IBD Power Bond, 14 ml - MADE IN USA - Premium acid-free base coat bonder for gel and hybrid coatings to improve adhesion

Leaving this review as I am just about to repurchase. I bought my first bottle in July 2018 (lasted over 2 years!) and have been using it on my nails every 2-3 weeks (along with the IBD dehydrator). I used to have problems with lifting before I bought this - no lifting/chipping whatsoever! My gels don’t come off until I remove them, which is the way it should be. I’ve seen some other reviewers have had some issues but that’s probably to do with technique. Dehydrator - use as much as you want Powerbond - use sparingly. If there is too much on the nail plate or if it gets on your skin, gel product will start to flood around the cuticle area/lateral nail fold and you’ll have to clean up the area before you cure and it can be time consuming

This is one of two products I have used to stop my gel nails peeling off. Highly recommend this product.

This item is really great because it really works. Throughout the years I've tried so many different primers and all of them would let my gel to stay on the nails for couple of days only and then it would start peeling off. This thing creates miracles. There is only one downfall - my nail, after taking the gel with primer off, were paper thin and in many places layers of natural nails would be peeling off. So it's called Dehydrator and that's what it does. It also called a bonder and it really bonds. Overall brilliant item for someone who wants his gels to stay on the nails for longer that they'd usually get.

I was using hard gel so i could grow my nails but occasional a nail would ‘ping’ off so I purchased this and its made the world of difference. Since then I’ve started to use Acrylic and do full extensions, so now i use this as part of my ‘Prep & Prime’ (this step is the ‘Primer’). It’s a great product that can be used with all nail systems. I think I’m going to use it on clients who have trouble with Gel polish lasting too...

very strong and sturdy, very easy to apply. No colour goes on well not too runny. Held retention for a while

I’ve used this product for years and it’s the best on the market. I’ve recently run out and I was been trying to find the best deal, surprising it wasn’t my trade store, it was Amazon! Bargain to say it’s usually at least £16 elsewhere.

Works for some people, but not for me .. never had liftings , i use other product on other people and they stays without any faults... with IBD bonder , my nails are horribly lifting, even i do quality job and always has been. Maybe not suitable for everyone

WARNING** it’s pretty strong stuff so always do a tester on skin before hand. Anyway ... Marvellous stuff. Worth it if you are into doing gel polish using normal uv polishes but specifically this product is a MUST when using builder gels/ acrylics. I tried for a few months without it and within days my gels/ infills/extensions were lifting off. I bought primer and that didn’t cut it. This bonder works a treat. Now I have my nails on until I am ready to take them off. Plus IBD have tutorials and how to videos online and on YouTube so it’s easy to pick up tips and tricks. This stuff will last me for donkeys years !
