Base Coat Application

Base Coat- the first layer of paint applied

to the nail to protect them from
discoloration.
Applying a base coat is an essential step in nail care as it
helps to protect and strengthen the nails, prevent
discoloration and staining, and improve the overall
appearance of the nails. Some of the key benefits of using a
base coat include:

1.Protecting the nails from damage:

A base coat acts as a barrier between the nail and
the nail polish, preventing the polish from coming into direct
contact with the nail. This helps to prevent the nail from
becoming stained or discolored, and also protects it from
damage caused by harsh chemicals in the nail polish.
2.Improving the longevity of the nail polish:

By providing a smooth, even surface for the

nail polish to adhere to, a base coat can help to
improve the longevity of the polish. This means
that the nail polish will last longer without
chipping or peeling, which can save time and
money in the long run.
3. Strengthening the nails:
Many base coats contain ingredients
that help to strengthen the nails, such as
keratin or calcium. These ingredients can
help to make the nails stronger and more
resilient, which can reduce the risk of
breakage and splitting.
4.Enhancing the appearance of the nails:
A base coat can help to smooth out any
ridges or bumps on the surface of the nail,
creating a more even and polished
appearance. This can make the nails look
healthier and more attractive.
