Today's topic:
So Japanese Gel… First off, what is it?
Japanese gel is typically a soak-off gel most commonly manufactured in pots that is made in Japan.
I like to give it its own category of systems as “soft potted gel”, especially so that I can also present and credit the pioneer of soft potted gel formulas, Bio Sculpture Gel, which is actually manufactured in South Africa, not in Japan, and invented soft potted gel way back in 1988.
(Now as a side note, in the industry we typically use the words soft gel and soak-off gel interchangeably.)
So let’s recap. Soft potted gel is typically...
In a pot.
Soak-off (or you can say soft gel).
And Made in Japan, except for the inventors of soft potted gel, Bio Sculpture Gel.
And so, while it is becoming ever so popular, soft potted gel is definitely not a trend, it is a problem solving way of doing nails and therefore it is here to stay. Because it solves problems. Just like the inventions we mentioned earlier. Gel polish, and full coverage tips.
And this is our topic for today’s video! What problems do soft potted gel systems help solve?
I continue this topic in the video.

This is such a wonderful explanation! You are so well spoken and I really appreciate this information

[@kstarbar]

So if you had to sculpt long extensions, is there a hard gel line you recommend? Thanks!

Question: How do we stop gel from creeping out of the pots -_- I have a lot of Light Elegance color gels, and buttercreams, and some Vetro pods. It feels like the gel is literally ... creeping out of the pots sometimes -_- How do I make it stop?

[@genahebert4]

Are buttercreams considered soft gels? And what is in them?? Acrylic paint? Or whatever is in acrylic paint? Cuz I have made some of my own very pigmented gels with color gel, even some powders and a tiny bit of acrylic paint and it turns out exactly like buttercream? Ty❤️

Do you have a date for the next round of classes after this current one?

Hi Paola I have started working with akzentz luxio gel system and their soft potted gel system called options. Can I use these products with your course or do I need to switch product lines? Is what I'm using the same ?

[@PaolaPonceNails]

Options should be perfect! Do they have a soak off builder gel?

[@martinethenailnerd6364]

I’m a gel nail tech and I just purchased some Leafgel. I’m excited to learn about this system.

Half tips are nail tips you adhere to the free edge of the nail instead of the whole nail bed
