUCH Polygel – a putty-like acrylic-gel hybrid that doesn't run, for strengthening, repairs, architecture corrections and weakened nails.
- TOUCH Cover Bases – elastic camouflage bases, including the PERLA pearl bases, for natural-looking coverage on short and medium nails.
- TOUCH Rubber Base – a clear elastic base under gel polish and a thin underlayer under hard gels.
- TOUCH Top Coats – no-wipe, UV-filter-free and camouflage tops for a glossy finish without a sticky layer.
- TOUCH Gel Polishes – Pedicure – gel polishes for fast, thin pedicure coverage.
Hard Gel System: Builder Gel, Liquid or Jelly Gelly?
All TOUCH hard gels self-level and hold their shape without shrinkage. The main difference is consistency. Builder Gel is the universal choice for most extensions and strengthening. Builder Liquid levels fastest and suits shorter lengths. Jelly Gelly is the most rigid material, made for demanding shapes and extreme lengths.
Bases and Top Coats
TOUCH cover bases even out the tone and texture of the nail plate. The PERLA series adds a delicate pearl glow and works as an alternative to rubbing powders. Among the top coats, Top Non UV No Wipe contains no UV filters and is suited to neon and dark shades, including black. The Cover Top line adds a soft tinted veil.
Tools and Prep
In TOUCH Others you'll find gel and dual-sided brushes, nail forms, TOUCH drill bits, a dehydrator and an ultrabond.

FAQ
What is the difference between TOUCH Builder Gel and Builder Liquid?
Builder Gel has a medium-thick consistency for sculpting and extensions of any length. Builder Liquid is fluid and levels quickly like a base, so it is best for strengthening and extensions of short to medium length.
Is TOUCH Rubber Base enough to strengthen weak nails?
No. Rubber Base is an elastic base and underlayer, not a strengthening material. For weak or problem nails, use it as a thin underlayer and strengthen the nail with Builder Gel, Builder Liquid or Polygel.
Which TOUCH gel is best for long or extreme extensions?
Jelly Gelly is the hardest material in the TOUCH gel system. It holds architecture over the full wear period, which makes it the right choice for extreme lengths, square corners and complex shapes.
Which TOUCH top coat should I use on black or neon nails?
Top Non UV No Wipe. It contains no UV filters, so it doesn't change the shade and avoids the bluish tint that some tops leave on black.
Are TOUCH products EU compliant?
Yes. TOUCH products are CPNP-notified, have a CPSR safety assessment and are TPO-free.
