BIAB vs. Gel: The Ultimate Nail Battle
Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to the ultimate showdown in the world of manicures! In the red corner, we have the reigning champ, Gel Polish, known for its shine but also its chipping tendencies. And in the blue corner, the rising star, BIAB (Builder In A Bottle), promising strength, durability, and nail health. Let’s see who takes the crown.
Round 1: Strength & Durability
Gel Polish: Looks fabulous at first, but after a week or two, chips, cracks, and lifts start creeping in. A single bad move (hello, opening a can) and disaster strikes.
BIAB: Acts like an invisible bodyguard for your nails—strong, flexible, and resistant to daily life’s little attacks. Plus, it actually helps your natural nails grow stronger.
Winner: BIAB – because no one likes weak, flaky nails.
Carefully selected products…
Round 2: Longevity
Gel Polish: Holds up for 2 to 3 weeks, but if one nail chips, it’s game over. Time for a redo.
BIAB: Stays flawless for 3 to 4 weeks, meaning fewer trips to the salon and more time flaunting perfect nails.
Winner: BIAB – because who has time for constant touch-ups?

Round 3: Nail Health
Gel Polish: Requires aggressive filing and soaking in acetone for removal, leaving natural nails feeling thin and damaged over time.
BIAB: Applies like a gel but removes more gently, with minimal filing. Plus, it actually works to strengthen your natural nails instead of weakening them.
Winner: BIAB – because healthy nails are always better.
“BIAB done right! My nails have never looked better. Super professional and friendly service too. I’ll definitely be back!”

Round 4: Look, Feel & Finish
Gel Polish: Can be beautiful and glossy but sometimes looks a little thick or artificial. The finish can also dull over time, especially with exposure to water and daily wear.
BIAB: Has a smoother, more natural look with a lightweight feel. It provides a semi-hard structure that mimics the flexibility of natural nails, preventing that bulky or plastic-like effect some gels can have. The self-leveling formula also ensures a flawless, salon-quality finish every time.
Winner: BIAB – for that effortlessly chic, always-polished look.
Each nail, a work of art…
Final Round: Application & Removal
Gel Polish: Needs a base coat, multiple color layers, and a topcoat, plus a full UV curing process. Removal requires a long soak and some serious buffing.
BIAB: Applies faster, lasts longer, and removes with less damage. The application process is also more efficient since it combines strength and structure in one step, reducing excessive layering.
Winner: BIAB – because convenience is key.
