- Glossify Basic Base Coat, 15ml
- Professional HEMA-free gel base coat
- 60-second cure under UV or LED
- Vegan and cruelty-free
Glossify Basic Base Coat is a 15ml bottle of professional HEMA-free gel base coat — the foundation prep-chain product that sits between the natural nail (after prep) and the coloured gel polish, giving the gel manicure proper adhesion and structural base for the coloured layers. HEMA (hydroxyethyl methacrylate) is the specific chemical in many gel formulations that most commonly triggers acrylate allergy reactions in sensitised individuals; a HEMA-free base coat means the whole workflow can be built HEMA-free when paired with HEMA-free coloured gel polish (like the Glossify HEMA-free coloured range covered elsewhere). Glossify quote a 60-second cure time and up to 65 sets per bottle — that gives significant working-supply life for regular salon use. Cures under UV or LED lamp. Cruelty-free per Glossify's manufacturer standards.

How to use
Complete standard prep work: cuticle work, light etching, and dehydrator per your usual prep chain. Apply a thin even coat of the Basic Base Coat with the brush directly from the bottle, working smoothly across each nail. Cap the free edge (brush a thin line along the front edge of the nail tip) to seal the base coat underneath the coloured layers and reduce chipping. Cure for 60 seconds under UV or LED lamp per the specific cure routine. Continue with your chosen HEMA-free coloured gel polish — for a fully HEMA-free workflow, pair with HEMA-free coloured gel polish and HEMA-free top coat. Standard soak-off removal with acetone at the end of service life.
Who it's for
This base coat is for professional nail techs and confident home users doing HEMA-free gel manicure work — either specifically for allergen-sensitive clients or as part of a general HEMA-free workflow choice. We've spent years helping clients in Codsall look and feel their best, and as a working salon, we know a proper HEMA-free workflow needs the base coat to be HEMA-free as well as the coloured polish — the base coat sits directly on the nail plate under the coloured layers, so if HEMA-free is important for a specific client, the entire chain (base coat, coloured polish, top coat) needs to be HEMA-free for the allergen-reduction benefit to be genuinely delivered. 65 sets per bottle gives real working-supply life for salons doing regular HEMA-free service work.

For professional and adult use. HEMA-free formulation reduces but does not eliminate all allergen risk — individuals with severe acrylate or nail-product allergies should consult a GP or dermatologist before use. Uncured gel can cause allergic sensitisation with prolonged repeated skin exposure regardless of HEMA-free formulation. Cures under UV or LED lamp — see the lamp safety guidance regarding UV/LED skin exposure and photosensitivity considerations. Avoid contact with skin around the nail during application to reduce risk of allergic sensitisation. For genuine HEMA-free workflow benefit, use HEMA-free products across the entire prep, colour and finish chain — pairing HEMA-free base coat with a HEMA-containing coloured polish reintroduces the allergen through the coloured layer. Acetone (used for soak-off removal) is highly flammable, keep away from heat and open flames, use in a well-ventilated area. Keep out of reach of children.
