I used to have that problem, even when using a base and top coat. but after I stopped using this nail strengthner before painting my nails, and they last a week now. mabye your using something that makes your nails oily? polish never sticks to oily nails

I saw to wipe alcohol over your nails before painting. I use Orly Rubberized Lacquer Gripping Basecoat and it works pretty well

Make sure your nails have no oils, polish doesnt adhere well to oils. To do this wash and scrub your nails with soap. Then apply a basecoat, nail color, and topcoat. (:
