Rubber Base or Fiber Base
If you want beautiful, strong, and well-groomed nails, the right base is essential. In today's blog post, we explain the difference between rubber base and fiber base —and which base is ideal for which nail type.
What is a rubber base?
The Rubber Base is an elastic, flexible base coat, especially recommended for thin, brittle, or soft nails . It adapts to the natural movement of the nail, preventing it or the polish from cracking.
Advantages of the Rubber Base:
- Ideal for weak, flexible nails
- Elastic & flexible – no chipping or tearing
- Self-leveling – perfect construction without unevenness
- Gentle removal (soak off) – no aggressive filing necessary
✅ Perfect for beginners and anyone who works with gel polish or shellac.
What is a fiber base?
The Fiber Base contains fine fiberglass particles that give the base exceptional stability. It's ideal for strong, yet stressed nails or for clients who desire a long-lasting, strong model.
Advantages of the Fiber Base:
- Extremely durable and stable
- Ideal for brittle, splintering nails
- Suitable for easy nail extension with stencil
- Long-lasting – perfect for customers who want to refill less often
✅ Great for professionals and for anyone who wants solid, durable reinforcement.
