BRILLBIRD BRUSH&GO Gel Guide

BRILLBIRD BRUSH&GO

Brillbird Brush&go gel is a no wipe hard gel that offers a highly pigmented finish. Only a thin layer is required for optimal results. Avoid applying the gel in thick layers, as the high pigmentation can lead to curing issues. When applied correctly, you can expect a flawless application every time.

Finish and Shine

Since Brush&go is a no wipe gel, it cures with a shiny finish. For those seeking even more shine and additional protection, Extra Top can be applied over the cured layer.

Preparation and Application

Always stir the product well before use to ensure consistency and the best results.

Brush&go is best used as a full colour over acrylic, hard gel, or poly gels. It is not recommended for use over soft gels or BIAB, as it may crack due to the flexibility of these bases. To apply simply use the Brillbird Gel Star brush for ease of application, using just a small amount on one side of the brush apply over the entire nail and smooth. To get extra close cuticle work we recommend the Brillbird '0 Long' brush.

Tips for Acrylic Application

Tip: If you experience issues with longevity when applying Brush&go over acrylic, try applying a layer of topcoat first, then buff before using Brush&go. This will provide a smoother surface for application, especially compared to a heavily filed surface. 

Creative Uses and Nail Art

Brush&go is ideal for coloured French designs, intricate nail art, and general design work. Its thicker consistency means you can work longer without it spreading before it is cured.

Chrome pigments adhere well to this gel, so you do not need to apply a topcoat before using chrome pigments.

When creating isolated chrome designs, select your base colour, cure, buff, paint your design using Brush&go, cure again, then apply the chrome pigment. Dust off any excess and finish with a topcoat. If you are working directly over cover pink acrylic (with topcoat) or gel, simply buff to remove the shine, paint your design, cure, rub in the chrome pigment, dust, and then apply the topcoat.

To avoid peeling at the edges of chrome French or full cover chrome nails, apply a thin layer of Primer 2 over the dusted chrome before finishing with your chosen topcoat.

Brush&go gel also works perfectly over an already topcoated nail, making it the best choice for slightly raised texture nail art designs. Once you're done... just cure, no need to topcoat it again.

Nail ‘Sugaring’ and Special Effects

Nail ‘sugaring’ is effortless with Brush&go gels. After applying your chosen colour, sprinkle your favourite micro glitter over the uncured layer for a sparkly effect, then cure. Tap off any excess glitter before curing and dust off any remaining glitter after curing. This is perfect for snow effects, sparkly Santa hats, glittery swirls, and more. You can also use coloured or clear acrylic powder for a matte effect, which is especially suitable for creating sweater nail designs.

Colour Range and Customer Appeal

Brush&go gels are available in an impressive selection of more than 120 colours, offering a wide variety of options to suit any style or preference. Thanks to their intense pigmentation, only a small amount of product is needed to achieve vibrant, even coverage. This efficiency, paired with the extensive colour palette, makes Brush&go gels a popular choice among technicians seeking both versatility and quality.
