I bought this when it was on sale at Walgreens last week. I used it as a top and bottom coat with nail polish from Forever 21, and although my manicure looked awesome and professional, it NEVER...

Tried applying it over Forever21 nail polish and it dragged off the entire end of my pinky nail. There is only nail showing with a top coat. The only good thing I can say about this stuff is that...

I bought this product as a set for about $6 at Riteaid. It came with a bottle of dual use top/base coat and a bottle of polish, the color which I later decided not to use. The top/base coat brush...

I really want to like this product. Rimmel London is one of the few cosmetic brands carried in most drugstores/big box stores that doesn't do animal testing- a definite plus in my book. I'm also a...

Took forever to dry and does not last up to ten days like bottle says. Didn't work for me but may for others I guess. But I'd say actually invest some money in a good top coat. It will probably...

My sister owns this base/top coat, so I'm glad I didn't spend money on it. I used this recently when I did my nails with her and it is awful as both a base and top coat for me. I don't think I...

I've been using this Base & Top Coat for some time now as a base when I polish my nails (I've been using Sally Hansen Dries Instantly Top Coat over everything), and I'm fairly ambivalent about it....

I finally found out why and how the tips of my nails would always peel! It was because of this product! It works well as a base coat because it dries fast and makes my nail polish go on pretty...

PROS: This is great protection for any nail color (I tend to use it on top) and definitely keeps chipping at bay for longer. Also, Rimmel's polishes with the square containers are fabulous because...

Favorite clear coat of mine. It lasts about a week, doesn't chip easily and the brush is the best size I could ask for! Doesn't bubble and doesn't get very gross and thick like some clear coats do....

I use this as a top coat and it does seem to help ward off chipping, more or less than others I don't know, but I like it. Drawback is that it does tend to take longer to dry, so I ensure that I...

I recieved this as a gift from my sister. I do nail art frequently and go through top coats (and white nail polish) very quickly. It's decent. It's best quality is it's brush. Rimmel claims that it...

I ran out of my regular top coat, so I decided to buy Rimmel's Top and Base coat. It was only about 4 dollars at the local Rite Aid, so I thought, why not? Big mistake. When I got home, I decided...

I did like this top coat quite a bit. I was a little disappointed when 3 days into my manicure I started getting chips when it says it would last for 10 days. I also found that I got some bubbling...

The packaging is beautiful and the brush applicator is genius. The first 2 weeks was fantastic... and then the formula became thicker and thicker and then came the bubbles. I use it as a base coat...

I use this as a top and base coat. Love the brush. Its wider and flatter than your average nail polish brush so it makes applying neater and faster Square bottle package is cute. Formula is...

overall, this is a pretty good top coat. however, i've only had this for less than a year and it got very thick. now whenever i use it, it's too hard to apply and makes bubbles because it's so thick.

I personally love Rimmel Lasting Finish Polishes. I think the claims for "10 day" nail color hold very true. So, I was very excited to try this top coat, thinking it would seal my nail polish for...

There are so many great reviews on this product, and i'm surprised. For the price of the product, it's great. I also love how shiny it makes my nails, but this takes FOREVER to dry. I'm not a very...
