A base coat for nail polish will make your nail polish last longer. This is because base coats contain more cellulose chemicals to make the product sticky. The product sticks to the nail and polish. This allows the polish to be more flexible and allows the base coat to move with the nail as it bends. Without this sticky, elastic surface for the color to adhere to, the manicure would chip a lot faster. Per Murphy (Do You Really Need to Use Basecoat, 2015), Dr. Heidi Waldorf, director of laser and cosmetic dermatology at Mount Sinai Hospital in New York City stated, “They stick to the nail below and the polish above to prolong the manicure, and allow for enough flexibility to move with the nail as it bends.”

To increase customer satisfaction and minimize profit loss, David's Bridal has instituted a rigorous pre-inspection process that allows surface contaminates to be detected prior to dyeing. Since the fabric of our shoes contains a special chemical called an optical brightener, they glow under ultraviolet light. Where glue is present, the fabric will not glow as brightly as in the surrounding areas. Therefore, newly provided Ultraviolet lamps allow the consultant to identify contaminants, prior to dye application. Unfortunately, this ultraviolet device is unable to detect surface oils and dirt. If shoes are tried on without foot stockings and there is a transfer of oils and perspiration to a dyeable portion of the shoe, those areas may dye a different color. Additionally, if a consultant has hand lotion or grease on her hands and attempts to dye, the dye may not cover the shoes evenly. For best results, consultants must have clean, oil-free hands when handling dyeable shoes. (David's Shoe Dye manual pg. 2)
Many girls like to use nail polish to paint their nails, but how about as a libation? This is the case for 25-year-old Bertha, who drinks nail polish when she gets thirsty. Her favorite "flavors" are anything with glitter and the color blue.
Since glitter is so hard to remove, I started with two coats of a glue-based base coat. After that dried, I painted two coats of Cover Girl's Lav-endure polish. I was disappointed with the consistency of this polish which was streaky and thin. After two coats, there were splotchy streaks that showed some of the nail underneath. I would have needed three or four coats for a perfectly opaque manicure. Even though I have a large selection of Cover Girl polishes, I tend to avoid using them unless I need a specific color, or I'm using it as a base of sorts. In this case, the lavender was only a base for the glitters.

The art of polishing nails has been around for centuries for both men and women. Nail polish or nail stain, as it was known for many years ago, started out being natural in formula. However, as the years have progressed, nail polish formulas have become more intricate including chemicals. As the years have passed, the color and purpose of polishing nails has expanded to not only nobles or those of high rank/station, but also everyday people. There are many different ingredients in today’s nail polishes.
