GEL SYSTEMS Product Information BASES | BUILDERS | STRUCTURE GEL | GEL COLOUR | GLITTER GEL Gel Sytems BASE COATS | BUILDER GEL | STRUCTURE GEL | GEL DESIGN | TOP COATS We believe nail products are prescriptive. Just like skincare, it is unlikely that one product will bring out the best results for everyone. All nail types have different needs. Therefore we have a variety of base coats and nail systems to choose from. If necessary it is important to try various product options on clients to know what works best for them and their natural nail type. A thorough client consultation should be completed to determine which base coat is most suitable foryour client. The condition of the natural nail must be considered, as well as clients daily routine and lifestyle. Any previous nail irritations or allergies must be noted too. GEL PRODUCTS • ALL ABOUT THE BASE • GET A GRIP • RUBBER UP • GIVE ME STRENGTH • BUILD IT • BUILD ME UP A variety of our base coats are available in clear and cover shades. Clear gel products always have more strength than cover shades. Therefore we would always recommend using a thin clear base layer for any clients who are prone to lifting. A thorough dry nail prep and scrub with PREP & DEHYDRATE must be completed before any base coat application. All free edges must be capped and cured for the correct duration in our lamp for best results.

We recommend using AATB for toes or on strong nails as a Gel Polish Service. ALL ABOUT THE BASE is our original base gel, recommended for strong nail or toe nails. Apply AATB very thinly using scrubbing motions, cap free edges completely, and cure for 30 seconds only. AATB contains a very small safe % of HEMA. Easily soaks off within seven minutes.
