IBX is performed after your natural nail prep and before your gel products are applied, so it seamlessly fits into your regular nail service. First time? Select “First IBX Treatment” for the complete intensive treatment. Had IBX at Pinkies before? Select “IBX Maintenance Treatment” to continue supporting and strengthening your natural nails as they grow.

Rubber base is a flexible base gel, great for weak and bendy natural nails or when doing 3D nail art on natural nails. This adds a strong overlay that moves with your nail with your natural nails, preventing lifting and chipping of your manicure. Great to add to your gel manicure!
