Just as with the pH level in our Smart Base, we've certainly raised eyebrows by adding Vitamin E into a UV/LED curable nail product. However, the truth is, while Vitamin E gets encapsulated within the cured polymer matrix, it neither solidifies nor loses its inherent properties. Depending on the formulation, Vitamin E can offer benefits to the nail bed and surrounding areas over time. Given our goal for the Smart Base, the inclusion of a vitamin is a fantastic product enhancement aimed at helping the natural nail restore and improve over time.
