Amazing!
"I am so happy I finally found a hypoallergenic product to use! I only had a very mild reaction. Just a little swelling that lasted 24 hours. So excited about trying more products from HONA!!"
Includes:
- TrueBond: HONA's multi-purpose bonder. TrueBond can be used after your prep for extra adhesion.
- TrueBuild: HONA's classic, strong hypoallergenic Builder Gel.
- SuperShine Topcoat: One of the glossiest top coats available in the UK.
- Gel Polish: A seasonal shade of our hypoallergenic Gel Polish.
TrueBuild is our strongest builder gel to date. Formulated for strength, structure, and performance. This traditional-style builder has zero flex and doesn’t require a base coat. Perfect for sculpting with control and building long-lasting, durable overlays.
We colour-match shades across the HONA range, but minor differences in tone or coverage may be visible between systems. This is due to the differing viscosities and formulation properties of each product type and is expected within professional gel systems.

How To Use
- Apply directly to the natural nail or over a cured layer of TrueBond.
- Apply a paper-thin layer and cure for 60 seconds (or 99 seconds on low heat mode).
- Optional: lay down a thin wet slip layer to help guide your builder bead.
- Use a liner brush to guide product into the cuticle and side walls.
- Tip the client’s hand upside down to help create an even apex.
- Cure fully, remove the inhibition layer with IPA if refining, or apply top coat/colour directly.
- For removal: debulk 80–90% before soaking in acetone for 10 minutes. Use a cuticle knife to gently remove residue and smooth with a buffer

I’ve recently started using the
"I’ve recently started using the HONA starter kit and I’m honestly so impressed. The builder gel applies beautifully, it self-levels really nicely and gives me full control during application. The consistency is just perfect, not too runny, not too thick, which makes the whole process smooth and enjoyable. And the colour… absolutely stunning. It looks so clean and professional on the nail. One thing that really surprised me was the bond. I’ve never worked with such a thin layer before, but it performs incredibly well. It feels lightweight, but the adhesion is amazing. Overall, I’m genuinely in love with these products. You can really feel the quality in every step of the application. I’ll definitely be continuing to use HONA in my work and I can’t wait to explore more from the brand. Highly recommend ✨"

"A fantastic kit and a must have for the HONA conversion course. I love that you don’t know which gel colour you will receive, it’s nice to have a surprise! I got ‘believe’ and may not have chosen it otherwise. It’s now my favourite colour!"
