Base & Top Coats

A long-lasting gel manicure begins and ends with the right base and top coat and no brand understands this better than Gelish. The Gelish top and base coat range is professionally formulated to work as a complete system with every Gelish Soak-Off Gel Polish shade, ensuring maximum adhesion, full-colour vibrancy, and a mirror-shine finish that lasts up to three weeks.

The Gelish Foundation Base Coat bonds to the natural nail to create the ideal surface for your gel colour. Applied correctly over a pH-balanced, prepped nail it prevents lifting, staining, and peeling, the most common causes of a gel manicure that does not last the full wear time.

At the finishing end of your manicure, the Gelish No Cleanse Top Coat is the professional standard. It seals your colour beneath a high-gloss, mirror-like shine that requires no inhibition layer wipe after curing, simply cure under your LED lamp and the finish is instantly dry, hard, and brilliant. It will not dull, chip, or peel for the full duration of wear.

Beyond the essentials, the Gelish top and base coat range includes specialty products for specific nail needs: a matte top coat for a modern velvet finish, a strengthening base coat for thin or damaged nails, and pH Bond prep solution to cleanse and balance the nail plate before any gel application for maximum adhesion.

Never skip your base coat or top coat, these products are not optional extras, they are essential components of the Gelish system.
