IBX is a two-part natural nail strengthening syste IBX is a two-part natural nail strengthening system made to toughen, repair and protect the natural nail. IBX is HEMA Free.

IBX is the first treatment of its kind - it works INSIDE the nail plate and not on top. IBX penetrates into the upper layers of the nail and cross-links inside the nail plate to create an Interpenetrating Polymer Network (IPN), similar to the structure of a cargo net.

-  Under Gel Polish IBX will protect, repair and toughen the natural nail.
-  IBX REPAIR is used to repair severe nail damage to set the stage for growth.
-  IBX toughens the upper layers of the nail plate allowing nail growth.
- With multiple treatments fills up deep grooves resulting in a smoother nail plate.
- Natural nail colour and appearance is improved.

If you struggle to grow your natural nails, book in for IBX Treatment along with the manicure of your choice (IBX is an add-on service): https://www.fresha.com/a/rambling-rose-nails-and-make-up-mangawhai-thelma-road-north-i1d1r1d4/booking?menu=true&dppub=true&employeeId=450913&pId=142955
