🔺Today's Topic:
Choosing the right structure gel will ensure the longevity of your structured gel overlays.
If you choose to simply go with the brand that is the most popular, then you may end up with more service breakdowns then you’d want to repair.
Choosing the right structure gel starts by narrowing down what products and services you want to offer.
Here’s how I recommend about going through your selection process:
Choose whether you’ll be doing your structures with a hard gel or soft gel system
Decide two, maybe 3 brands that you ideally want to master your structured overlays with
Consider the length of the nails you are working on.
Once you’ve gotten clear in these three areas, you’re ready to proceed and make a decision on what structure gel is the right choice for you to use your natural nail overlays.
When you’re ready hit play!

Thank you for this! I just did your master class and LOVED IT!
Aw!!! Yay 😁
I usually apply mega stick base and platinum filler on all my clients doing a structured manicure. But with a 2n1 I can prep the nail and go right in???
I have platinum bond duo. Is it largely interchangeable with platinum filler base? Is one or the other generally better for thin bendy nails?
Loving mega stick base so far! It’s the only product that lets me get 2 weeks wear without too much lifting
A video for platinum filler, pleaseeee 🙏❤️
YESSS this!!!!! Surprised there is no video on platinum filler.
The step-by-step and all it’s details are taught in the Kokoist Certification classes, but I’d be happy to answer your questions!
hi paola, thanks for another informative video! i currently use leaf gel extreme clear base and sculpting gel.
however i did have a question that i wanted to know your thoughts on: i’ve noticed that japanese gel brand make their overlay gel as a base (as in before art/color) while korean companies tend to make their overlay gels to be used after base and art/color (but obviously before topcoat).
do you think the difference impacts the retention/wearability of the nail? or would you say it shouldn’t really make that much of a difference? have you personally tried korean overlay gels?
Great question.
Either will yield long retention. It's a matter of strategizing your application.
If your art is going to add bilk, is better to overlay thin first, then art, then you'll be able to gauge how much to structure.
These videos are great! I have short nails that I want to grow and strengthen . Should I apply the mega stick base first and then the 3 in 1 builder or just start with mega?
I'm buying all but 2 of the new NT gels tomorrow.
The purple and blue?
@@PaolaPonceNails yes, those two don't interest me. I'm not sure that they will my clients as well.
@PaolaPonceNails I ended up getting the entire collection lol
@@kathykov1 You seriously crack me up Kathy!
Yeah, I'm like that. Lol
How long do you cure nail thoughts 3in1 with you Leblanc lamp?
I have a client with medium strong nails. However, she works with her hands in water a lot, which means they are flexing. Would it be better to apply kokoist mega stick first before platinum filler or would it really just be better to move over to nail thoughts?
Well, you know your options, so it is just a matter of choosing what you prefer.
I leave Filler Base only for fills, as alone it may be too hard for some clients.
Hey Paola, can you tell me again those three nail thoughts colours you tipped to be most popular? I rewinded and wanted to double check you said 20, 24, 27?
Yes! 20- Sugar Glaze, 24- Baby Cakes, 27- Lip Gloss.... and if you have room for one more 23- Chai Latte.
Can mega stick base be used to create structure for short nail overlay or is it too thin for that?
Hmmm… not really, but you still do want to apply it w/ som thickness.
@@PaolaPonceNailsthank you! Ordered NT base and PBD to try overlays with mega stick underneath. Thank you for all the helpful info as I’m finding the best combo for my thin bendy nails 🎉
