CELEBRATE BSG DAY
Hello and welcome to Beyond the Paint, a blog by Bio Seaweed Gel (BSG).
Every other Wednesday we will be releasing new content that will discuss all things nails and more.
CELEBRATE BSG DAY
Established in 2006 in Toronto Canada, BSG will be turning 15 years old on June 19th 2021- that’s nearly two decades! These last 15 years have been filled with so much joy and memories, as well as meeting many lovely beings (both online and in person) who have a love for all things nails.
To celebrate the soon to be 15th year, we will be sharing with you the first look at the details for this year’s BSG Day but first we will be reflecting back with appreciation at the last 15 years.
A Look Back At The Last 15 Years
Since the inception of Bio Seaweed Gel, we are proud to say that BSG has:
- Created 18 unique seasonal collections with a total of 338 Gel Polish shades! That’s 161 UNITY Gels, 146 3STEP Gels and 31 Specialty Gels to be exact, all formulated as Big-5 free, cruelty-free and vegan friendly!
- Attended countless tradeshows both in the US and Canada, where we’ve had the pleasure to meet tens of thousands of some of the most amazing professionals in the business and of course our lovely customers (If you are one of the many faces, we’ve been lucky enough to meet in person, comment below where you are from and which tradeshow!)
- Upgraded offices 3 times, starting from just a home basement and moving into a bigger office and fulfilment space each time to keep up with the growing demands and needs of the brand.
- Opened a US office in California to better support and fulfil the needs of our US based customers! (If you weren’t familiar, we are Canadian brand with our home office in Toronto).
- Worked and partnered up with some of the most talented people and businesses in the industry, from the many nail technicians that we love and admire to companies and organizations like IPSY, NAILPRO Magazine, Nails Magazine and Toronto International Film Fest!
- Given back to charities such as SickKids Foundation, Ronald McDonald House and Black Women in Motion with some of the proceeds acquired through our major sales (hint: BSG Day is one coming up!)

Happy Birthday BSG!! You’ve always been my fave brand in salons and during COVID I’m ecstatic that I was able to keep up with my nails doing DIY gel mani’s! The self levelling aspect of the gels make them so easy to use, and bonus: I’m always getting compliments. Love your vision of 5 free and love even more that you’re a Toronto brand. Cheers to many more birthdays to come!
