When it comes to nailing perfect long-lasting nails, Base Gelcoat and Top Gelcoat are non-negotiables. These two products serve as the foundation and finishing touch of any gel manicure, ensuring durability, protection, and a flawless finish. Whether you're a professional Nail Artist or Enthusiast, understanding their importance is key to maintaining beautiful, healthy nails.

 

The Power of a Good Base

 Base Gelcoat lays the groundwork for any gel manicure. It acts as the foundation, ensuring a smooth, even surface for color application while enhancing adhesion and longevity. Our Base Gelcoat is a soft gel formula that not only evens out the nail surface but also creates an optimal bond between the natural nail and the gel polish. The result? A manicure that stays put without lifting or peeling.

Why Base Gelcoat is Essential:

  • Protects the Natural Nail: It forms a barrier that prevents staining and damage from pigmented gel couleurs

  • Ensures Even Application: The smoothing effect allows for a flawless, professional-looking finish.

  • Enhances Longevity: A proper gel base coat extends the life of a gel manicure, reducing chipping and peeling.

  • Easy Removal: Despite its strong adhesion, our Base Gelcoat is designed for easy soak-off removal, making it convenient for regular nail care.

 

The Role of Top Gelcoat:

Once your color is applied, sealing it with Top Gelcoat is what locks in shine, protects against chipping, and extends wear. Our Non-Wipe Glossy Top Gelcoat is an industry favorite for a reason. With an ultra-high shine finish and a semi-hard formula, it provides unbeatable strength and durability.

Benefits of Top Gelcoat:

  • Locks in Color: Prevents fading and dulling, keeping the manicure vibrant for weeks.

  • Provides High Shine or Matte Finish: Whether you prefer a glossy, glass-like effect or a chic matte look, our Top Gelcoats deliver.

  • Chip-Resistant Formula: Designed to withstand everyday wear and tear without chipping.

  • Non-Yellowing: Maintains clarity and brightness over time, ensuring a fresh, polished appearance.

 

Pro Tips for a Flawless Application:

To achieve the best results follow these expert application tips:

 

  • Prep Properly: Clean and dehydrate the nail surface before applying the Base Gelcoat to ensure maximum adhesion.

  • Apply Thin, Even Layers: Too much product can lead to lifting or uneven curing. A thin, even coat ensures optimal performance.

  • Cap the Free Edge: Sealing the tips of the nails with both Base Gelcoat and Top Gelcoat prevents premature chipping.

  • Cure Completely: Ensure your gel coats are fully cured under a professional LED or UV lamp for a long-lasting finish.

  •  Use a Non-Wipe Top Coat: Our Non-Wipe Glossy Top Gelcoat eliminates the need for a sticky residue wipe-down, saving time and effort.
