TNS Instant Grip Nail Polish Base Coat 10 ml

Instant Grip Base TNS is a professional, ultra-fast-drying, levelling nail base coat, designed to improve the adhesion of nail varnish. 

Thanks to its smoothing properties, it makes the surface smoother and more even before applying colour. This nail base coat combines excellent adhesion with a smoothing and self-levelling action, for a more durable, professional-looking manicure.

Instant Grip Base allows you to apply nail varnish immediately after application, without waiting for the base coat to dry completely, thereby speeding up the professional process.

The unique sticky grip technology creates a high-adhesion film that helps the coloured nail varnish adhere better to the nail surface. This improved adhesion helps to reduce chipping and premature lifting of the colour. 

The smoothing base formula optically evens out ridges, streaks and minor imperfections, preparing the nail for a more even application of colour. Enriched with Hexanal, plant proteins and AHAs, it helps to smooth the nail and optimally prepares it for the application of nail varnish.

It is the ideal base coat for nails with ridges, streaks or an uneven surface, and for improving the longevity of nail varnish on all nail types. 

Instant Grip Base air-dries, does not require a UV lamp and is applied before coloured nail varnish. After applying the colour, the finish can be completed with a top coat to protect the varnish, enhance its shine and further prolong its wear.

How important is it to apply a base coat before nail varnish?

Applying a base coat before nail varnish is a crucial step in achieving a more even, durable and long-lasting manicure. The base coat prepares the nail surface, improves the adhesion of the colour and helps reduce the risk of chipping and premature lifting.

Instant Grip Base offers an additional benefit: thanks to its smoothing base formula, it visually smooths out ridges and minor irregularities on the nail plate. The sticky grip technology promotes better adhesion of the nail varnish, for a more professional finish and a longer-lasting manicure.

Can I apply the nail varnish straight after the base coat?

Yes. The sticky grip technology creates a high-adhesion layer designed to bond with coloured nail varnish. For this reason, the colour can be applied immediately after applying the base coat, without waiting for it to dry completely, speeding up the manicure without compromising adhesion.

Can I use Instant Grip Base on its own, without nail varnish?

Yes. It can also be applied on its own to make the nail surface smoother and more even. However, it was primarily developed as a base coat to improve the adhesion and longevity of coloured nail varnish.

Why does my nail varnish not last very long?

How long your nail varnish lasts also depends on how well you prepare your nails. Using a professional base coat such as Instant Grip Base helps to create a more even surface and improve the adhesion of the nail varnish, resulting in a longer-lasting manicure.

My nail varnish chips after a few days: how can I prevent this?

One of the most common causes is poor adhesion of the nail varnish to the nail. Instant Grip creates a high-adhesion film that improves the colour’s hold. This reduces the risk of chipping and keeps your manicure looking better for longer.

Why does my nail varnish always chip at the tips of my nails?

The tip of the nail is the area most exposed to knocks and rubbing. A high-adhesion base coat such as Instant Grip Base improves the adhesion of the nail varnish, helping to reduce the risk of chipping in precisely those areas under the most stress.

Is it also suitable for ridged or streaked nails?

Yes. The smoothing base formula has a smoothing and self-levelling action that helps to even out the nail surface, visually reducing ridges, streaks and minor imperfections. The nail polish finish is therefore more even and looks more professional.

Is it suitable for nails that tend to flake?

Yes. It is particularly suitable for brittle nails, those with an uneven surface or where the polish does not adhere well. The formula helps to create a more even base, promoting better colour retention.

What is the difference between a smoothing base coat and a traditional base coat?

A traditional base coat creates a separating layer between the nail and the polish. Instant Grip Base not only improves colour adhesion but also has a smoothing effect. It helps to even out the surface of the nail, visually reducing ridges and small irregularities. The result is a more even application and a more professional-looking manicure.
