PRODUCTS

BIAB and Cover Nude Builders are a range of soak off gel builders that are ideal for sculpting and tip extensions. They can also be used as base coats, as they are an all-in-one primer and base.

It’s a base coat that is flexible and bends together with the nail. Rubber Base is designed to give extra strength to flaky, brittle, thin or splitting nails.

It’s a strong top coat, ideal for encapsulating chunky glitter, building the last layer of nail extensions (for filing purpose if nails are intended to be left opaque nude), or to simply finish off gel manicures (apply a thicker layer and allow it to self-level before curing).

It’s a base coat with added primer, used for regular gel manicures, soaks off in less than 10 minutes.

It’s a ‘non-wipe’ top coat with a long lasting shine and a glass effect, designed to last 4+ weeks.

Rubber Base is designed to give extra strength to flaky and thin nails, while 2in1 Regular Base is for normal nails.

METHODS OF APPLICATION

Our gel polish is highly pigmented and you can achieve a full coverage with only one coat, but for best results we recommend two.

We only recommend acetone because it removes oil, dust and dehydrates the nail bed in preparation of base coat application. It’s best used to achieve long lasting results. Any products like ‘scrub-fresh’ or ‘prep-n-wipe’ will cause lifting.

Yes, but only over BIAB or Cover Nude Base to add bulk.

Yes, you can, by applying a thin layer on natural nails or tips.

The TGB lamp has been optimised for use with TGB products ensuring 100% guaranteed curing. Using another manufacturers lamp can risk under curing, leading to possible allergy and may invalidate your insurance, please check with your insurer.

The Gel Bottle Inc lamp, produced in conjunction with SunUV is 48 Watts and has a 99sec low heat setting to minimise heat spike as well as the exclusive addition of back-wall bulbs to ensure tips are 100% cured. Most importantly, the TGB exclusive all-white design looks gorgeous in any salon and oozes professionalism and a high-tech, highly pleasurable customer experience from start to finish.
