BIO SCULPTURE GEL
BRIDAL NAILS
Every bride wants every single detail to be absolutely perfect, a day you will remember for the rest of your life.
You don't even want to have to think about your nails, you just want to know that they look absolutely gorgeous.
Bio Sculpture is the latest must-have nail care product. Instead of painting on varnish that runs the risk of chipping on the run up to your special day, Bio Sculpture Gel is applied over the natural nails and is then cured under UV light to give a strong, durable finish that dries instantly and does not chip.
So on this perfect day make sure every bit of you looks and feels perfect, from the top of your head to the tips of your very perfect Bio Sculptured nails and toenails.
Bio Sculpture Gel can be used to create natural looking nail extensions or as a colour overlay and is available in over 135 colours so you'll never be limited on choice.
