I liked this base coat at first. It played well with any brand of nail color I used. But over time my nails started to peel. I started using a different base coat, and the peeling stopped. The only...

Six months ago, I started tracking the polishes I use in a spreadsheet. (I can't believe I hadn't thought to do it before then.) I track which colors I use and when, along with which base coat and...

I've used this basecoat for a long time now, and don't plan on using a different one any time soon. This is a good product, it does the job that it needs to do - and I do think this performs better...

Meh. Basic, no frills base coat to prep the nailbed for polish. Not a ridge filler, not a peel-off for glitter or textured polish, not even particularly chip-resistant, not stain proof. You can do...

It's a great product but it works more as a peel off base coat because my mani doesn't last more than 48 hours with this base coat. It makes me really sad because I have to keep wasting my polish...

To be honest with you, I don't really think base Coats really range in quality. I think the topcoat is what really makes the difference in how long polish lasts. I'd always make sure to wear a base...

I bought this product on Amazon because it came in a bundle with OPI top coat and base coat. Compared to Essie's base coat, this stinks. It's very thin and does not protect your natural nail. My...

I have no use for this base coat. It is a fine, very basic product. I suppose it puts a layer between your nail and color but that's it. I used Essie's base coat before and LOVED it. I couldn't...

I have finished the bottle and have to say in retrospect this is a great little Basecoat. While I was using it I didn't think it did that much, but it did. Firstly it have me 67 manis (yes, OCD...

I never have much to say about base coats, my focus is always on my polish and top coat. I do think this base coat is alright. I've found my polish takes longer to chip with it but I do get tip...

I love this basecoat! I am using this one for years now, and I have obviously repurchased it multiple times. The substance is very thin - which I like for a basecoat - and there is no staining at...

I was really disappointed in this product. I got it hoping it would help prevent staining from a teal nail polish I'd bought, but it didn't. The staining was just as bad as without. So I decided to...

Like I have seen on other reviews this stains my nails also! I had no idea as to why my nails were getting stained. I thought I was doing the right thing by using a base coat...well, after using...

This is a pretty decent base coat. I do not necessarily think that this makes my nail polish last forever, but it does help fill in ridges in my nail bed. I do not think this product is...

I love this base coat. The large brush makes it easy to apply in 1-2 swipes and it protects my nails from staining. I'm surprised to hear others have had problems with staining, not sure why? I ran...

Terrible, terrible base coat. This does not protect your nails from staining; I used a tangerine polish over literally three coats of this and my nails were still stained orange from it. It does...

Very good, does what it supposed to be doing. Keeps my mani in great condition and prolongs the wear of my polish. I put it to the test with Chanel Rouge Noir, which is notorious for staining your...

I don't think I will ever use this again, this always stains my nails an ugly yellow or orange. I tried another brand and after I removed a dark gray (almost black) nail polish, 0 staining!

Without nail polish on top, this base coat chips much easier than I'd like it to.. It lasts a few days on some of my nails, on others it chips the next day. With nail polish, it bubbles underneath...
