Any clear soak off gels compare to Bio?

[helenlovesnails]

Hi,

I use biosculpture clear gel for nno, but it is very expensive. Does anyone use a different brand clear gel that is comparable to bio?

I have tried lechat but not been 100% happy. any other brands?

thanks!

I am not 100% sure on the method of removal, just know they are gels suitable for NNO.

There is also Calgel - not sure on how they are removed either!

IBD do now do a soak off gel - french and colours. Only tried the black soak off which was ok, needed 3 coats for depth but cannot comment on the others.

ManiQ from Young Nails is a clear soak-off gel, I don't know how much Bio costs so don't know if ManiQ is cheaper, but it seems good value to me!!

Hi.
I have just looked at the gel you mentioned. I am still looking for a nice cover pink, what are they like ?

 

[nailpod]

soak off option i would go with calgel, mainly cos i have used so many other gels and found their products very good quality and in my country a tiny bit cheaper but without compromising the quality.

hi there,
i too use bio gel and love it but it is expensive! i have tried lechat (nobility)which is excellent as the top clear layer but i didnt get on with it when putting directly onto the natural nail

When I converted from Calgel to Le Chat I had a couple of cleints that lifted but after a couple of tweeks here and there its perfect, I love it over tips too, much stronger than other soak offs ( and MUCH cheaper !) get hold of angel finger, she's great at advising on Le Chat .

I did try Akzents but couldnt get on with it, too much lifting and too sticky !, but each to there own ! x

it just goes to show that we can expect to have a few issues when using a new gel because after a few weeks of teething problems i have no problems with Akzentz now at all...I have been using it for 2 years and have no lifting problems.

Maybe before giving up on a gel in the early stages it would be a good idea to seek assistance from the supplier.

I have just ordered this Amb, good to hear you are pleased with it. I love Calgel but am wanting to try another soak off french gel, just wish the Calgel french did not discolour so much. xx

I too have the expense problem with bio sculpture although i love the colours i just can't afford to use it anymore so I have found a new gel called gogel which has been made from the lady who first invented bio sculpture and apparently it is half the price and alot better in stregnth. I am doing the conversion in a week so I can let you know how i find it?
