Watch BIAB infill video here • The Gel Bottle Inc BIA... Rubber Base Coat, BIAB 20 & Extreme Shine Top Coat from Www.thegelbottle.com Cuticle Oil - www.cjpnailsystems.com
It should be illegal for you to have a natural apex like that :) Great video, thanks ! I find using a fine dotting tool or a detail brush after application will give you a closer cuticle /sidewall application but either way they look lovely
Hi there! I've been watching your videos and they are FAB - Just what I needed. I just wanted to ask how you take off Gel Polish on top of BIAB as BIAB is a soak off... Do you just file the Gel Polish off or soak it? If you soak how o you do so without soaking the BIAB? x
Kia Stewart I’ve never used it over a gel colour - Always under. I apply 2-3 coats of this BIAB then refine & file if necessary then go straight in with my gel colour then top coat. This product soaks off easily the same way you would with gel polish.
Hi, so when infilling why do you use base, biab, top coat then refine but when it's just an all over nail overlay you refine after the biab? Good videos thank you x
Rose Norton Hi Rose, I dont always use the rubber top coat after applying Biab, I just find it gives me a little extra strength on my nails when i need it, its acetone resistant too so gives me that extra assurance that my nails wont get too ruined after using acetone when working on clients ect. Its not always necessary to use it if you dont need to. Hope this helps.xx
Really good video. After applying, curing and filing the final coat of BIAB what do you use to cleanse the nail in prep for a top coat or gel colour. Also if you are going to apply gel colour do you cleanse then apply base coat, colour and top coat? Xxx
Amelia Gillespie I use acetone to cleanse the nail after filing ready for topcoat/gel colour. Its not necessary to use a base coat before gel colour, just make sure there is a rough enough surface for the gel colour to adhere to. If my application was good & no finish filing is required I will not bother cleansing, leave the tacky layer on & just go straight in with topcoat or gel colour. Hope this helps. Xx
Warrendoe It can be used on longer nails yes, alot of my clients stay around the length in this video so have never really tested on longer length. If you build using the correct structure/apex then i cant see many problems occurring 😊
@@Sheffieldnails can you name the ratio of the word in correlation to the length? The longer there mail, at what point of the mail bed does the apex need to be?
The rubber base is thicker. You can use as a base coat for brittle nails. It is also rhe recommended base coat if you’re using TGB white and clear BIAB, and TGB Gel Pot. The 2 in 1 is a base coat if you’re only doing gel polish application.
Hi Lisa, If i am not applying a colour, only the top coat. Do i still need to file the BIAB 20? IF i run out of top coat, would the BIAB 20 be non wipe as well if i was to finish off with it?
Karen CMBF Hi! If you’re happy with your application there is no need to finish file or refine, you can go ahead & apply topcoat. BIAB does have a tacky layer so would definitely need a topcoat. Xx
Kimmiwin I’ve never had a client go past 3 weeks whilst wearing this gel as they’re nail biters & need regular maintenance. They’re always in good condition at 3 weeks though if thats any help? I wouldn’t recommend going 4 weeks though. Xx
Nails By Lisa Thank you.. Which would you say is best under the gel colour ?.. Biab or rubber base & top? Just trying to find ways for gel to last longer. I love this product though x
I think it depends on the strength required by the client - I have a few clients who have BIAB With colour over & get good results from that whereas others just need rubber base with colour & get the strength they require from that & have no problems. Xx
Rebecca Dabell You would need to have proof of training/qualifications to be able to purchase these products as they are for professional use only. I trained with Nail Harmony to gain my qualifications.
Laura Ke If the length of the nail requires an apex then you can build one - I didnt bother as my nails were fairly short so i didnt feel it was necessary. X
Nails By Lisa ok thx I think I may buy 1 botlle off biab and give it a try . I do now gel and rubberbase but they say that biab is stronger than a normal rubberbase so that would be a positive point for me!
Katrianna Rezende Hi, Sorry i dont have Teddy - My clients prefer 20 & 18. I think theres loads of pictures & comparisons in The Gel Bottle facebook group though 👌🏼 xx
Hi Lisa ! Really helpful video just wondered I thought gel is sticky til You have applied topcoat what do you use to remove any bits after filing the gel before top coat or colour ?
Isabella Paton Hey 👋 After filing i remove any dust by wiping over with acetone. I also remove the sticky layer with a quick wipe over with acetone before filing. Xx
Cheryl Oldford These are super easy to remove. I wrap in foil with cotton pads soaked in acetone for approx 15 mins - comes off very easily & pretty much all in one piece so not much scraping. Make sure you file the surface to remove any top gel before wrapping. Xx
Clara Knott 1 min 17 seconds! Clearly says cure for 30 seconds!!!!! If you only want to see just one nail, then just watch one nail!! You’ve made the same comments before!
