Gel Nail Polish Biography
Bio Sculpture Nail Polish is a fast drying, stable and durable. Our polishes contain double density fluorinated colour pigment to match our Colour Gels and will never need more than two coats. Not wearing Bio Sculpture Gel on your nails? Brighten up your natural nails with Bio Sculpture nail polish. You can use the nail polish as a temporary colour change over your existing colour gels, until you desire to return to your original gel colour. Bio Sculpture nail polishes are available in all the colours of our colour gels. All nail polishes are toluene free, DBP and formaldehyde free.In the last few months I have got in to getting my nails done. I have never paid for manicures before and I never thought they were worth the money, however I had found my nails were getting weaker and the effort of polishing my nails most evenings was starting to do my head in (i find chipped nails at work, and in general, are gross and tacky) so I decided to look at other options.
First I tried gel nail extensions and acrylics... (yuck!) the only way I found them to be bearable was to cover them up with polish! Then I tried Shellac a couple of times - I had colours Rubble and Iced Cappuccino as pictured below:The application for Shellac is pretty quick - using a normal nail varnish brush, which i think it is easier for the nail technician. However, I found this only lasted 1 - 2 weeks and one application already had problems with the polish not being properly stuck down as I walked out! This started to really frustrate me - where was this 3 week manicure that people talked about?Bio Sculpture Gel was created and founded in 1988 by Elmien Scholtz (then Greeff) after many years of searching for the ideal nail system. “Bio Sculpture started due to a need in the nail industry.” says Elmien, ”After finishing my CIDESCO training in Stellenbosch, South Africa, I was a little disappointed that I, as a nail technician, had nothing more to offer my clients than heavy acrylics to lengthen and strengthen nails and chipping nail polish for colour.” Bio Sculpture Clear Gel, still the crown product in the range, was the first gel ever created. Training of nail technicians and distribution to salons in South Africa started soon after its creation.
By 1992 Bio Sculpture Gel had 4 Colour Gels to add to the range. This was also when Bio Sculpture was first introduced to the international market and was export to Australia.
Since then several other treatment gels have been developed and introduced to the market, for example S-Gel, Free Edge Gel and UV Top Coat Gel. The Colour Gel ranges now boast more than 150 non-chip colour gels.
Elmien Scholtz who is still actively involved with Bio Sculpture Gel continues to research and develop Bio Sculpture’s products and brand on a daily basis.Bio Sculpture’s core product is Nail Gel: Clear Base Gels, Strengthening Treatment Gels and a range of Colour Gels.
Clear Base Gels are applied directly onto the natural nails to give stability (less breakage) with the advantage of flexibility.
Strengthening Treatment Gels are used to either extend short nails or build strong natural nails.
Colour Gels are used as a “permanent nail polish”APPLICATION: I opted for "Berry Medley," a nice bright fuchsia. The application was basically the same as a regular manicure: base gel, colour gel and top coat, the only difference was that each step had to cure under the UV light. Unlike the application of the gel nail, there was no filing of the nail needed.
RESULT: My nails looked amazing! They were not Snooki chunky and looked really natural. The colour was bright and shiny and it went almost three weeks without a single chip. I even experimented by painting over my gel with regular nail polishes (see picture) and the gel is so resilient that the polish or the acetone didn't hurt it a bit. To match your gel exactly, you can purchase its nail polish twin by Bio Sculpture. Towards week three, I did notice some bubbling but by that time my nails had grown considerably and it was time for removal anyways.
REMOVAL: Bio Gel is a soak-off product (if you do this, make sure your salon knows the difference between the different types of gel products). First, the gel was filed a tiny little bit without the file actually touching the nail itself. Then individual nails were soaked for 10 minutes in Bio Sculpture Gel Remover to break down the bonding of the gel to the nail. The gel then easily peels off your nail and voilà! Easy.
COST: My application cost $55 at my salon here in Vancouver (Bling Nails & Beauty Lounge). The removal is $10 if added on top of a regular manicure.
