AZUREBEAUTYDip Powder Base Coat 15 ml for Nail Dipping Powder Set French Nails Art Manicure Beginner DIY Salon

Product hold together well and works with other products. I just needed a bonding gloss because my current bottles glued shut but I have a ton of Serendipity activator and this works greats with it. It picked up my nail dip powder really well too!

Update: The key is to use the activator liberally! So I have been using the activator, letting it dry and then filing and shaping, and then liberally apply for activator before applying top coat. This results in quick drying, perfectly shiny nails! Another thing I noticed that really solved any lifting problems was slowly building the foundation in the first few coats, starting out by only adding base coat and dipping the tip of your nail and working your down to the cuticle line over 2-4 more dips, depending on nail length.I’ve been doing dip nails for a few years now and usually use a combo of kiara sky and azure for the polish. I’m thinking the issue here either might be the activator (vs kiara sky’s seal protect) or there has been some change in formula since I last purchased this product. Normally I use base and top from azure and bond and seal protect from KS. Using all azure has resulted in thick, gummy nails. No matter how long I wait after applying the activator the dip is still rubbery and comes off in chunks when using the drill. I have tried applying it heavily and lightly and reapplying prior to top coat, but it never turns out. The activator never fully activated and the top coat always turns out looking wet, sticky, and dull.

great product for dip nails. Not too thick or too runny. Nice powder hold and quick absorption.

This isn’t as thick as other bases i have tried ! Will purchase again! Did get a little on my skin an it burned, but I’m sure that’s just a chemical response , but don’t put it on ur skin a you will be fine! 10/10

I have been using Kiara Sky products for years but finally got tired of the base drying out like clockwork 3 months after I opened the bottle resulting me in throwing out a ton of product so I wanted to try something new (no idea if this will dry out the same way but I'll report back). I used it with Kiara powder and sealant, which seemed to work just fine.I only have the Kiara Sky base to compare this to, but the Kiara Sky base hardens and is ready to be filed within minutes. This stuff takes so long, normally I will paint both hands and by the time I am done with the second hand, the first hand is ready to be filed. The first time I used this, I finished painting, which I do very slowly, and started filing the first hand but it was still soft in some places and the file messed those parts up. The second time I used it I waited 20 minutes after applying and it seemed to have hardened by then but having to wait 20 minutes after applying is less than ideal. Maybe I can cut that down to 10, I'll experiment with it eventually.Other than that issue, the base seems to be pretty decent. Seems to apply thinner than the Kiara, which is a positive in my opinion. If this manages to stay useable for more than three months I will likely repurchase and deal with the dry time but if not I'm going back to Kiara, or trying a new product.

I've been doing my own dip nails at home for about 5 years now and this Azure base coat is my favorite to use. It goes on easily, the bottle doesn't get clumped up, and it just works really well. I use this along with the Azure activator and Azure powders and they are my favorite.

Easy to use and economical too!

I love this brand. All my nail stuff is from this brand and it never disappoints!
