How to apply clear builder in a bottle (BIAB Gel Nails Tutorial)

[@HuyanaBeauty]

Sorry my nails are slightly stained, iv'e been gardening this weekend 😂

[@lions3004]

Great vid! Did u say don’t apply cuticle oil if we use gel polish on top of Biab?

[@alexischavez3238]

If you need to ReSharpen your cuticle nippers you can crumple up some aluminum foil and snip into it with the nippers a few times this should solve the dullness rather than having to repurchase new ones

[@Katie-pi2yq]

this helped me so much with lifting at the tip omg, i never thought to file after the top coat!!

[@veronicacoates8832]

This method seems so much easier than getting the apex. Thank you!!

[@viviennerafferty9944]

I have used biab for 3 years and never ever used a base coat and never had any lifting whatsoever

[@Wildflowerincali]

You have such pretty natural nails. Thanks for the vid❤️

[@kerrywood407]

I’ve used regular base with builder in a bottle for a couple of years now and it’s always been fine. I won’t use 100 grit on my nails when they only have a little gel layer left on it’s really harsh I use 180 or if it’s just natural nail 240 x

We don't care about your nail routine

[@yolyrom7233]

Exactly

[@faithsturt7887]

Very precise and clear instructions

[@LordyLordItsSophia]

There’s a lot of controversy on whether you should remove any skin at all that isn’t cuticle. Because cuticles are not the skin around your nails, that is the proximal nail fold (living skin at the point where the nail grows out of) and the lateral nail folds (living skin at the sides of the nail plate). If that proximal fold is removed you risk exposing the nail matrix underneath, and tbh the dry areas just come back with a vengeance. The skin knows it’s being damaged and reacts by strengthening it against further trauma- It’s skin just like anywhere else on your body, if it’s dry, sticking the nail plate, there’s no need to nip just use a cream with urea and a gentle exfoliant to hydrate and lock in moisture. After a couple weeks you should see a difference❤❤

[@blushbaby5278]

No we like the skin snipped stop telling people what to do

[@abbyhickman6409]

Do you need to cure the rubber base before putting the builder on?

[@HuyanaBeauty]

Yep you do

[@BethWilliams-by3ee]

Hi, so am I right in saying if you want clear biab then it’s just rubber base then the clear bias and that’s it but if it was colour how does that work? Do you use base then clear biab then set a gel polish on top?

[@littlegui4823]

Your videos are so relaxing!😘😘

[@HuyanaBeauty]

Thankyou! X

[@soothingmusic4778]

Cute nails you have❤️

[@lauram4168]

dont you have to apply after the base, a thin layer of rubber gel then without curing, you add like a dot of gel and you slightly work with the brush and help a little to edgea and then cure?

[@andreaelizabeth5494]

Why in the world would you want to put a layer of something and not cure it. This is what causes a lot of allergies. Thick layers or goopy stuff are not curing.

[@stacyrensburgoliver]

How long do they last ? I normally use acrylic powders

[@carlfoster6060]

Nice nails

[@victoriaedejor5405]

Hiya, which UV lamp do you use?

[@jamieleem2500]

Hey quick question if i wanted to then go on to put a gel polish ontop of the builder do i still use a base coat or just go straight in with colour :) thank you

[@HuyanaBeauty]

Hey, just go straight in with the colour :)

[@jamieleem2500]

@@HuyanaBeauty thank you :)

[@robinmcginnis6335]

@@HuyanaBeauty do you have to file or buff the builder gel before the polish?

[@viviennerafferty9944]

Do not use my basecoat during the process. It makes builder gel lift.

[@deutschesmaedchen]

My gel chips if I cap the free edge. I’ve been trying the opposite and actually gently filing the side walls and tips after I’ve cured all the layers and it’s actually making it last longer on the nails.

[@despoullapantelaki2479]

Which cuticle oil are you using and recommend?

