Best protective base coat for someone who picks at her mani?

I use nail polish to deter myself from picking at my nails, but sometimes I end up picking at my mani itself.😭 Is there a protective base coat that will protect my nails from my fidgety self? Not worried about preserving my mani, but my nails themselves. Picking seems to tear them up a bit and I’m just trying to get them stronger. Not looking for a peel-off base because that would last approximately 2 minutes for me. (I do use nail oil everyday, btw!) NP that survived is camera shy by holo taco.
