The flexible foundation that moves with you.

Rubber Base Coat flexes with your nails to help prevent lifting, cracking, and chipping. Ideal for soft, thin or bendy nails, its unique rubber-like qualities allow it to move naturally with your nails, helping to prevent your manicure from pulling away.

Thicker than regular Base Coat, its self-levelling formula smooths imperfections and is perfect for flaky, brittle, or uneven nails. Creating a more even and flexible base for your gel polish to adhere to, use in place of your regular Base Coat, and continue your mani as usual.

Features:

  • Bends and moves naturally with your nails, helping to prevent lifting, cracking and chipping.
  • Supports soft, thin, or bendy nails with its flexible formula.
  • Self-levelling to smooth imperfections and create an even base for your gel polish.
  • Creates a strong bond between your nails and gel polish for lasting wear.

    Reliable base coat

    Worked well, have tried under multiple colours and also on its own with top coat and haven’t had any issues! My nails last ages and don’t peel even when grown out a bit as you can see in the video.

    First time and super impressed!

    I used to be a dip system kinda gal but the lifting was horrendous come week 2-3. After many mo the debating going to builder gel I made the switch and made the risky move to buy and entire system. It is so easy to us! I’ve had no issues with lifting. The online videos help a lot with application and I had zero issues on applying the product or with retention. I’ve had them on now for 3 weeks and have no issues whatsoever which is impressive since I am rough on my hands as a teacher and train 4-5 times a week. Very impressed!

    Great quality base coat

    I used this as my nails are weak and it definitely felt more solid. Felt a little strange at first when im used to using a normal base coat that is also clear. The colour is a nice nude. I followed with nude builder gel, forever and always, then pearlescent moonstone.