[@killtheMOD]

Hi, thanks for the informative content. Do you think it’s possible to do the biab after a 2 in 1 base coat? Would the only downside be that it lifted sooner? Thank you!

[@viviennerafferty9944]

I do not use any basecoat and have never had any lifting. I only do my own nails.

[@UberGooose]

Is this soak off or file off? I was lookinng on their website and it seems that the white and clear biab are file off and the coloured biab are soak off. Is it not the same formula? Very confused D:

[@pegahtosifno]

You can soak off the clear biab

[@andreialeiria6728]

Which product should I use to clean a the nail afterwards??? Pure acetone? Alcohol?

[@angelalowe5747]

No using acetone to clean smooths out the gel left on your nail, and the new product won’t adhere to the old product as well

[@miagilbert4996]

Do you need a rubber base for the coloured biab or just the clear? 😊

[@femdoesnails]

Only for BIAB clear and BIAB white! :)

[@CarlyFitch-ov9ge]

is a 100 grit file not too harsh on the natural nail?

[@TheBabyjode]

What did you use to wipe over it with, was it acetone?

[@HuyanaBeauty]

Hey it’s was just an alcohol wipe for the sticker layer :)

[@TheBabyjode]

@@HuyanaBeauty thank you!

[@samantharichardson2581]

Do you not add a top coat after you've buffed

[@HuyanaBeauty]

No not necessary. You apply the top coat last x

[@francesmcdonagh5610]

What is the rubber base before the biab? Do you cure that too I am new to biab

[@HuyanaBeauty]

Yes I cure it x

[@karabathesorceress6923]

Is the biab supposed to be tacky after curing? I’m leaving it without top coat to get it polished at the salon but it feels tacky

[@HuyanaBeauty]

Yes that's normal

[@floxesoffoxes5262]

If you're putting colour on over the builder, can you just apply it straight out of the lamp? Or do you need to prep the builder for the colour by buffing it?

[@HuyanaBeauty]

Yes it can go straight over out of the lamp

[@luciasolbiati4678]

No lamp after the base?

[@christinawalker7743]

What is a rubber base ?????

[@HuyanaBeauty]

Hey, its just a really durable base base coat

[@BabyUnicorn0]

Do you have to use rubber base I can’t get gel in a bottle brand can I use others?

[@shannonmesenbrink3745]

Do you use an efile to remove it? Also could you use a ph bonder as a base instead of the rubber base?

[@HuyanaBeauty]

Iv never tried one. Although they do look great. I just use acetone to remove xx

[@amber_Forever16]

You didn’t add a top coat?!?

[@kelseymcleod5995]

did you put your nails under the lamp after applying the rubber base coat before put on the BIAB???

[@HuyanaBeauty]

Yep every new application is set in the lamp x

[@ROSE_reddy]

What is a rubber base? I’ve never heard of that.

[@HuyanaBeauty]

It's just extra strong tyoe of base coat

[@ROSE_reddy]

@@HuyanaBeauty thank you!!

[@demyschur9858]

Hi! I’m a beginner with BIAB but mine peel off like within a week… what do i do wrong?

[@HuyanaBeauty]

No idea lol Just follow these steps use a good gel brand and with practice you will get better : )

[@darcypage6825]

Hiya, do you have to apply the rubber base if you are using a coloured biab or is it just for clear biab you have to use a rubber base ❤ This was an amazing video xxx

[@HuyanaBeauty]

Hey thanks, nope only for clear x

[@joolsBand]

I am confused.. if you use the clear biab and colour, do i need to to apply a base coat before clear biab? if I apply a colour do i use a top coat? Thanks

[@HuyanaBeauty]

Hey. So yes you still need to apply the rubber base. When ever your using clear builder by the gel bottle as you will get lifting. You don’t have to apply builder if you are just wanting to paint them a colour. So you can just use a base coat then your colour then your top coat. But this sometimes is strong enough for some peoples nails. And yes you need to use a topcoat to seal it all in and give it its shine after you have put a colour gel over the builder Hope this helps

