Here is some more information on BIAB.

You may have heard or The Gel Bottle’s ‘Builder in a Bottle’ gel as a cure-all for short, brittle nail woes, but what actually is it and how does it work?

Your questions answered

‘Builder in a Bottle’, also referred to as just ‘Builder’ or ‘BIAB’, is a type of gel developed by makers The Gel Bottle to nourish and strengthen nails and promote nail growth. It can be used as a replacement to hard gel extensions or acrylic extensions as it’s used on the natural nail and makes them stronger, allowing them to grow past the client’s natural breaking point. It’s also vegan and cruelty-free!

Some technical bits

BIAB can be used as a base coat, meaning it goes straight onto the nail bed and bonds to it under UV or LED curing, effectively adding another layer to the nail to strengthen it. We can even use two to three coats on weaker nails, which can make the nail virtually indestructible! It can be used as a colour as well – all the Builder gels are n**e tones – or covered with a gel colour (and nail art!) if the client wants the strength of Builder but not the colour.

Because it’s a soft gel, Builder gel is removed easily with a soak off, whereas acrylic and hard gel need to be filed to be removed. Builder is also ‘breathable’, which is great for those with weaker nails as cuticle oil can pe*****te and reach the nail bed. The Gel Bottle’s website states that it won’t chip or lift – again because it’s a strengthened gel. It increases flexibility on brittle nails which means they’re much less likely to snap.

One of the hottest in UK nail industry at the moment is Biab Gel.
