Up until a few years ago, I had never heard of Bio Sculpture. Like many of my peers, my nail journey began with acrylic nails (long, square French tips were de rigueur in the '00s) before moving on to the more natural-looking shellac nails. It was only when a colleague introduced me to Harriet Westmoreland – Rochelle Humes' go-to manicurist – on Instagram, that I became aware of the gel brand Bio Sculpture.
Unbeknown to me, Bio Sculpture nails have been around for decades. In fact, it is the original gel polish brand, having launched the first-ever soak-off gel ("Clear Gel") back in 1988. Bridging the gap between a strengthening nail treatment and a gel overlay, Bio Sculpture paved the way for many more soak-off gel nail treatments, including BIAB nails, CND shellac and Gelish.
