If this helps me not break any nails, I — ๐ฒ
As all the time, don’t hearken to anything I’m saying ๐ and browse all manufacturer’s instructions before using any products, especially gel. So a lot of y’all really helpful I try a rubber base coat to stop my longer natural nails from breaking so I did a bunch of research and selected this one from a fellow content creator / business owner @Nailzkatkat . I’ll keep you updated on the way it lasts and if it actually goes well this is perhaps my latest base and I’ll just paint nail polish over it? I’ve seen other nail artists try this so I dunno. In any case, I hope you had an ideal week this week:)

I have a question tho,my skin under the nails are growing more than it should. It ain't painful or isn't causing any difficulty until, I decide to really chop my nail really short then the skin becomes an issue. No clue what to do!

I love hard gel , it's beautiful. However, it takes me forever to do it so I had to switch to dip powder because it was faster.

I just bought rubber base and a couple other gel products from born pretty.i can't wait to try it. My nails are tore up normally but more so from acrylic & polygel. Hopefully this will help .

Thankyou for actually showing how flexible your nails are and still are after putting the gel!!! I always thought I was doing something wrong

I switched to rubber gel when I heard that its flexibility can be useful for weak or soft nails, as typical base coat is more rigid and can peel right up if the nails are prone to bending – causing lifting and general damage in the process. My extensions have definitely felt more secure and lasted longer since I made the switch!

I'm a nail tech and when you have nails this lenght rubber base works amazing, but when your nails gets longer i recommend using builder gel ๐โค!

Girls just apply like regular gel polish and flip your nail upside down at the end. Donโt stress over it

Hi

Rubber base is not good for your nails cuz it has acids in it. They will become weak and twisted. And itโs a soft material so your nail wonโt become stronger
Try builder gel instead. Has no acids, so no damage to your nails. And itโs hard as polygel

What were you using to clean up your nails? If you don't mind me asking.
jnefitema yep
You did a very good job. Mines for the 1st time looked nothing like that. ๐

Bendy is good, bendy is less likely to break. Thatโs why strengtheners donโt work, they make the nail brittle and cause more breaks. Rubber base coat works as a shock absorber, you have the perfect nails to use it with.

Hey how did it work out for you?

rubber base is the only thing i use now. my nails used to break all the time and would not hold acrylics or other applications, they would always lift. but not this base ๐๐
