How to Use Egoist Beauty BIAB Gel in a Bottle (HEMA-free)

Preparation:

 

Clean and file your nails to your desired shape.

Gently push back cuticles and buff the nail surface lightly to remove shine.

Clean nails with a nail cleanser or alcohol wipe to remove oils and residue.

Primer (Optional):

 

If you have oily nails or lifting issues, apply a thin layer of nail primer for added adhesion. Let it dry completely before applying BIAB.

 

 

Application:

 

Apply a thin layer of the BIAB gel as a base coat, similar to a regular gel polish. Start with a thin coat to avoid thickness at the cuticle.

Cure under a UV lamp for 2 minutes or an LED lamp for 60 seconds.

Building the Nails:

 

Apply a slightly thicker layer to create the nail’s structure. Start at the center and spread the gel toward the edges to create a smooth curve (this helps build strength).

Cure under a UV lamp for 2 minutes or an LED lamp for 60 seconds.

Repeat for a second layer if more thickness or strength is desired, curing each layer fully.

Shaping (Optional):

 

After curing, you can lightly file and shape if needed, then remove dust.

Top Coat:

 

Seal with a gel Egoist Beauty no-wipe top coat for added shine and durability.

Cure under a UV or LED lamp as the top coat instructions require.

Finishing Touch:

 

Wipe nails with a cleanser to remove any sticky residue.

Apply Egoist Beauty cuticle oil for hydration and a polished finish.
