Perhaps, the biggest fear a manicure lover might have is to break a nail. The mere thought of not being able to get a lovely manicure can be nothing short of a disappointment. That’s not to mention that it can be painful and cause more serious nail problems. In easy cases, filing might be all it takes to repair the broken nail. In more serious ones, it takes going to a beauty salon and get it fixed by a nail technician. That’s when F.O.X Carbon Gel can be a helpful ally.
Benefits of F.O.X Carbon Gel:
- contains natural silk fibres;
- creates a reinforcing mesh during polymerization, connecting spaces between the cracks into a single, integral surface;
- leaves a sticky layer;
- recommended for professional use only.-
1. Apply Nail Prep from F.O.X to the damaged surface of the nail.
2. Apply F.O.X Ultra Bond, an acid-free primer for extra adhesion.
3. Apply a thin priming layer of the base from F.O.X with rubbing movements. Cure in the LED/UV lamp 36/48W for 60 seconds.
4. Apply Carbon Gel to the crack area and evenly distribute the fibres without creating excess volume. Cure in a LED/UV lamp 36/48W - 60 seconds.
5. Apply a dense F.O.X base to the entire nail plate, place a drop at the apex point and level, covering the repair area. Cure in a LED/UV lamp 36/48W - 60 seconds.
6. If necessary, perform nail plate grinding. The nail is ready to be covered with gel polish.
I bought this product a few months ago (at the end of December). It came to me in a thick consistency, with fibers - just as it should be. It is not watery at all. After using it for a few months, I can only praise it. I only do nails for myself and my mom. It works perfectly for repairing nail cracks, growing out corners, and even adding a little length. It also strengthens amazingly - if you apply it to the entire nail, it will hold like concrete. The only difficulty (of course, it depends on the person) is that you need to file the part where the gel is (because some fibers stick out). Overall, this is a fantastic product. I have not regretted purchasing it for a moment.
In the photo, the nail is completely covered with this gel (I applied it to strengthen it because it was very thin + the manicure has already lasted about one and a half weeks).
