everything i used to give myself a builder gel fill! i had gel x extensions on, so i filed off the color with an electric drill and smoothed out where the extension met my natural nail, then filed/shaped my nails with an empty board nail file/buffer block. i skipped cuticle work (oops) but linked the stuff i normally use. then, i used the dehydrator (key!!!) added a layer of builder gel (watch how to do this on tiktok, it’s not hard, but there’s a method to it) & then painted with gel polish and top coat! saved me over $100! red nail color is DND raspberry 431 :) LTKBeauty
