    I love this stuff! It's such a nice base coat because it gives a perfect clean canvas for you to paint your nails on. I agree with the others that say this would be lovely by itself. I say two...

    I have been using this product for about a year. It's nice and matte and dries quickly. Butter London's packaging is awful! First you must remove the rectangular lid and set it aside. Then,...

    This base coat is perfect to use by itself as well as with color over. Its peachy-pink color would work as a "your nails but better" on anyone, regardless of skin tone. It protects well from color...

    I polished on Sunday and today, I notice chips on Tuesday. That isn't acceptable. I'm using up the product but I want my manis to last at least 4 days. I use the product if I need the mani...

    It's a nice basecoat, but it turned my nails an ugly yellow. Definitely not a polish I'd wear alone, as some reviewers recommended.

    It is a pretty color on my nails, a matte pink/nude color. I tried this with one coat and two coats, both with a layer of Butter London's Hardwear PD top coat and it would always chip within a...

    This is a really excellent base coat, which is great, because it is effing expensive. I actually got this free by complete fluke, when I ordered Artful Dodger and Yummy Mummy and got this with AD...

    I have to tell you, I am underwhelmed with the entire Butter London line. The colors look gorgeous (in the bottle anyway) and the names are too cute but the lasting power of these polishes is nil. ...

    Based on reviews, bought this. It did not work for me. It made my normally healthy nails weak after using it just a few times and my polish lasted much less than normal. I used it with the...

    My new HG basecoat. Love the way it smooths, mattes, and evens out my nails in one swipe. It is pretty alone or with a simple topcoat too (my go-to nail look when on a roadtrip so I don't worry...

    I've heard some people say it doesn't work as well with other brands of nail polish, but I'd have to disagree (I've used it with China glaze, OPI, Sally Hansen) and it can help make even the...

    Amazing amazing basecoat that makes my nail color last for a whole WEEK without chipping! It is incredible because it's like a base coat and a ridge filler all in one. It creates a smooth, matte,...

    This is the best basecoat I have ever used. As others have mentioned, it looks lovely on its own. It dries quickly and makes polish glide onto your nails like, well, butter. I love to wear very...
