Question Hello,presently i am using bio sculpture gel which i love but extremely expensive..i do not wnat to stop using it but i would like to try another gel, I was wondering if you have found a gel that comes close to bio without the huge investment.
Answer I actually only use CND Brisa UV Gels. They are hypoallergenic( because of a low amount of PI/Photo initiator in the product, and also no formaldehyde, or gluteraldehyde, which are known allergens). I love the workability of this gel, and I have never seen any white as bright as this lines.
You should also be charging enough to cover costs of your supplies! You won't be able to shortcut when it comes to quality product, I find it's much more worth spending the extra $$ to get lasting, reliable results with each and every service I provide my clients :)
