Meet Yoshi Absolute Base, a new professional base range designed for technicians who want more structure from their base coat.
Unlike a softer, flexible rubber base, Absolute Base has a hard formula designed to reinforce the natural nail while providing good adhesion and controlled self-levelling application. Yoshi recommends the range particularly for thin or weakened natural nails that need additional support.
Hard, Self-Levelling Base Coat
Absolute Base combines a stable consistency with self-levelling properties.
The formula is designed to stay controlled around the cuticle while smoothing itself across the nail surface, allowing technicians to level unevenness and create a light build-up without moving into a full builder gel system.
10 Yoshi Absolute Base Options
The complete collection contains 10 professional 10ml bases, No1-No10.
The range starts with No1 Clear, followed by a selection of natural salon shades including milky white, soft pink, nude, brighter pink, peach, coral and warm natural tones.
For example:
No1 - transparent clear
No2 - soft milky white
No3 - very light milky pink
No4 - cool pastel pink
No5 - stronger candy pink
No6 - warm pink with a peach undertone
No7 - muted pink-beige nude
No8 - warm coral pink
No10 - warm peach-coral
This makes it easy to choose between a completely clear base and a coloured base that can also form part of the finished manicure.
Wear Absolute Base on Its Own or Under Colour
The coloured Absolute Base shades can be used as part of natural salon looks, French manicures and simple nail art.
For a clean finish, choose one of the softer pink, nude or milky shades and finish with top coat, or use Absolute Base underneath gel polish when additional structure and reinforcement are required. Yoshi specifically positions the natural shades for standalone salon looks as well as French, nail art and colour services.
Absolute Base for French & Natural Nails
Soft shades such as No2, No3, No4 and No7 work particularly well for understated manicures.
No2 is a milky white suited to French and Baby Boomer looks, while No3 is a very light milky pink and No7 provides a classic muted nude backdrop for French or minimal nail art.
Absolute Base vs Yoshi Rubber Base
The key difference is flexibility.
Yoshi Absolute Base is a hard base, designed to add reinforcement and structure to the natural nail. Yoshi Rubber Base is flexible, and Yoshi positions it specifically for thin, flexible and more problematic nail plates where a harder traditional base may be more prone to lifting.
Choose the system according to the natural nail and the professional service being performed.
Professional 10ml Yoshi Base Coat
Each Absolute Base comes in a 10ml bottle and is intended for professional use. The formula is self-levelling with a stable consistency designed to maintain control during application.
