American Creator Starter Kit - Base Gel + Framework Clear + Framework Almondine

American Creator Starter Kit:

• Base Gel Clear (15ml)
• Framework Gel Clear (30ml)
• Framework Gel Almondine (30ml)

This starter kit brings together the three essentials needed to build a complete structured manicure with the American Creator system: Base Gel as the foundation, and two Framework Gel shades — Clear and Almondine — to build and finish the structure. Together, they cover the full range of a builder gel service, from adhesion to architecture to a polished, wearable finish.

Base Gel is a viscous base coat designed to create reliable adhesion between the natural nail plate and builder products on top. It self-levels easily and cures with balanced elasticity, so it stays comfortable to wear without acting as a structural layer itself — its job is strictly adhesion, not building apex or architecture. Framework Gel is a self-leveling hard builder gel with a comfortable, controlled consistency, made for nail modeling without surface filing, as well as for strengthening the natural nail plate. It doesn't produce a heat sensation during curing, keeping the whole service comfortable for the client. Clear gives you a fully transparent structure gel — ideal under color, for a natural finish, or wherever versatility matters — while Almondine adds a warm, almond-nude tone that builds a balanced apex with a soft, flattering finish straight out of the bottle.

Used together as a system, this kit lets you go from bare nail to a fully structured, long-wearing set: Base Gel for adhesion, followed by either Framework shade to build the structure, cured and finished with a top gel of your choice.

How to Use

1. Prepare the nail plate and perform a manicure, carefully removing the pterygium.
2. Degrease the nail thoroughly — this step is especially important with low-acid base gels.
3. Apply Base Gel in a dense, even layer without leveling or building architecture, making sure the nail plate is fully covered with no gaps. Cure for 30 seconds under an LED/Hybrid lamp.
4. Apply Framework Gel (Clear or Almondine) using your chosen technique to build structure and apex. Cure for 60 seconds under an LED/Hybrid lamp.
5. Finish with a top gel of your choice and cure to seal the set.

Framework Gel must always be used over a base coat — this kit pairs it with the matching Base Gel, so you have everything you need in one set.

FAQ

Why does this kit include two Framework shades? Clear gives a versatile, transparent structure for layering under color or a natural look, while Almondine offers a ready-to-wear warm nude finish — together they cover the most common structured manicure needs.

Can Framework Gel be used without Base Gel? No, Framework Gel must always be applied over a base coat like Base Gel to ensure proper adhesion.

Does Base Gel build the apex or structure? No, Base Gel functions strictly as an adhesion layer — the Framework Gel is what builds the architecture and apex.

Will this cause discomfort during curing? Framework Gel doesn't produce a heat sensation during curing; Base Gel may cause a mild thermal sensation depending on the condition of the nail.
