    Why is Light Elegance HEMA Free? While many brands use it for adhesion and lowering costs, we avoid it along with HEA and IBOA to drastically lower the risk of allergies. Small molecular sized monomers like HEMA are known to penetrate the skin more easily than our state-of-the-art formulations high in premium oligomers, cause irritation and often lead to nail allergies.
    At Light Elegance, we prioritize quality and safety. We manufacture products from scratch here in Redmond, Oregon with high-quality ingredients to minimize allergic responses for industry safety. We believe, What's Inside Matters!

      But im still not marinating my skin in poison for several minutes just to do something that is unnecessary. Nails dont need to breathe. I purposefully use sheers and nudes, so i can see if a problem is forming. So i'll continue to do what is best for my body, and you keep telling your clients that they need a soakoff, so you csn sell them an additional service.
      When i want a nail tech's opinion, i'll go to a salon. Toodles!🤣

    I just recently bought a clear builder gel, but it is my first time using it, so I guess it’s not going to be perfect right away because I had some issues with flooding on the sides of my nails. However, I have been doing nails for four years so with each new product it takes time.

    • @audriiiiroberts3030
      @audriiiiroberts3030 8 місяців тому +10

      Get a super duper thin nail brush, and lightly brush the sides with it before curing. Also, try holding your finger upside down for like six or seven seconds before curing. I think it brings the gel into the center of your nail
      I’m not a tech though, these are just things I’ve learned watching UA-cam videos. I’ve been doing builder gel for almost a year now

    • @LightEleganceHQ
      @LightEleganceHQ  8 місяців тому +5

      Yes, each viscosity and gel can behave differently and have a learning curve! For quick self-leveling gels, try applying only 1-2 nails at a time and curing before moving on to the others (thumbs should always be done separately). You can also flash cure as well!

    Sorry for the ultranOob question! Is the slip layer just a thin layer of builder? Is it cured? Do you use primer over the old layer or just over the naked nail bit (or skip altogether for a fill)? TIA pros 😊

    • @LightEleganceHQ
      @LightEleganceHQ  3 місяці тому +2

      A slip layer is a thin application of uncured gel that is placed before the "bulk" of your product is added to help the builder gel self level faster and move into place. Builder gel should always be applied to a properly prepped nail and we always recommend using a bonding agent for best adhesion and longer wear.

    According to a few women i follow on YT, one being a nail tech since the 80s and who has her own website and sells her own nail products. From acrylic to gel. And provides classes. She said that you don't have to soak off your nails after 3-4 fills. You dont have to soak them off, at all. If they were done correctly, theres no need to soak them off. Its just a ploy to get more money out of clients.

    • @LightEleganceHQ
      @LightEleganceHQ  4 місяці тому

      This can be true for some clients, especially if they are wearing a durable hard gel such as our Lexy Line! However, with a soakable builder gel such as this JimmyGel, they are porous and depending on the client's lifestyle and natural nails, the gel can break down overtime (exposure to water, chemicals, acetone overtime etc) and if you start to see any lifting, pockets or more wear, it can be time to freshen up with a new set.

      If you don't have a dust collector, we would recommend wearing a mask while filing, especially if you are working on clients all day long.

    i can’t get my biab to stay on the ends of my nails. after a day or two it starts to peel up or chip at the ends and i’m not sure what i’m doing wrong. any tips?

    • @LightEleganceHQ
      @LightEleganceHQ  10 місяців тому +1

      There are a couple of reasons this could be happening but often times it comes down to proper prep of the natural nail, the quality or age of your curing lamp and application thickness. You also want to make sure you cap the free edge of the nail! For prep, we have a Perfect Prep video here that shows our recommended prep with JimmyGel: ua-cam.com/video/F12ZjGhN0kQ/v-deo.html
      You should also make sure you are not cleansing the nail with a cleanser that also have fragrances or dyes that can affect adhesion: ua-cam.com/video/E1R0UhrC1ew/v-deo.html
      Lastly, you can check the curing abilities of your lamp. We have a video about how to do this here: ua-cam.com/video/pgDUCNMQ9Co/v-deo.html
      You can also use a bonding agent such as our Tack bonding agent product that acts as a double sided sticky tape when cured to ensure adhesion for those prone to lifting! We hope this helps☺

    Why do you only recommend 2-3 fills? Genuinely curious as I'm learning to do fills now (did my first today)!

