What are gel nails? Being a fan of all things natural I didn’t know what they were either. Until recently that is when I was offered to test drive the new Bio Sculpture gel nail system. The results exceeded my expectations.
In short, gel nails are a professional glossy nail covering that lasts a few weeks. Layers of gel are applied to the natural nail and cured for about 30 seconds each layers under a UV lamp. The nails are dry to touch once they are cured.
Want to know more? Read the positives & negatives of gel nails below.

Positives:
* - instantly dry and smudge proof
* - very glossy, vibrant finish
* - strong and natural looking nails
* - you can change the colour by simply painting over your gel nails with nail polish
* - endless nail art possibilities: some gels, like Bio Sculpture Gel for example, can have nail art embedded (feathers, studs, glitter or foil) into the gel
* - it lasts up to 3 weeks on fingers and 8 weeks on toes – WITHOUT chipping! (I’m a fidgety person but regardless of how many times I picked at my gel nails, they remained in perfect condition)
* - specific to Bio Sculpture gel nails: it is applied with no primers or bonders so there is no de-hydration of the natural nail
* - good gel manicure can actually protect and strengthen the natural nail, especially if you have dry nails prone to chipping
Negatives:
* - you can’t do it at home
* - some gels can damage and de-hydrate your nails
* - it takes about 30 minutes to apply (this is the fastest with the new Bio Sculpture LED lamp, while usually it takes over an hour)
* - it costs something around $50 and some salons charge for removal around $20
* - it takes about 15 minutes to remove gel nails and it’s an involved process (which we’ll show you in one of our future posts)

Conclusion: perfect for those who want great looking, healthy and accurate nails for a long period of time without having to worry about re-applying nail polish. If that’s you and you’re willing to invest some $$ and time It’s well worth having this manicure done.
Note: I tried Bio Sculpture gel nail system and was satisfied with the result. My nails appeared to look fine after removing the gel. However, I can’t confirm that other gels will have the same effect (ie. no negative effect). So choose carefully which brand to
