Warm Nude is a soft, neutral beige with warm peach and golden undertones. It complements warm and olive skin tones particularly well and delivers a natural, skin-matching finish that works on its own or as a base under any gel polish or lacquer.
IBD Dual Builder Gel in Warm Nude gives you a soft gel and adhesive in a single product. Use it to bond IBD Soft Gel Tips to the natural nail, build overlays directly on the natural nail, or extend tips without switching between multiple products mid-service.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is IBD Dual Builder Gel used for?
IBD Dual Builder Gel works as both a soft gel adhesive and a builder gel in the same product. You can use it to bond IBD Soft Gel Tips to the natural nail, build an overlay directly on the natural nail, or add length over tips. The dual function means fewer products on your station and a faster service from prep to finish.
Is IBD Dual Builder Gel a soak-off product?
Yes. The formula is a soak-off soft gel, which means removal does not require drilling or heavy filing. Standard acetone soak-off removal applies, making it a gentler option for clients who want nail enhancements without long-term commitment or damage risk to the natural nail.
What is the difference between Warm Nude, Cool Nude, and Barely Nude?
IBD Dual Builder Gel comes in three nude shades to suit different skin tones and client preferences. Warm Nude has a beige base with peach and golden undertones that works best on warm and olive complexions. Cool Nude leans pink with cool undertones and suits neutral to cool skin tones. Barely Nude is the most sheer of the three, sitting closest to a translucent natural finish that suits a wide range of skin tones when a very subtle look is the goal.
Does IBD Dual Builder Gel work under UV and LED lamps?
Yes. The formula cures under both UV and LED lamps. LED cure times are faster at 30 seconds for a full cure, while UV lamps require longer exposure. If you are running a professional salon setup in Canada, LED is the more practical choice for service speed.
