GAOYPeel Off Gel Base Coat for Gel Nail Polish, 16ml Peelable Clear Foundation for Use with UV LED Nail Lamp

Update January 10, 2025: Another tip & a temporary nail-fix trick.I now warm this bottle of gel before I use it. It thins it out slightly and it's much easier to apply.I pinched a nail mid November doing hardcore yardwork. As it grew out, it had a weak area which eventually split and left me with a severely angled nail and a tender spot. I waited a week, then filed & prepped the remaining nail. I applied this gel base over the nail & carefully filled in the missing part at the same time. Went on to build it up with color and a top coat. Didn't think it would work, but it did. I now have a partial false nail that is not only protecting my nail bed, but it's allowing the nail to grow back over it strong & healthy. My Mom couldn't tell which nail was the broken one. It didn't hurt curing it and it peels off easily without causing discomfort or doing any further damage. **Added a pic (the green glitter polish) to show the angle of a broken/short nail that was hidden & repaired using this peel off base coat, 2 coats of green & a top coat**I'm sold on this gel!!Update August 2, 2024: Latest mani is now 15 days out & still going strong. I've pulled weeds, washed dishes, colored my hair, peeled stickers off of things. Not a single chip or any lifting. Wow!! I've discovered that using a dehydrator before applying this gel makes a huge difference. Also, don't cap the ends of your nails with this or apply right up to the edges because that's what makes it pop off with the slightest little bump. Cap your nails with color & top coat. The gel will still peel off easily. The more I work with this gel, the better it gets.OG Review: When I was getting professional manis, I only wore a French. I liked all of the available color options, but didn't want to commit to one that I'd want to change soon after. I'd also make sure each French lasted for 4ish weeks because the expense added up. After 2020, I went the DIY route & my French looked great, but it was difficult to remove the builder gel & it took alot of time to prep my nails for a fill.I bought this out of curiosity & honestly, I thought it was too good to be true. I was expecting a total disaster, but this really makes gel polish removal fast & easy. When I was ready, they lifted right off without needing to pry & scrape. It took about 1-2 minutes to remove all ten nails. See the attached pictures of the before & after.For this white mani, I started out by using a nail dehydrator on clean prepped nails, then one coat of this base. It will self-level, just make sure not to go too thick with it or it will come off on its own rather quickly after the final cure. I cured this base for 90 seconds & it was still slightly tacky. It needs to stay like that so that whatever you apply on top of it bonds well. It also helps to layer your gel polish color with at least 2 coats & then follow up with 2 thin top coats to finish so that there's enough there to peel off. I used Beetles for a top coat because I already had it. As long as it's UV gel polish, they all work together. No chipping, cracking or lifting with this mani. My nails are 12 days out and they probably would've lasted a bit longer, but I wanted to change my polish color.For the next mani, my nails only needed to be slightly trimmed, shaped, the surface gone over with a sanding block & they were ready. My second peel-off mani was also successful. That color was only meant to wear for a few days & again, very little effort to remove it.This product is a total gamechanger and a great way to save money, stay home and do your nails on your own time. I've ordered all the cool colors I've always wanted to wear knowing I can change them without much fuss. Once you invest in all of the products & a good LED lamp, everything pays for itself 10 times over.I've tried alot of home gel products & techniques over the last 4 years & this one is my new fave.

I've been on the hunt for a reliable peel-off base coat for ages, and I've finally found the holy grail! This peel-off base nail polish is everything I've been searching for.First off, the application was a breeze. The consistency is absolutely perfect – not too thin that it runs everywhere, and not too thick that it gloops and clumps. It went on smoothly and evenly, creating a great base for my manicure.Most importantly, it does exactly what it promises! I needed a peel-off base that would allow for easy removal without damaging my nails, and this product delivered. When it was time to change my polish, it peeled off cleanly and effortlessly, lifting the polish without taking layers of my natural nail with it. This is a huge win for anyone who loves changing their nail looks frequently but wants to maintain healthy nails.Honestly, I'm blown away by how easy and effective this product is. It's an amazing peel-off base coat that I would absolutely recommend to anyone looking for a hassle-free removal experience. If you’re tired of soaking and scraping, give this a try – you won't be disappointed!

This peelable base is a TIME SAVER! Peels off and no damage at all to my natural nails! This is only my second time using it, but I already love it! It is very thick, but you can thin it on the side of the bottle before applying to your nails.The first time I was only able to get one days wear out of it before it peeled off in sheets. Beginners mistake, as I probably shouldn’t have washed dishes so soon. I also should have followed other reviewers advice, and not place it all the way to the tip for better wear. The second time I did just that, plus applied a foundation base over that all the way to the tip. Then followed with two coats of polish and topcoat, capping the ends. I am on day 7 and have only had 1 nail partially peel after returning to work. Just peeled the rest and redid it. Again, no damage to the nail which makes me so happy!Now I can look forward to doing my nails! No longer have to worry about sanding the topcoat down too far and hitting my actual nail. No more soaking, dust flying, nothing! Just peel, toss and start all over! I am excited that I can finally use all the gel polish/glitters I have from the starter kits I had purchased from Amazon! I also had no problem applying the foil glue and foil for an accent nail over this base either! I used both Beetles brand polish and Gaoy glitter polish.

Works great! It's thick so you can place it exactly where you want it to be and it won't bleed onto the rest of the nail before curing, and it peels up so easily. I kept it a few mm away from my cuticle so I could seal it down with the color gel I used, and I think that really helped in extending the longevity. I peeled it off at two weeks but I'm sure I could've gotten longer out of them. Because I sealed the cuticle I had to start my peels from the sides or free edges of my nails, so if you want an even sturdier application, don't apply all the way to all edges and make sure to seal the free edge. This has made removal (my least favorite part of doing my nails) so easy.

Good base but the peel isn’t consistent throughout the nail. Kind of damages your nail it seems like

This will not come off as stated. I read the instructions (vague as they are). Do I need to add a peel off top coat or use NO top coat??? I still had to use no soak topical polish remover AND soak in 100% acetone and it was stubborn to come off. Also, damaged my nails in the process.

I’ve always struggled with peeling off my gels and ruining my nails, but this peel off base coat has truly saved my nails! It works so well! I can get about 8-9 days (which is reall good for me!) retention and then peel all my nails off with zero to minimal damage.I do minor prep, a light buffing and opi bondaid and it works perfectly for me)The photo is immediately after removing a set. No damage!