    • @LightEleganceHQ
      @LightEleganceHQ  3 місяці тому

      Congrats on your first fill! It really depends on the client and how hard they are on their nails or if they are in and out of liquid a lot which can eventually wear down soak off gels. Most importantly, we are trying to avoid lifting so if you take good care of your nails and do your aftercare you can most likely get away with more fills! If you are wearing a hard gel such as our Lexy Line, you can fill endlessly as long as you look out for lifting or pockets since hard gels are more resistant to water/chemicals etc

    Hey whenever i put builder gel on my nail its remains sticky as if it never cured even after fully curing it. Because sometimes i need to file of to make the builder gel base smooth but i cant because it doesn’t cure fully. Can you suggest me something for that?

    • @LightEleganceHQ
      @LightEleganceHQ  17 днів тому

      It is very important to ensure that curing lamp is high quality and is properly curing your gels! Insufficient curing can often lead to nail allergies. A slightly "tacky" inhibition layer is normal after curing most builder gels, however if you are not able to cleanse the nail and finish file, than your gel may not be fully cured. You can learn how to test your lamp here: ua-cam.com/video/pgDUCNMQ9Co/v-deo.htmlsi=h0PYIo9fFYq6yDem and please take a look at our Chemist Corner playlist with Head Chemist and Co-Owner of Light Elegance, Jim McConnell, to learn more about proper curing. ua-cam.com/play/PLBoP3VgPpPtK94YauibP5rc26KfcG0ZDy.html&si=R_iBofFCfCa5mWtL

    So since this is builder gel and not hard gel I am confused how your nails are so hard? When I use builder gel my nails actually become even softer than they were to begin with. I don’t know what I could be doing wrong- Ive tried different brands and it’s the same every time - please help 😅

    • @LightEleganceHQ
      @LightEleganceHQ  8 місяців тому +1

      Great question! There are essentially two types of builder gels, soak-off (typically a builder gel in a bottle such as this one, our JimmyGel) or hard builder gels such as our Lexy Line in a pot that needs to be filed off for removal. Various clients need a different builder gel based on their nail types and lifestyle. If you have only tried builder gels in a bottle, you might give a hard builder gel a try to support your nail type and lifestyle! Take a look at this blog to learn more about the different options available! www.lightelegance.com/blogs/news/hard-gels-or-soak-off-which-structure-gel-is-best-for-you-lexy-line-vs-jimmygel

Needing to pass multiple exams and earning an actual certificate. Not to mention the people who work as a nail tech and use that as “proof” of their knowledge, while being uneducated with the 10 day 1-2 hour a day classes they had taken on basic application from whoever had the lowest rate.

    • @LightEleganceHQ
      @LightEleganceHQ  8 місяців тому

      Yes, exactly! This technique is so helpful as it speeds up the self-leveling properties of the gel and helps you work the dollop of gel down the nail. It also minimizes finish filing since it self levels over the nail beautifully with this technique!

      @LightEleganceHQ  2 місяці тому +1

      Thank you! If you are referring to the "slip layer" mentioned, it is a thin layer of gel that you leave uncured before applying your dollop of gel to create the apex/structure. The slip layer helps the gel self level faster!

    Why do you recommend 2-3 fills before starting fresh? Is it to prevent lifting?

    • @LightEleganceHQ
      @LightEleganceHQ  8 місяців тому +1

      This is mostly preference, as long as the product is still adhered and there is no lifting or pockets. Because JimmyGel is a soak off gel, it is more porous than our Lexy Line hard gels, so a fresh set may be needed if a client is harder on their nails! It's always important to properly inspect the integrity of the product when filling each service!
