The essential first step for flawless, long lasting dip enhancements
Designed for nail technicians who demand consistency, control, and superior adhesion, this expertly formulated base coat delivers the perfect foundation for seamless powder application and durable wear.
In a busy salon environment, performance matters. This base coat has been crafted to optimise efficiency while maintaining exceptional results. Its carefully balanced viscosity allows for smooth, even application without flooding the cuticle, giving you complete control over every set. The result is a perfectly prepped surface that grips dipping powder effortlessly, reducing lifting and ensuring a strong, chip resistant finish that your clients will love.
Features and Benefits:
- The OPI Dipping Powder Base Coat is more than just a bonding layer. It is a professional tool designed to enhance your entire dipping service.
- First, it provides superior adhesion. The formula is engineered to create a secure bond between the natural nail and dipping powder, helping to minimise lifting and extend wear time. This means fewer repairs and happier clients who enjoy long lasting, salon quality nails.
- Second, it offers precision application. The brush is designed for controlled product placement, allowing nail technicians to work close to the cuticle without risk of over application. This ensures a neat, clean finish every time, even on intricate or detailed sets.
- Third, it supports a lightweight yet durable structure. When used within the OPI dipping system, this base coat helps create strong overlays that feel comfortable on the natural nail while maintaining resilience against everyday wear.
- Another key benefit is its quick setting nature. In a fast paced salon setting, time is money. This base coat works efficiently with dipping powders to streamline your service time without compromising on quality.
- It also enhances colour payoff. By providing a smooth and even base, it allows dipping powders to adhere uniformly, resulting in richer pigmentation and a more consistent finish across every nail.
- Finally, it is compatible with professional salon protocols. Whether you are offering classic overlays, pink and white systems, or creative nail art, this base coat integrates seamlessly into your workflow.
How to Use:
For optimal professional results, follow these detailed steps:
- Begin with thorough nail preparation. Sanitise hands and cleanse the nail plate. Push back cuticles and remove any non living tissue.
- Shape the natural nail and gently buff the surface to remove shine. Ensure the nail is clean and free from dust and oils.
- Apply a nail dehydrator or prep solution if required to maximise adhesion.
- Apply a thin, even layer of OPI Dipping Powder Base Coat to the nail, working one nail at a time to maintain control.
- Immediately dip the nail into your chosen dipping powder at a 45 degree angle. Tap off excess powder gently.
- Repeat the base coat and dip process to build the desired strength and coverage.
- Once complete, follow with the appropriate activator, shaping, and finishing steps as per your dipping system protocol.
- Finish with a top coat for a high gloss, professional finish.
