The difference between nail base glue and topcoat. How long does it take for nail base glue to dry?

When doing manicure, I found that they would apply base coat and top coat. Are these two the same material? What is the difference between base coat and top coat? How long does it take to dry the nails?

1. Different functions

Nail base gel: Nail base gel is an adhesive. After polishing, you must first apply nail base gel, which mainly protects the nails, isolates the erosion of nail polish, and plays a transition role. It can also be used as an adhesive to enhance the adhesion of nail polish on the nails. At the same time, evenly applying the base gel can serve as a foundation for the subsequent application of nail polish.

Nail seal: The seal plays a consolidating role, which can consolidate the nail pattern and style, making the nail more durable. Without the seal, the nail will be easily worn out.

2. Different order of use

Nail base is usually used after applying the desiccant to play an over-protective role. The sealer is the last step of the manicure and plays a consolidating role.

Generally, the base glue and the sealant are transparent and packaged in separate bottles. There are also base glue and sealant bottles on the market, which can be used as both base glue and sealant. Generally speaking, the materials used for base glue and sealant of different manufacturers are different. If they are mixed, the mutual adhesion between the color glue and the base glue will be affected, which may cause the glue to fall off. It is generally not recommended to use base glue and sealant from different manufacturers. It is best to use base glue and sealant from different manufacturers.

Bake the nail base gel for 10-15 minutes. The nail base gel needs to be baked dry, otherwise the base gel and the nail polish to be used later will mix together, resulting in uneven color of the nail polish. In order to make the nail base gel dry faster, it is necessary to bake the nail base gel before applying the nail polish. The whole process takes about 10-15 minutes.

Normal process, brush the base glue, then see the thickness of the fingernails, if it is thin, apply a layer of reinforcing glue. Then apply the color glue and the top coat. If the base glue is not used directly, it does not matter. The nail base glue plays a transitional role. How to use: first apply a layer of durable base glue, then apply nail polish, and finally apply a layer of top coat glue.

Nail polish is harmless to the human body.

In fact, these raw materials should have some biological toxicity, but nail polish is different from other nail polishes, and its biological materials are more environmentally friendly. So you don’t have to worry too much about whether nail polish is harmful, because you can also smell that nail polish smells good, but ordinary nail polish smells like a chemical agent.