[@jennifertitmuss5056]

Hi. Can you tell me what a rubber base is please? Also, at the end when you are going back over your nails, what are you wiping them with? Thanks

[@HuyanaBeauty]

Hey, a rubber base is an extra strong base coat that can be used underneath any gel colour. It must be used when using the gel bottle clear BIAB as this gives it a base for the BIAB to attach to. Hope this makes sense I wipe them to remove the sticker layer using an alcohol wipe

[@sashaunaarchibald51]

Did you dry the rubber base

[@HuyanaBeauty]

Yes I’m so sorry! I set this for 1 minute 30 seconds

[@mariamihalcescu3515]

Not intending to spread have , but, as a nail tech , this is very wrong from many aspects😂 applying product close to the cuticle will NEVER cause lifting unless the nail bed preping is not on point and there is stilll dead skin on it , applying top coat on the gel is mandatory , and capping the tips with product îs a nail myth ,you file it anyways for shaping

[@fitcoachfran]

Hello is this just a normal UV gel lamp? And could you recommend any brands to buy from? I am wanting to start doing my own BIAB + Gel nails but don’t know where to start and know some brands can be rubbish! Thank u ☺️

[@HuyanaBeauty]

The Gel Bottle Inc, and yes the lamp is LED 👍

[@e_vmt754]

How long do these nails last ? 😊 and do u need a top coat after applying a color?

[@HuyanaBeauty]

3 weeks+, and no you don't need a top coat 😊

[@finettevandermeer116]

do u need a top coat after applying the biab 19th? 🙃

[@amber_Forever16]

@@finettevandermeer116 my biab kit came with top coat and every other person I’ve seen use it uses a top coat but I do make a small extension with a paper form. I got quite a large kit on Amazon by Gersion and it comes with everything you need and 6 different colors including clear for only $9.99 and it works really well!

[@laurac86]

@@finettevandermeer116 - I use the ASP Builder Gel in a bottle in a nude pink and I never put top coat on. I usually put a nail polish over it but sometimes when I don’t have enough time to fill my nails and and then paint them I just leave them without top coat as the finish is super shiny on it’s own. But that’s only if I don’t have to file them to smooth them out. If I have to file then to smooth them I’ll do that then add a thin coat over it to get that shine back

[@raesarchives]

What grit is the file?

[@kwmlife]

Amazing video xx

[@yourradiantsoul3825]

Thx for this

[@HuyanaBeauty]

No worries thanks for watching ☺️

[@gratitudequeen4559]

What brand/polish is the rubber base do you use?

[@HuyanaBeauty]

Gel Bottle

[@helloimtokki]

Will the gel dry on its own without a uv light? I’ve never used gel before 😅

[@HuyanaBeauty]

You definitely need a light haha x

[@tigergrill7812]

Yh it will not dry without a light. A very thin layer will dry in a couple hours but usually people apply a thicker layer which will never dry rlly. There’s cheap lights on Amazon. Just make sure to read reviews to make sure they work well. I got one for £9 but it’s one where you can only cure one finger at a time.

[@marmarquez2250]

So you don't cure any of it ? I'm confused. Ughh

[@brenbaclayon554]

You didn't put a primer or an dihydrator

[@laurie.n2487]

I believe the rubber base has primer in it and you just prep with acetone

[@Myplaylistsofmusic]

Does the BIAB smell? Mine smelled like cheese while curing and still smells 3 hours later 🤢

[@HuyanaBeauty]

Actually some of my clients say it does have a wierd smell, but I don't really notice it I think because I use it everyday

[@georgia6462]

Mine always smells like sick 😂

[@FLdancer00]

People who cut their "cuticles" are psycho.

[@keepingitrealUK]

I hope you don't do nails like this on paid clients. I was horrified how you treated those cuticles.
