You’ve hit on a really important part of any long-lasting manicure! A lot of people overlook how crucial the base and top coats are. For a base coat, I usually recommend going for one that suits your nail type. If you have brittle nails, a strengthening base coat with ingredients like biotin or keratin can help a lot. If your nails tend to peel, look for a bonding base coat, as it creates a better adhesive layer for your nail polish. For the top coat, quick-dry options are great if you're in a hurry, but I find that traditional glossy or gel-like top coats tend to offer better protection against chips and scratches. If you want to try out some custom nail decals or prints to add even more flair to your designs, you might find Kodi professional. They provide high-quality printing services that could be great for nail art enthusiasts looking to experiment with unique designs.
