Gel Nails

find decent glitter is not easy - there are so many bad ones, that will literally ruin your nails. I've had it before, so now I am very areful as to what I use on my nails. this company sells awesome glitter - I found some glitters I could not locate elsewhere. but mostly, they are of good quality and I can experiment on my nails without having any reservations. They are also doing a quick dispatch, so you get your stuff quickly. I recommend them

A wide range of colors for selection with perfects shining. Durable and worth the price I paid for it. My friends have same opinions, too. Will buy more later.

I've been having Bio Sculpture Nails done for quite a while now but I just wanted to do a post about them as they provide a much better, and healthier, alternative to nail extensions.

I'd been having nail extensions for many years, but stopped having them after a bit of a nightmare on a trip to the Dominican Republic. Basically, I managed to snap my nail about 2/3 of the way down, drawing blood and causing an awful lot of pain. I, for obvious reasons, didn't have nail glue with me and our hotel was on a resort which you couldn't leave. I tried the local shops and the best I could find was a plaster and some super glue. Hoping this worked I tried both, but the glue just melted and the plasters were constantly falling off after getting wet from the sea. To make matters worse, it happened very early on in the holiday.

I haven't touched nail extensions since, the problem with my nails is they always snap. Someone told me about Bio Sculpture nails and I decided to look into them as I don't like having really short nails. They basically apply a gel - not acrylic - to the nail which strengthens and promotes growth. Cured under a UV lamp, the treatment takes about an hour and you can choose from a wide range of colours or a french manicure.

The therapist firstly shapes your nails, primes them and then begins applying the gel. Each hand is left to cure under the UV lamp for around 2 minutes and a final sealer and top coat is applied at the end of the treatment.

As I said, I've been getting them done for a while now and have managed to get a bit of length on them, but I generally wouldn't let them get any longer.

They are very long lasting and I generally need an infill every 2-3 weeks. I definitely prefer them to my extensions!

I have had both Gel and Acrylic nails and currently are having Acrylics in the Salon i've been with for the past year, i have to say i have found them much better than the gel nails i had and in fact the gels were dreadful and taking them off was an ordeal as we couldnt soak them.. Personally i prefer my extensions now but i think i depends on a good nail tech as well as the product i think it depends on what suits but i think mine are stronger and last and look soo much better than the gels which did damage my nails so its not always acrylics that ruin them i love them now :)

Beautiful gel nails with lots of lovely colours and the finish and shine is fantastic. All products used are from gogel nails. www.gogelnails.co.uk. Really liked the nails and prefer them to acrylic nails.

Bio-Sculpture nails are the best. No dust, no fumes, no filing to get the nails off- they simply soak off. Durable, they don't feel painful and as they are strong yet slightly flexible (they feel hard to the touch and don't bend), they won't rip off. Brilliant!

I would actually recommend Acrylic instead of Gel for the reason Acrylic are more durable and stronger. Gel can break easier than Acrylic. I don't usually get french manicure I get glitter tips every few weeks when I go. I love getting my nails done and chosing different colours, I hate having the nails off. Downside of having Acrylic or Gel nails is that when you take them off your nails are so fragile and soft but are definitely worth the money.

Worth the price, if cared for are long lasting and look good until removal or re-fill.

I highly recommend getting Gel Nails acrylics. I would never go back to just painting my nails or plain acrylics. They look so real and natural. All my friends noticed and loved them. They are durable and don't stop you from doing every day things. Whats stopping you?

I would love to wear acrylic or gel nails. However, I have been to two separate salons and tried both acrylic and gel nails and the same thing has happened. Both salons offered to do them again and try different coloured tip (as white and natural were made by two different manufacturers, the same thing happened again.

Both said my nails could be too oily. I have no idea if this is true and would like to know more about oily nails - can anyone help?
