Water Drops Base Makear 8 ml
Scratch Base – base for the “scratch” effect and water drop nails
Scratch Base is a specialist nail art base designed for creating the “scratch” effect and the water drop effect on nails. The product allows you to achieve fashionable, textured 3D nail art that adds depth, dimension and a professional finish to the styling.
One of the most popular ways to use Scratch Base is to create the water drop effect. After applying and curing the base, simply apply a top coat over it, wait for a moment, and irregular drops will start to form on the surface. This creates a dimensional, fresh and eye-catching effect — without manually painting each drop.
The Water Drop effect gives nails a wet, three-dimensional look, resembling dew or raindrops on the nail surface. It works beautifully with clean nails, glass nails, cat eye stylings, pastel shades, nude colours and more artistic salon nail art.
Scratch Base is also an essential step when working with the “scratch” technique. It prepares the nail surface for Scratch Gel, making it easier to create structural patterns and achieve a clear 3D effect.
The product helps create visible, stable patterns that keep their shape after curing. It is a perfect solution for nail stylists who want to work precisely, consistently and create designs with a noticeable texture.
Why choose Scratch Base?
