louuuiiis asked: Hi:) I absolutely love your designs! They're lovely! My questions is that I'm looking for a great base coat. Do you know any good ones? Also, I haven't always been into nail art, and only a year ago I found out about base coat's existence. My nails are now a bit yellow :/ have you tried that, or maybe you know how to get rid of the yellow colour. Thank you:)

Hi, thank you so much! The base coat I use almost exclusively is OPI Nail Envy. My nails used to be super weak, peely and sad but Nail Envy helped them A LOT. I also just started using OPI Natural Nail base coat occasionally and I like it so far - it’s my little sister’s very favorite base coat. CND Stickey is an excellent base coat for making your manicures last, but it RUINED my nails - I used it a few times and suddenly all my nails started peeling and breaking way worse than before. I’ve read reviews online and I know I’m not the only person this has happened to, but I also know that plenty of people use that base coat with no problem so it might be worth a try for you!

As far as yellowing, for some reason my nails hardly ever yellow so I rarely think about it. When they do get a little yellow, I use a buffing block I got at Sally Beauty and lightly buff them, which works perfectly for me!
