If you’ve ever wondered how some people’s gel nails look flawless for weeks — no chips, no lifting, and still glossy — the secret isn’t just in the technique. It’s also in the quality of the products used. At Eva Mercedes Cosmetic Studio, we proudly use professional, salon-only brands like Akzentz, The Gel Bottle Inc., and Biosculpture for every manicure.
These luxury gel systems are trusted by top nail professionals around the world for one reason: they deliver real results without compromising your natural nail health.
Why Product Quality Matters in Manicures
Low-quality nail products might look good for the first few days, but they often:
- Chip quickly
- Cause lifting
- Weaken or damage your natural nails
- Require frequent touch-ups
- Contain harsh chemicals that irritate sensitive skin
That’s why we only use premium gel systems that are developed with long-lasting results and nail health in mind.
Our Go-To Gel Brands (and Why We Love Them)
Akzentz: Hypoallergenic, Professional-Only, and Canadian-Made
Akzentz is known for its gentle, HEMA-free formulas, making it perfect for clients with sensitivities or damaged nails. Their Luxio line is a favorite at our studio for its:
- Exceptional pigment and coverage
- Smooth, self-leveling application
- Easy soak-off formula that protects the natural nail
- Long-lasting wear without peeling or lifting
It’s a premium brand that supports both strength and style — a win-win.
The Gel Bottle Inc.: Vegan, Cruelty-Free, and Instagram-Worthy
If you love bold colour, modern finishes, and ethical beauty, The Gel Bottle Inc. is your perfect match. We use their products because they’re:
- 100% vegan and cruelty-free
- Highly pigmented for fewer coats and more colour payoff
- Known for their Builder in a Bottle (BIAB) system, which strengthens natural nails and promotes growth
- Durable and glossy for 3+ weeks of wear
Our clients often request The Gel Bottle for its trending shades and ability to keep nails looking salon-fresh for weeks.

Biosculpture has been setting the standard for nail-friendly gel systems for decades. Their signature selling points:
- 5-star safety rating — the first and only in the nail industry

We recommend Biosculpture for clients focused on restoring their nail health while still enjoying colour and shine.
