FAQs

How long does the Mylee Gel Polish Base Coat last?

When applied correctly and used with Mylee gel polish and top coat, the base coat supports a manicure that can last up to three weeks.

Can I use this base coat with regular nail polish?

This base coat is specifically formulated for gel polish systems and requires curing under an LED lamp. It is not designed for use with regular air-drying nail polishes.

What should I do if I get the base coat on my skin?

Wipe away any excess product immediately with a clean, lint-free wipe. Avoid applying to the skin. If irritation occurs, cease use and consult a healthcare professional.

How do I properly prepare my nails before applying the base coat?

Nails should be clean, dry, and free from natural oils. Gently buff the surface of the nail with a fine-grit file to create a slightly rough texture for better adhesion.

Can this base coat be used with any brand of gel polish?

While it is designed to work best with Mylee MyGel products, it may be compatible with other gel polish brands. However, optimal performance and longevity are best achieved within the Mylee system.

Why is this product non-returnable?

The product is non-returnable for hygiene reasons, similar to many cosmetic and personal care items.

Troubleshooting

Product does not cure properly or remains tacky

Ensure you are using an LED lamp and that it is functioning correctly. Check that the base coat was applied thinly and evenly. Verify the curing time meets the product's requirements.

Gel polish chips or peels prematurely

Ensure nails were properly prepped (cleaned, filed, and oil-free). Apply the base coat thinly, ensuring it does not touch the skin or cuticle. Ensure proper curing of each layer, including the base coat.

Allergic reaction or skin irritation

Immediately cease application and remove the product. Avoid skin contact during application by using a precise technique or protective barriers. Consult a healthcare professional if irritation persists.

Base coat is difficult to apply smoothly

Ensure the bottle has not been over-agitated. Apply in thin coats. If the product is too thick, it may be old or exposed to heat; store as recommended.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

  1. Ensure nails are clean, dry, and free of oils. Gently buff the nail surface with a nail file to create a smooth canvas.
  2. Apply a thin, even layer of the Mylee Gel Polish Base Coat to the nail plate, avoiding the cuticle and surrounding skin.

Compatibility:

  • This base coat is designed to work optimally with the Mylee MyGel range of gel polishes and top coats.
