I have been watching this thread with a sadness. It is unfortunate that so many of you aren't having a good success with IBX because I on the other hand have ONLY had positive reviews.

Are you using Repair and IBX both?

No you're not thick, they do seem a little confusing at first but when you start to use it its really easy.
Heat source = infra red lamp (something like you'd use for Minx, massage or a hairdryer but it should only be a gentle heat otherwise it could evaporate before it penetrates).
LED or UV source = the setting lamp which is used after the heating to set the product into the nail.
Hope that helps and makes sense.
My nails are beautifully long and strong since I've been using IBX, I've never had them longer than the end of my fingers but now they an almond shape and a good 4mm over the edge! I have a permanent split from an injury which has completely healed up and that particular finger is paper thin but now its so much stronger.
My clients & I love IBX and I can honestly say I've not encountered any problems, apart from CND nourishing remover not working very well to remove with it but now I've just switched back to acetone its fine.

I would just like to ask Linda about the heat source and why they have not launched one that is precise for their product. I appreciate that this is not UV but there are still potential issues here - how hot the dryer is and varying distances held away from the product. Different bulbs manufactured emit different heat/wave lengths etc. Even if the product just has to dry surely it gives a professional look to the client.......
I am using both. Is that wrong?
Im wondering whether people with nail dryers/hair dryers are getting better results than people like myself using a infrared light. Could the heat be too much? Im going to trying using a hairdryer on my Mum on Saturday instead of the infrared, shes had about 4 treatments so far. Im really not seeing any WOW changes in any of my clients but my friend who's using a travel hairdryer is!!! I'll report back

When we were formulating IBX we wanted to make this product easily accessible to you----not having to buy high priced LED's, etc, being able to use what you already have on your table. The heat source is your preference on what you would like to use, IBX only needs to be warmed, not hot, so using a table lamps 6-8" away is perfect---the easiest is the nail dryers that have a warm setting and the blow dryer works, but obviously not the ideal choice. We didn't want there to be any barriers to try IBX. Belson makes a great nail dryer and that seems to be what everyone is getting and they are not expensive at all!
