Our experts have thoroughly examined the process of creating a good base coat and have found that butter LONDON's base coat is exceptional. In fact, this exact nail polish recently ranked as our best base coat for weak nails. Acting like a crystal clear suit of armor, it provides excellent protection for your nails. This base coat is enriched with high-quality ingredients such as horsetail extract, biotin, vitamin B, and calcium, making it the perfect solution for brittle and weak nails.

Not only can it prevent any dreaded chips, but it also smooths uneven ridges on your nail beds for a perfect finish. Even when you’re not in the mood to paint our nails, or you’re healing them in between appointments, a speedy layer of this powerhouse will have your nails looking strong and healthy in no time.

To get started, give your hands a thorough clean and pat them dry. Paint a thin layer on each finger and leave your hands to dry. Then, apply your nail polish color of choice—we recommend your favorite Patent Shine 10X Nail Lacquer hue—followed by the brand’s Hardwear Shine UV Topcoat for that final layer of protection. 

Butter LONDON prides itself on its premium nail lacquer selection, promising customers a wide range of colors with incomparable quality and finish. It was elevated to cult status when its 3-Free nail lacquers transitioned into 10-Free, a range of nail polish that uses less toxic chemicals in its formula compared to your everyday brand.
