OPI Nail Lacquer Base Coat | Nail Prep & Treatment Formulas | Helps Protect Nails & Extend Polish Wear | Chip Resistant, Prevents Discoloration

OPI has been my go-to polish brand for the last 20+ years. OPI products are always consistent, high quality, and long lasting in terms of wear. I have natural nails, so OPI’s Natural Nail Base Coat is a solid pick for my nails. This is the only base coat I’ve found that applies evenly and dries rapidly without any micro bubbles. Paired with an eye-catching OPI Nail Lacquer and the OG OPI Top Coat makes for a spectacular natural-nail manicure! The length and width of the brush is just right and very easy to work with, it’s one of the things I like about OPI products. Lastly, I do suggest ordering a replacement bottle around the half-way mark. It can begin to become harder to evenly coat the brush leading to brush marks and other issues. The product I received was fresh, authentic, and top-quality. Pro Tip: NEVER expose to heat. It will ensure the next manicure is full of micro bubbling and orange peel.

The OPI Natural Nail Base Coat caught my eye as I was looking for a good quality base coat to add to my nail care routine. Its reputation for providing a nice foundation for nail polish made it a must-try. Upon using it, I immediately appreciated its thin consistency, which made application smooth and easy without any goopiness. It lays down a nice base, ensuring that the color polish that goes on top looks even and adheres well. However, there are a couple of drawbacks. The brush design is somewhat flawed; it doesn't reach all the way down to the bottom of the bottle. This means those last few drops, which you're essentially paying for, become frustratingly unreachable as you near the end. Additionally, the cost factor is a bit puzzling. Lacquer polish, including this OPI base coat, tends to be pricier than gel polish. I've found sets of gel polish for less than the price of one bottle of this lacquer base coat, which makes me question the pricing strategy. Despite its high quality, the value proposition becomes a bit skewed when you consider the cost and the design oversight with the brush. In summary, the OPI Natural Nail Base Coat serves its purpose well with a few caveats. If you're willing to overlook the brush issue and are okay with the higher price point compared to gel options, it's a solid choice for ensuring your nail polish looks its best.

Good product

Best base coat I’ve used. Dries fast and smooth but still has a very light texture for good adherence. My polish resists chipping much longer, even though I’m prone to chips and peeling. Just buy it.

Makes polish look great & protects my nails from dark stains!

Great base coat protection to nail bed no discoloration to nail bed, thin coat makes color of polish glide on

I really like this base coat. I have very thin nails and can’t do gel nails anymore. I use it with a nail strengthener and before finding this OPI only had a couple days of wear before chipping and pealing with this OPI base coat I’m getting 5 days of wear…very durable! Leaves a nice shine with along with my top coat. Drys within a couple minutes so I can proceed with my top coat/ strengthener.

This seems to help my nails stay strong and grown without breaking.

Fantástica base para aplicar en las uñas. Las protege muy bien y evita que así amarilleen las uñas. La textura es perfecta y seca rapidísimo.
