Our selection of soak-off builder gel has been created and tested by nail technicians, just like you, to ensure effortless application and fantastic results every time.
Not only does every ESG product have a self-levelling formulation and creamy consistency that makes it easy to use, but all our shades are also sure to impress with showstopping pigmentation.
With no primer or base coat required, these soak-off builder gels can be used alone or with a C Jel P polish over the top.

FAQs
What is soak-off builder gel?
Soak-off builder gel is similar to standard builder gels, but a full soak-off version.
This means only very minimal filing is required.
It still offers the same flawless finish, professional application, and choice of long-lasting shades.
How to use soak-off builder gel
There’s a wide range of professional builder gel brands that you can use in the UK, so we always recommend following the manufacturer’s directions for the best results.
We can provide directions for use for the CJP range of easy soak-off builder gel, ESG:
- Start by prepping the nails and applying a scrub layer of ESG.
- This layer then requires curing for 1-2 minutes using a UV lamp.
- Apply an additional 2/3 layers, curing in-between each coat.
- To remove, simply file down the layers and soak in pure acetone.

To remove CJP’s range of soak-off builder gel, ESG, simply file down the layers and soak in pure acetone.
Is soak-off builder gel bad for your nails?
When applied and removed professionally, builder gel can protect natural nails by creating a hard and strong surface.
Natural nail damage typically only occurs through improper application and removal, such as excessive filing. However, some builder gel formulas can also contain chemical ingredients that are known allergens, resulting in mild skin irritation and allergic reactions - especially if they’re used improperly and come into contact with skin.
This includes compounds like HEMA (Hydroxyethyl Methacrylate), TPO (Trimethylbenzoyl Diphenylphosphine Oxide), and DMPT (N,N-Dimethyl-p-toluidine).
To help avoid potential adverse effects of soak-off builder gel on the nails, we therefore recommend using formulas that are free from HEMA, TPO, and DMPT.
For your peace of mind, CJP’s range of easy soak-off builder gel doesn’t contain any of these potentially harmful chemicals linked to skin irritation.
