- High adhesion
- HEMA-free and acid-free

NOVA Base & Shine is a combined base and top coat with an incredibly fast soak-off time of 7 minutes. It can be applied thinly without running into the sidewalls, offers high adhesion for long durability and a high-gloss, non-wipe-off shine.
Base & Shine can be used with NOVA gel polish colours and also with PRIMA gel polish colours.
HEMA-Free
NOVA Base & Shine is not hypoallergenic because it contains Hydroxypropyl Methacrylate (HPMA). However, it is HEMA-free and also free of acids that can cause onycholyis. We therefore do not recommend Base & Shine for those with HPMA allergy or unknown ingredient allergies, and recommend using PRIMA Base & Builder or the NOVA Rubber Bases instead.
Competitively priced and low allergy risk
NOVA has been purposely designed for cost-sensitive Students and new Nail Technicians. There is no other gel polish on the market today that provides the same performance, quality and safety, for a similar low price.
