Anela's Pro Tip

"The LED/UV Bonder is my first choice for clients with HEMA sensitivity – the HEMA-free formula gives me and my clients the necessary safety, without sacrificing maximum adhesion. The crucial professional tip: apply bonder really only wafer-thin and dab it off briefly before curing – too much bonder blocks the adhesive bridge instead of improving it. I see this mistake in almost every one of my trainings." – Anela Mucic, World Champion Nail Design 2023 & INJA Juror

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between the LED/UV Bonder and the PowerBond?
The LED/UV Bonder cures under a lamp and is HEMA-free – ideal for chemically sensitive clients. The PowerBond air-dries, contains HEMA, but is compatible with gel, gel polish, and acrylic.

Why is HEMA-free important?
HEMA is a common trigger for allergic reactions in nail products. The HEMA-free bonder significantly reduces this risk.

How do I determine if a client is HEMA-sensitive?
Typical signs include redness, itching, or swelling in the nail area after previous gel applications – if suspected, the HEMA-free bonder is recommended as a precautionary measure.

Can I combine the LED/UV Bonder with all ibd gels?
Yes, it is compatible with all ibd Hard Gel and Builder Gel products in the range.

What happens if I apply too much bonder?
Too much bonder can block the adhesive bridge instead of improving it – a wafer-thin layer with subsequent blotting is important.
