Why do nails lift easily in the Japanese market? And why does this "SUPER BASE COAT" resist lifting?
In the Japanese market, there are extremely high demands for nail finish,
and one of the most frequently heard concerns is—
👉 the problem of "lifting."
This is not merely a technical issue;
the environment, nail type, and product design are significantly involved.
🌧️ ① Japan's Unique Humid Environment
Japan experiences high humidity throughout the year,
especially during the rainy season and summer, when nail moisture content tends to increase.
As a result:
- Gel adhesion weakens
- Lifting becomes more likely due to post-curing shrinkage
- Longevity becomes unstable
👉 In other words,
regular bases often cannot withstand these conditions.
🧬 ② Characteristics of Japanese Nails
Generally, Japanese nails are:
- Thin and soft
- Prone to absorbing moisture
- Flexible
👉 This "softness" causes:
- Hard gels → Inability to follow nail movement
- → Lifting from the cuticle and sides
⚠️ ③ Common Causes of Lifting
Frequently observed cases include:
- Base gels with insufficient adhesion
- Viscosity too low to stay in place
- Incompatibility with the nail type
- Lack of flexibility
👉 Conclusion:
"Base selection" is almost entirely decisive.
