Biogel strengthening of natural nails: reviews

Currently, few can boast healthy and strong nails. The problems with fragility, delamination are familiar to many.

Biogel strengthening of natural nails is a procedure that allows not only to align and strengthen the nail plate, but also to increase the wearing time of the decorative coating, and a way to avoid chipping of the material after building. Some brands include camouflage biogel products.

Almost all companies producing gel varnishes also produce biogels (or biobase). Of course, the quality is different for everyone. But the masters have their favorite brands, proven over the years. Two of them will be discussed. The most famous and high-quality brands in Russia are the Formula Profi and Cody brands.

What materials can be strengthened nails

There are several ways to strengthen nails, and everything can be divided into three categories: acrylic strengthening, biogel strengthening and the use of fiberglass with glue.

In those days when there was no nail extension, silk was used to restore the nail plate, which was glued to the nail. Now this technology has been supplemented with biogel, which is used instead of glue.

If you need to slightly extend the nail, you can make an acrylic reinforcement. In this case, the silk protrudes slightly beyond the bed of the nail, forming a free edge. A cut piece of fabric is superimposed on the base, another layer of the base is applied on top and polymerized. Acrylic powder is applied to the dispersion and polymerized again. The nail is filed and covered with top gel or gel polish using conventional technology.

But the easiest way is to use biogel to strengthen natural nails.

What is a biogel

Some do not see much difference between gel polish and biogel. Indeed, the color coatings of these materials do not visually differ. That is, it is impossible to determine in appearance what material was used. This is different from building - gel and acrylic.

First of all, the biogel has a rubber base and is therefore more flexible. The nail experiences many mechanical influences when working at home, in the garden, in the office. And the harder the artificial coating, the more likely the occurrence of cracks and chips at the free edge. Biogel repeats all the movements of the nail and therefore does not break, but bends.

Loose nails are too flexible and soft to withstand gel polish for a long time. After three to four days, microcracks appear on the free edge, followed by peeling of the material and chips. Even if the master did everything well and correctly, gel polish will not be worn on such nails.

What to do? Many used to choose building. Of course, this is a very hard material. Nails will not bend and, as a result, will be worn for a long time. But another way appeared: strengthening with a biogel.

The technology of Formula Profi and Cody is slightly different. Let's consider them in more detail.

Formula Profi Royal French Biogel Nail Strengthening

The biomaterial system consists of a corrector base (color or camouflage), Bio French gel-paint, and a Bio Top adhesive coating.

The procedure for strengthening nails with biogel "Formula Profi":

1. After giving the desired shape to the free edge, the surface of the nails is buffed to a matte state.
2. The alcohol-based degreaser Profi Prep is applied.
3. At the end, the nail is treated with a Profi Bond primer.
4. The base-corrector of the selected color is applied. It cures 1.5-2 minutes. If the nail plate is very thin, the operation is repeated.
5. A smile is drawn by Bio French. It cures 1.5-2 minutes.
6. Apply Bio Top. 1-1.5 minutes are polymerized, after which the dispersion layer is removed.

It turns out a French manicure. If you don’t feel like doing it, you can use any gel polish instead of Bio French. After its polymerization, "Bio Top" is applied. Such a coating will last a long time.

Formula Pro biogel Nail Flex

If you need to not only strengthen, but also lengthen the nails, you need another biogel. It often happens that only one nail breaks. In order not to build up, which will then be difficult to remove, soluble materials from the Nail Flex system will help solve the problem. It will not work to increase the extreme length, but salon modeling can be done. This is an increase in the length of the free edge to two-thirds of the nail bed.

The order of operations:

1. Standard preparation of nails for extension (removal of gloss, degreasing "Profi Prep", primer on the tip of the free edge of "Profi Bond").
2. Setting paper forms.
3. Biogel Flesh Color is the substrate. The gel goes a little on the nail. Polymerization 1-2 minutes.
4. The dispersion is removed, the shape is removed and the substrate is sawn.
5. Nail Flex base is applied to the entire nail. Polymerization 1-2 minutes.
6. The formation of the structure with camouflage biogel. Polymerization 1-2 minutes.
7. Dispersion is removed. The nail is filed. It is polished.
8. White Nail Flex Biogel draws a white tip. Polymerization 1-2 minutes.
9. Nail Flex top gel secures the job. Polymerization 2-3 minutes.

Such biogel strengthening will allow you to grow your nails and use gel polishes in the future.

How to strengthen nails with Cody biogel

This biogel can be used to build or strengthen nails. It would be a mistake to think that Cody biogel replaces the base, as in Formula Profi. In this system, the application of the base is required. A layer of biogel is applied to it.

The procedure for strengthening the nail plate:

1. Buffs are removed from prepared nails, after which they are thoroughly degreased.
2. An acid-free primer is applied to the nails. It should dry.
3. Rubber Base is applied and polymerized. For a UV lamp, this is 2 minutes, and for LEDs - 30 seconds.
4. A drop of biogel from a jar is collected on the number 4 brush and distributed over the nail. Polymerization 1 minute.
5. You can apply any color gel polish in two layers with drying.
6. Finishing gel (top "Cody") is applied and polymerized for 2 minutes.

Technologists recommend a slightly different order for home nail strengthening with biogel under gel polish:

1. Remove the gloss from the nails and degrease them.
2. Application of an acid-free primer on the entire nail plate.
3. Application of biogel on the nail with rubbing movements with an extremely thin layer, polymerization.
4. Application of a drop of biogel to the middle of the nail and its distribution throughout the plate. After this, the nail should be turned over so that the biogel forms an even drop. This is about a minute. The butt is sealed at this time. Polymerization in the lamp.
5. Application of gel polish in two layers, polymerization.
6. Application of top gel, polymerization.
7. Dispersion removal.

Nail extension with Cody biogel

To lengthen nails with Cody biogel, you need to prepare them.

1. Remove shine and degrease.
2. Apply an acid-free primer, then a bonder.
3. Base application, polymerization.
4. Form setting.
5. Apply biogel to the desired length on the entire nail plate. Polymerization.
6. Application of the second layer, the formation of the structure by turning the hand. Polymerization.
7. Removal of variance and adjustment filed.
8. Topcoat, polymerization.
9. Dispersion removal.

This build-up is done with allergies to gel or acrylic.

Biogel strengthening: reviews

Both bases are highly praised by both masters and amateurs. Applied with a primer, and without a primer - the result is good. The base corrector has several camouflages, even with glitter. It turns out not only medical, but also a decorative coating. Base "Cody" fell in love with all the masters who tested it. Now even some do not use biogel: they make a drop of the base repeatedly - and the gel polish lasts for a month, allowing its nails to grow.

Biogels for building both brands were highly appreciated: they hold well, are easily filed, and can be easily removed. Now, many masters make clients strengthen nails with biogel, while customer reviews are enthusiastic.

Conclusion

All people are different, and the nail plates too. After the inspection, the master decides which preparation to choose for decorative gel polish. How to lengthen the nails. How to more reliably grow a natural length. If you go on time for correction, you can avoid many problems, and then you will not have to restore the nails. They will always delight their mistress.
