Review: Great product that does the job! - This is good stuff! Eliminates ridges with a few coats( ( won’t help if the ridges are bumpy and very pronounced) I use it as a base coat. Nice slim brush too. I find Essie brushes amazing for ease of application. Lasts well on nails if used alone, and leaves a milky colour which works great as a natural polish. Dries quick and isn’t sticky .
Review: This is my go to base coat - I find this makes my polish last longer (less chips and peeling) and applies more evenly, leaving a more professional finish. I know I will be buying this again and again.
