TOUCH - Cover Base Menthol, 13ml

A camouflage base with rich, shimmer-infused pigment in a blue tone — part of TOUCH's Cover Base collection, designed to work as a foundation for a wide range of designs without weighing down the nail. The coating shifts gently in ordinary daylight and shimmers vividly under direct sun or lamp light.

Why Cover Base Works This Way

Medium-thick consistency lays down easily and self-levels well on the nail plate. Applied with a brush, it cures in a UV/LED lamp in just 30-60 seconds, transforming into a durable, glossy finish.

3. Remove germs, excess moisture, and impurities with an antiseptic and degreaser
4. Apply an acid primer or ultrabond before the base for longer-lasting wear
5. Build a neutral underlayer to protect the nail from the pigment

FAQ

Does Menthol's shimmer show differently depending on lighting?
Yes, it reads as a gentle shift under ordinary daylight and a more noticeable, magical shimmer under direct sun or bright lamp light.

Why is a neutral underlayer recommended before applying this base?
It protects the natural nail from the pigment, which matters especially with richly pigmented shades like this one.
