Biab, vs. Gel polish

Biab and traditional gel polish are both options for achieving long lasting manicures but they do have some notable differences. Traditional gel polish is typically applied on nails or extensions. Requires a separate base coat and top coat. It offers a high gloss finish. Can stay chip free for up to two weeks.

On the hand Biab is an all in one system that combines the advantages of both acrylics and gel polish. It delivers an more durable outcome compared to gel polish. With Biab you can enjoy nails that last for weeks without chipping, lifting or fading.

Another distinction lies in the removal process. Traditional gel polish necessitates soaking in acetone to break down the product, which can be time consuming and potentially harmful, to your nails.


To remove Biab easily you can file or buff the layer and soak your nails in acetone for a duration. Here's a step, by step guide, for effectively removing your Biab manicure;

1. Begin by filing or buffing the layer of your Biab manicure. This will break the seal. Allow the acetone to penetrate the gel.

2. Soak a lint pad or cotton ball in acetone. Place it on each nail. To prevent evaporation secure it with aluminum foil or nail clips.

3. Allow your nails to soak for around 10 15 minutes so that the acetone can break down the Biab gel. You might need to scrape off any softened gel using a cuticle pusher or orangewood stick.

4. Once you've successfully removed the gel rinse your nails with water to eliminate any residue. Finally apply cuticle oil to moisturize and nourish your nails after completing the removal process.
