A plumping base coat that grips onto polish for the ultimate chip-resistant, long-wear manicure/pedicure. This is a uniquely flexible formula that provides the tackiness needed for next-level adhesion—which means any lakur (or nail decal) sticks on to stay on. Think of it as the ultimate nail primer: made to last, incredibly chip-resistant, and as always, powered by nail-loving botanicals to infuse supercharged care with every application.
12 ml / .4 fl oz
Start with clean nails. Apply one thin, even coat to bare nails. Let set for 1-2 minutes then follow with 1-2 coats of lakur.

This base coat really grips the polish and makes the manicure last longer. Top with the Gel-strong top coat and my nails look wonderful. Highly recommend
This stuff is great! It's nice and plumping! And it's so shiny it can be worn alone! It's the best base coat I've ever used!
After two days, the entire polish comes off my nail as if it were a fake nail peeling off. Comes clean off base coat and all. I have tried using grip lock more than once and each time the polish either chips or peels off. I have better results with the basic gel base coat. While the polish does go on smooth, it doesn’t last. Not worth it for me.

I thoroughly researched nail products, looking for something healthy and beautiful after getting a one-time gel manicure for my daughter's wedding last Fall that caused some damage. Londontown kept coming up, so I first purchased the Kur Grip Lock Base Coat, the Gel Genius Top Coat and the Illuminating Nail Concealer. I was religious about using the products, but kept noticing my nails were peeling and breaking. Unlike most users, the base would literally pop up within 24-48 hours and the three coats (base, concealer and top coat) would just peel off and looked like they were taking a layer of nail with them. I finally stopped using for a couple of months and cut them constantly until they finally grew out. Once I got back to healthy nails, I started using the Londontown products again and the same issue occurred. Sadly, I had purchased additional polishes around Christmas and I now have a very expensive stash of unusable product. I did see this in a few other reviews after digging deep, so just beware that it is sadly not for everyone.
Thank you for sharing such a detailed experience. A few things can affect how our formulas perform including residual nail damage from prior gel services and understanding your full routine will help us guide you to the best result. Our Customer Service team will be reaching out directly so we can work through this together and make sure your LONDONTOWN collection gets the chance to perform the way it was designed to.
Nice base coat
