ReformA Cover Base Sets bring together seven 10 ml Cover Base shades in one box. Each base has its own colour and needs no coloured gel polish on top: after two layers, the manicure is sealed with a top coat. A set suits a nail technician who wants a ready range of one type of base at hand. All bases in the sets share the same TPO-free, HEMA-free and Di-HEMA-free formula.
How to choose a Cover Base Set
Start with the effect. Cover It! holds solid bases without particles in a light, pastel range. Lustrous Night 1 and Lustrous Night 2 hold bases with a flash effect, foil flakes and glitter in greens, blues, greys, burgundy, violet, pink and brown.
Then look at coverage. Most bases in the Lustrous Night sets are thick, self-levelling rubber bases with sheer-to-full coverage: the first layer gives a light effect, the second a fuller colour. Ethereal Essence and Spectral Spark from the first set and Tinsel Treasure from the second give full coverage.
Together the two Lustrous Night sets make 14 bottles and 13 different shades: Scintillating Sky is the only base they share.

Frequently asked questions
Do I need gel polish over the bases from a set?
No. The colour is in the base itself, and the Lustrous Night bases also carry a flash effect, foil flakes and glitter. Two layers of base are sealed with a top coat. Coloured gel polish is only needed for nail art.
How do I apply the bases from the sets?
On a prepped nail plate, apply a thin layer of Rubber Base and cure. Then apply the chosen base in two layers, a thin first one and a levelling second one, curing each. Finish with a top coat. Cover Base curing time in an LED lamp is 1-2 min and depends on the lamp power, so check it for your lamp.
How is Lustrous Night 1 different from Lustrous Night 2?
In six bases out of seven; Scintillating Sky is the only shared one. The violet and burgundy bases are only in the first set, the brown and emerald ones only in the second.
How is a set different from single bases?
A set holds the same 10 ml Cover Base bottles that we sell separately. Every base from the Lustrous Night sets can also be bought as a single bottle.
Do the bases in the sets contain TPO or HEMA?
No. All bases in the sets use the Cover Base formula: TPO-free, HEMA-free and Di-HEMA-free. The full ingredient list is on each set's page.
Colours on screen can look different from the real shade: monitor calibration and display settings both affect it. If you are unsure about a shade, get in touch and we will show you the actual colour.
