Not every manicure wants the same foundation. The classic Base Coat Gel Polish is the everyday pick: it gives colour a smooth surface to grip and cures in 60 seconds. The Rubber Base Coat is thicker and more flexible, so it bends with soft, thin or splitting nails rather than chipping or cracking. For fast colour changes there's the Peel Off Base Coat, which air-dries with no lamp, wears for up to a week and peels away cleanly. If you're building length, Clear 5-In-1 Builder Gel is your base under any builder gel. And if your nails are weak or damaged, run a 14-day Double Bond Nail Treatment cycle before you go back to gel.
Top coats in every finish
Your top coat decides the final look. The bestselling No Wipe Top Coat cures to a glassy, high-shine finish with no tacky layer to remove. The Top Coat Gel Polish gives the same protection and is wiped with Prep & Wipe once cured. For something softer, the Matte and Speckled Matte No Wipe Top Coats turn any shade velvety. There are glitter top coats too, plus heart confetti, iridescent and gold, silver or rose gold flake finishes that do the work of nail art on their own. All cure in 60 seconds. Want the pair? The Base & Top Coat Duo and the Base & No Wipe Top Coat Duo save you buying separately, and the top coats collection has the finishes on their own. When it's time for a change, buff the top coat to break the seal, then soak and gently scrape the softened gel away.
