OPI Natural Nail Base Coat for Nail Polish is the base coat OPI designs to go under its Nail Lacquer shades, as the first step of a longer-lasting manicure. One thin, even layer on properly prepped nails gives your color something solid to stick to and helps it resist chipping. OPI describes the base coat as the foundation for your color, while the top coat seals it in.
Key Benefits
- Foundation for color: one coat before your nail lacquer helps the color adhere to the nail.
- Longer-lasting manicure: the first step of the OPI three-step system for extended wear and shine.
- Preps and protects: a light layer between the natural nail and the color.
- Made for OPI Nail Lacquer: designed to be used under OPI Nail Lacquer shades.
- Works with OPI Top Coat: the two keep your shade true to color and help it last.
Key Ingredients
OPI does not single out an active ingredient for its base coat. Nitrocellulose and a tosylamide/epoxy resin form the thin film on the nail, with polyvinyl butyral and camphor, in a base of ethyl acetate, alcohol and butyl acetate. A touch of red and violet pigment completes the formula.
OPI pairs it with two coats of Nail Lacquer and OPI Top Coat for a complete manicure. Discover the full OPI range of nail lacquers and nail care.
How to Use
Prep clean, dry natural nails so the lacquer can adhere. Apply one thin, even coat of OPI Natural Nail Base Coat and let it dry completely. Shake your OPI Nail Lacquer shade, apply two thin coats, capping the free edge of each nail to help the color resist chipping, then finish with one coat of OPI Top Coat. Use it at the start of every manicure.
