Hey everyone! Thank you so much for watching. I get so many questions about Builder Gel so hopefully this answers some of those for you!😊 Let me know if you have any requests for future videos! Don't forget to Subscribe! 💜
I really loved the video so clearly explained. In terms of the clear biab if you were using the white biab and just that what would you use on top to seal it ? I know you have to use the rubber base. But just sealing it ?
Use a 100/120 grit file to remove the top coat and colour, wipe with acetone then depending how long you have had the builder gel on for you can infill and apply colour or go straight in with colour and top coat! 😊💕
Great tutorial....if you choose to have a natural look initially and just put a clear top coat on.....what do you do when you want to change and add a color polish?
Thank you lovely! 😊 You would need to file the top coat off and refine the builder gel, infill the builder then wipe and buff so the infilled area is nice and smooth, wipe again then apply your chosen gel colour & top coat 😊 Hope that helps! 💜
I just started doing this stuff I purchased Beetles brand base, builder and top coat from Amazon and the builder gel didn't set until I put something over it. I don't know if that's right or not.
It'll grow out just like a gel polish. You can fill in the gap & recure then file down. You don't "need" to take it off unless it lifts from the natural nail at all (water & debris will get underneath & cause damage).
Hi Millie! it’s from The Gel Bottle - you do need to be a licensed tech to purchase but if you are looking for something for home use check out Aimeili Builder Gel - I have some videos on their products, you can find it on Amazon and it’s super affordable 💕
@@NailTheBasics thank you so much , I’ve managed to find the one you suggested , I get my nails done professionally and it’s becoming a fortune :) thank you
Hi thanks for tips, dont you use dehydrator/primer and base gel before applying Biab?

Have you tired to soak off clear BIAB?
Yes! Clear BIAB is file off rather than soak off, I file more than usual but still soak aswell 😊
so helpful! do you have a tutorial for the prep of the nail? filing, cuticle cutting, shaping. This is what I struggle with the most!

Hey Ciara 😊 You can just use Extreme Shine Top Coat to seal in builder gels 💜
Can i put bonding before applying BIAB? or would they lift?
Helpful thank you. I have an request: can you make a video about how to remove BIAB
Sure, this is on my list! 💜
Can you put biab over tips?
Great video thanks but what if you want to change the gel colour paint without removing the biab nail I get bored of colours quickly 🙈🤣

@@NailTheBasics thanks so much!! 🥰💕🥰
Where u buy this brand please
Great to see, what colour polish do you wear on your on nails? It doesn't look like lady builder. I am very curious🥰
It is Lady BIAB but it's been on for a couple of weeks here and has changed colour slightly! 💜
@@NailTheBasics ok thanks, it looks really good 👌
Is the builder gel as 'good' as the biab, I see alot people have the biab recently? X
Builder gel is BIAB (Builder in a bottle) 😊
@NailTheBasics hi! On the biab site they say that you need a rubber base before the clear biab.. I don't understand!
What lamp do you recommend?
wow these are great love the colours, another great video xx
Ow long do you cure the base, gel and top coat for?
is it safe to use your efile instead of a buffer? or is it too soft?

@@NailTheBasics It definitely helps, thanks so much for replying!! 😊😊
Hi! If you want to infill the gel, when do you file your nails in shape? Before or after applying the gel? 😊
Hey! Before applying the gel, this video should help! 😊 ua-cam.com/video/6AVKyGUE9tw/v-deo.html

Welke kleur heb je zelf op de nagels
How do you prep tha nail bed?
I’ve been doing it wrong. Thank you for the help x
This is really helpful, thank you 😊
Glad it was helpful! You're so welcome 💜
Thanks for sharing!
Hi! Love your videos so much, I’m just starting out! How many times would you infill builder gel? Xx
Aw thank you! I only ever infill 2 or 3 times to avoid it getting too thick and to check the health of the nails 💜
@@NailTheBasics Awh thanks so much 🥰🥰
How long do you cure for and do you use a low heat.? X
Low heat mode for 99 seconds 😊 x
I just started doing this stuff
I purchased Beetles brand base, builder and top coat from Amazon and the builder gel didn't set until I put something over it. I don't know if that's right or not.
You need a uv light
BIAB is the same like gel ??
yes
yes, its a type of gel, it has a thicker and stronger consistency 😊
You can't teach someone how to use a product on a plastic nail. You either need a practice hand or a real one. Anyone could just cover a plastic nail.
How long can you leave the builder gel on before you completely have to remove it?
It'll grow out just like a gel polish. You can fill in the gap & recure then file down. You don't "need" to take it off unless it lifts from the natural nail at all (water & debris will get underneath & cause damage).
I like to completely soak off after infilling a couple of times to keep an on eye the natural nail health & keep the nails nice and fresh 💕
Where did you get your BIAB gel from as I’m struggling to find it
Hi Millie! it’s from The Gel Bottle - you do need to be a licensed tech to purchase but if you are looking for something for home use check out Aimeili Builder Gel - I have some videos on their products, you can find it on Amazon and it’s super affordable 💕
@@NailTheBasics thank you so much , I’ve managed to find the one you suggested , I get my nails done professionally and it’s becoming a fortune :) thank you
What do you call these plastic practice nails ?
swatch sticks or practise sticks 😊
Thank you, very helpful
Glad it was helpful! 💜
can any LED light be used for these builders to cure?
I believe 48w is recommended, I also used to use a 32w lamp from shellac which cured it with no problems 😊 x
@@NailTheBasics thank you so much!
