Hi all this is my first post........looking for advice and opinions!

Ok I was trained using NSI Attraction L & P and UV Balance Gels, but I have just purchased some IBD French Extreme as I want to make the change to gel for good.

Now I liked the Attraction but I was dissapointed with the Balance, I found the pink and clear sculpting gel really runny and the white gel really claggy and thick, did anyone else find this?

Anyway I'm very excited about the IBD kit coming, just wondering what experiences you guys have with it, cause i'm doing my mates bridal nails with it this week, err no pressure!

Love Jan
 
I have the extreme gels from IBD. The colors are great. The two pinks are gorgeous and the white is really bright white.

My problems with this set are: 4 minute cure times make my application too long and I have tons of troubles with the white curing all the way through, don't know why.

I hope you have good luck with this set. I like IBD, but this set has had me pulling out my hair. Please let me know if you have good luck with it.

One more tip: the IBD gel seems to self-level a little quick for me. I found that if I turned the hand over after application (upside down), it would pull the gel back to the center of the nail and help give a little arch.
 
The Ibd french extreme gels are very good. Easy to use, strong over tips and sculpts too. I just find the 4 min cure time too time consuming compared to my other branded gels. xx
 
Hi,

Iv been using IBD for a couple of years now, the extreme collection is lovely, really easy to work with, however when building an apex, obviously builder gel is needed, the blush and clear in the extreme collection self levels really fast, as someone mentioned. Also, the coverage isnt great if you want to elongate the nail bed, i recommend mixing a little white and either blush or natural (a builder) for coverage....good luck, post a pic of the wedding nails when your done!!
 
IBD Gels Are brilliant with the right natural nail preparation these gels and there shine last months. GOOD CHOICE:)
For extending the nail plate try Cover It by EzFlow it works great and designed just for this reason.
