FAQs
Lourian® Base Gel is formulated with a low-acid polymer system that enhances adhesion without compromising nail health. Its superior self-leveling and flexibility reduce lifting and chipping while creating a smooth, even foundation for color application.
This is a soak-off formula designed for gentle removal. It avoids the over-curing “sealing effect” found in some base gels, reducing the risk of nail plate damage or excessive buffing during removal.
Yes. It provides excellent intercoat adhesion and serves as a stable foundation beneath calcium-infused gels, rubber base gels, or builder bases, enhancing structural integrity without affecting flexibility or buildability.
On oily, soft, or compromised nails, pre-treat with Lourian® pH balancer or primer for optimal results. The flexible structure adapts well to nail movement, minimizing breakage or peeling.
Cure under LED (48W or higher) for 60 seconds. The surface should remain tacky due to the inhibition layer but feel set and stable. Under-curing compromises adhesion and color performance.
It is not intended for extensions or sculpting. For those purposes, use Lourian® Builder Gel or Rubber Base Gel layered over this base for enhanced strength and form retention.
