So funny that you mention the sizing. The same goes for clothing. In America, I’m a M/L, which is like a triple X in Japan lol.
Great content as always paola
Thanks! Will keep it coming!
I have this set and loved it. Now I have an allergy and can’t use the gel because I need HEMA free. Dots Kokoist make a HEMA free version? I have another brand that is allergy safe but the tips pop off in 1-2 days
Pretty PPN!
What size were the tips? I'm thinking about trying them out!
Would you need to do primer or dehydrator before application? Using mega stick base instead of duo bond
Love the video!!! I need to get my hands on some of these
Yes! Very nice tips.
Would you recommend this system for an at home amateur trying to do their extensions, or a different system like Kiara Sky?
Kiara sky is terrible. Try enail couture or apres
Niice!
ok love the step by step my question is how long do you flash cure and how long for full cure?
Flash 10+ secs, full 30 secs.
@@PaolaPonceNails thanks
Does it last long enough for a refill?
Thanks for posting this! How do these compare to Apres?
Quality is great. They are not as sculpted as APRES.
Should you fill in the cuticle area with the mega stick base if you are using that instead of the bonding duo?
Small amount of either should do it.
Hi Paola, I'd like to purchase this! Do you still recommend the duo gel or the new mega stick for longer lasting adhesion? and can I use any gel polish on them?
Do I still need to apply primer on nails for them to last longer? Thank you :)
No primer needed. Use Mega stick base, much better adhesion. Use any color on top.
What to do if the sizing is off? How do you customize sizing for client?
Hi Paola, would you recommend a builder gel on top for extra strength? Or this should be strong enough? Thanx in advance
Should be strong enough. The strength comes from the tip and the adhesión of the gel underneath to the natural nail.
For those who are unable to soak products off, are you able to a tutorial of removing the gelip tips completely with an efile, with no soaking off?
Can I use Excel Builder gel instead of the Bonding duo? Will it adhere to the natural nail?
No. Duo is a 2 in 1, is a base and builder.
Excel does not have base gel and therefore will lift right off the natural nail. It needs to go over base gel.
Can these be filled or do you have to completely take them off each time?
Fill. I’ve filled all the versions I’ve used, including Apres.
Hi Paola, I’m going to buy a starter kit from Kokoist, do you have a discount code? I followed the link but didn’t notice any promo. Thank you for the videos, they’re great resources!
So their intro kit is already 19% off, so my 10% PPN10 code would not apply towards that purchase.
Can the beetle lamp be used to do the full cure or is it only powerful enough for the flash cure?
It will do an ok job if in a pinch (one time the power in the salon went out and had to use as it was cordless. The clients nails lasted 3 weeks, but not as shiny as usual. Which prob meant also all the gels in that service cured, but not to their potential kind-of-thing.
@@PaolaPonceNails Damn. I totally bought the beetle lamp as a cute, convenient, portable lamp to use for traveling, or on-the-go, or even at home when I have limited tabletop space (I'm a DIY-er), but now I'm wondering if I shouldn't have bothered. For how long do you recommend I cure for a full cure?
If you had to choose (and price wasn't an issue), gelip or apres?
I want to wear these clear, can you tell me the best way to remove the number on the underside? Thanks!
Hi, do you think I would have any issues using Bonding Duo with Apres tips?
Yes. Bonding duo is not the best to adhere. It will wear for about 10 days. The Apres gel adhesive is better... or you can hang tight as Kokoist is releasing a new adhesive gel called Mega Stick. Should work much better then bonding duo to adhere.
@@PaolaPonceNails Ok. Kokoist recommends the bonding duo with their own full coverage tips. So the Kokoist gelips only last about 10 days?
New Kokoist gel (Mega Stick) is coming. The current gels they have don’t adhere for long wear.
Can I use the Platinum bond II as the base coat before using the bonding duo as the builder to adhere the tip to my nail? Also, I couldn't really tell from the video but were you able to build an apex with this system or is it more to look like natural nails? Thank you! Love your videos about the Japanese soak offs. You articulate your words so well and make it easy for professionals and DIYers alike to understand.
Yes, you can definitely use PBII for base, then duo for Gelip. To build an Apex, I would recommend rolling the Gelip a bit to give it more of a curve, and use enough Duo so that you don’t have to press too hard down and flatten the Gelip.
Thanks for the feedback!
PS, I do recommend gently buffing the back tip w/ a sponge buffer or using bonder on the back for it to last longer.
@@PaolaPonceNails One more thing. Do you feel like the nails are bendy at all after you are done with the full set?
Cat YJ Smith No, I do not.
Mine keep popping off a couple days after application, any idea what might be causing this?
Mine too!!
Hi paola , how long do they last on your nails ?
Switch over to the new “mega stick base” from Kokoist for 3+wear. Paolaponcenails.com/Kokoist
@@PaolaPonceNails instead of using bonding duo in a bottle as base use the mega stick base ?
Correct. More flexible and so adheres better to the natural nail and Gelip.
@@PaolaPonceNails tysm :)
how do you soak off? they are really difficult for me to soak them off
What happend if we use 70% alcohol? 😢
you may get lifting because of the amount of water in it.
