I did my nails on Wednesday and my nail polish chipped Saturday. But the Seche Vite base coat <B>did not budge</B>. It really is awesome.

Grainy, gritty, and pearly white finish detracts from my sheer polishes, which is what I mostly wear--it made them less translucent, a characteristic I like to highlight rather than suppress with...

After much experimenting and searching, Seche Clear--Crystal Clear Base Coat is my winner for a base coat. Too many of the others I tried either didn't make polish last longer/protect from...

The best topcoat of all time. My pedicure stays on over two weeks with no chipping. My hairstylist gf turned me on to this and I used to have to get it from her but now it's at Walgreens.

I love this top coat! I used to work at the place that sold it to nail techs, so I got it for cheap. I do have to apply it every other day or so to keep it up, but it makes my polish so shiny and...

This chips on me. I've tried it several times and it just doesn't "stick." I've had better luck with some of the other primers, like Orly Bonder.

This base coat doesn't fill in ridges as stated, however it does a great job at "gripping" polish. I used this under 2 coats of polish w/ no top coat and polish didn't chip or wear for 2 days. ...

This is my favorite base coat. It fills ridges and makes my polish last longer. Sometimes I just use this sans polish, for a pearly natural look. Great stuff, but it's $7.99 which is a bit steep.

This is the pearly white ridge-filler base coat, not to be confused with the clear base coat, and yet another dud from Seche Vite. The ridge-filling claim is debatable and nail polish does NOT go...

Just got my acrylic nails off and was looking for a ridge filler that actually worked. My first try was Seche Base, which calls itself a ridge filler. Hardly! It mostly made my nasty grooves look...

I love this base coat! My nail polish always lasts superlong (I also use Seche Prep and Seche Vite Top Coat) and I've never had any discolorations on my nails due to dark nail polishes. I've even...

I may have found a HG basecoat. And coming from someone who rarely used a basecoat prior to this that is a big deal. Seche Vite Ridgefilling basecoat is a beautiful pearly white and the application...

I never thought a basecoat could make such a big a difference, but after getting this as a freebie w/ the Fast Drying topcoat at Trade Secret, I'm hooked. It really does make my nailpolish go on...

Blah, the usual base coat. I normally use NYC or W'n'W I really think this is too expensive for what the product offers. I purchased this with the travel kit. I will use the kit up, but not...

This stuff is great--it's the only base coat I use and my manicures have been revolutionized since discovering seche . . . but why is it so hard to find? update, 5/3/08: I don't use it anymore. ...

I love this product! It keeps my manicure on for a week if I add a coat of clear top coat every day or two. My pedicure lasts till the nails grow out so far the polish needs to be redone -- 2 to 3...
