English term or phrase: forming gel [ gel modelador]
Hey folks,

My client would like to get "forming gel" translated into as many forms as possible.
I have come up with " gel modelador", but my moment of brilliance seems to have shaded away.

Will appreciate any suggestions.

"XXX Forming Gel is a liquid styling gel that is perfect for firm hold and control while delivering maximum volume, texture and shine."

Thanks!
Bertha

gel escultora


Explanation:

I alsothought gel is a femenine noun, but if it is used in masculine form, then you can change it to the masculine.
