Rubber Base Coat

I ordered this after seeing someone using it on a FB video. It looked very easy to use and was said to be better for your nails than acrylic. I stopped going to the salon about a year ago because they keep raising their prices for the same service that I've been getting for over 30 years. It's up to a ridiculous $55 before tip! Not to mention having to make an appointment then driving there. I loved my nail girl to pieces, been going to her for 10 years, but enough is enough! So with all that being said I have to say that I've finally found what's right for me. I tried the poly-gel in the tube/jar, didn't like it, I've also done my own acrylic but that smell is the worst and takes me hours. This brush on gel is so far the best. As you can see from my pics I've had these on for 13 days only having to fix one and that was because I put that particular nail on too thin. I'm VERY rough on my nails. I garden everyday, been picking weeds for the last 2 weeks and my hands are constantly in water. Either washing my hands or using the garden hose, I always have wet hands. My thumbs have a tip on them from the last time I did my nails with acrylic and they are on so good I didn't want to disturb them. I dremmled them then applied the brush on gel. They're on there soooo good! Today when I replaced my point finger I did use a tip because I ripped my own nail right off trying to take the gel off. Which brings me to the only negative- I couldn't get it off to save my life. I did try soaking it off with acetone, I may not have given it enough time, but it didn't want to come off. I'll work on that with the other 7 when I'm in need of a fill or replacement. I'll try to remember to update. Also, I couldn't believe I picked the color on the first try. This is my favorite nail color (looks exactly like OPI bubble bath!) so I don't need a polish just a top coat. I bought a sparkly top coat and it's perfect for me. There's a learning curve but nothing like learning to apply acrylic. So happy with this product and it's SO INEXPENSIVE!

This rubber base is everything! I have been using it for close to 2 months now and I am very happy with results. I used 1 thin layer at first but then have done a proper manicure to see how long it will last. First picture is on a day 2 (used natural nude pink, which is so on trend if you want to do the lipgloss manicure) and second on day 32 (here I added a layer of gel polish - creme de la femme by Gelish). I did fills at 2 and 4 weeks. There is no lifting if you prep your nails properly (clean nail bed, dehydrate and apply gel base - I use modelones). It does not self level as good as modelones builder gel I have used before, but I will take it given the benefit of growing long nails! It is easy to buff and shape. Colors...I have purchased set of 3 mini pinks and 3 mini nudes that is no longer offered. The pinks are very pink! and all 3 looked similar to the pictured one, except one had added shimmer. Nudes are all beautiful! Also purchased milky white (looks just like pictured) and natural (that one I did not love it looked like light pastel orange next to my skin tone). Please note, this is not a nail conditioner! It helps to grow nails by protecting them, giving them flexibility and strength. If you pick on your nails and peel it off it will cause damage as any UV/ LED gel!

I wanted to find something I could use to grow out my nails, but not extend them right off the bat. I wanted to embrace my nub fingers lol I found this product, bought it because it was under ten dollars and I'm SO happy I did! If you've used gel polish before, you can use it the same way BUT this is MUCH thicker than a gel polish. I found that it took a few times, and a few YouTube videos later, to figure out the best method for me. And once I did a full manicure took be less than 45 minutes. Which I feel is really good! I want to give some tips for people! So bare with me: First, your prep is KEY. Just like with any nail extension, you need to prep for it to last. So removed prior product off, buff the nail (gently, I find that it sticks pretty well to smooth nails but having them buffed is better), use a dehydrated (I use acetone), prime and apply a base coat. I shape the nail AFTER I apply base coat because I have VERY thin nails, so having the base coat helps my nails during the shaping. Second, apply a THIN coat all over the nail first. And since it's a thick gel you have to get a lot of it off in order to get a thin layer. This is called your "slip layer". Once you have that down, DON'T cure it, go in with more product to make it thicker. Again, this is a bit of a learning curve so please don't get discouraged! Third, flip your nail over once you think you have enough product on your nail (this is before curing). This will allow gravity to work it's magic and help the product spread out so it's not flooding the side walls. Fourth, cure after every nail. I find that works the best. Fifth, if you have a thicker nail than you want after curing, THAT IS OKAY! This product can be filed down! Just be careful when doing so, so you don't file too much! Okay I think that's enough tips! LOL Go on YouTube for before tips! The color I bought was Nude and it was the PERFECT shade for my skin tone. It was like my natural nail color but better. Overall I love this product! With practice it's easy to use, removing it is easy once you know how to do it. 10/10 would recommend!!

Déçue.. Pas facile d'étaler sur les ongles

Perfect!!! Easy to apply. Was worried it looked little orange in the bottle BUT it came out exactly as I imagined. 💯 💯 recommend

This builder in a bottle rubber base coat is amazing, the quality is top notch and the colour is so so cute. I use it all the time. It’s so easy to use and doesn’t peel if you prep your nails properly. It’s perfect for strengthening your nails and also adding the cute touch of colour when you don’t feel like painting them after adding this rubber base coat.

Buen producto y satisfecho con la compra. Agradecido.
