Q: My polish has become thick - can I still use it?

A: For traditional polishes, you can add a drop of polish thinner (not nail polish remover). However, if the product has separated significantly or smells off, it's time to replace it. Gel polishes shouldn't be thinned - thickness usually indicates the product is past its prime.

Q: How should I store my nail products to make them last longer?

A: Store polishes upright in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Extreme temperature changes can affect consistency. Keep bottles tightly closed and clean the neck regularly to prevent the cap from sticking. Most products have a 12-24 month shelf life once opened.

Q: Which Bio Sculpture base coat should I choose?

A: For strengthening weak nails, choose Ethos Seaweed Calcium Base. For general use and longevity, Ethos Lavender Base is excellent. For problematic nails needing repair, try the Manucurist Paris S.O.S. Nail Mask base coat. Each serves different nail conditions, so consider your specific needs.

Q: My polish chips quickly - what am I doing wrong?

A: Common causes include: not using a base coat, applying polish too thickly, or not sealing the nail tips. Always use appropriate prep solutions like Multi Cleanse, apply thin coats, and ensure you brush across the nail tip to seal edges. Oil on nails before application is another common culprit - always cleanse thoroughly first.

Q: How do I properly apply Bio Sculpture gel polish for best results?

A: Start with clean, dry nails and push back cuticles. Apply a thin layer of your chosen base coat (like Ethos Lavender Base or Volcanic Base) and cure under LED light. Apply two thin coats of your selected Gemini colour, curing between each layer. Finish with a top coat and cure again. This method ensures longevity and prevents chipping. Always use our Multi Cleanse solution to remove the sticky residue after curing.
