I'd had this in my stash so long unopened, and I finally used it one day as a base coat because it dried so quickly. Lo and behold, it quickly became one of my top favourites, my polishes didn't...

As others have noticed, not completely matte, but with a subtle sheen. I am thinking whether I would recommend it to men. On the one hand, it gives your nails a healthy manicured look (so, if...

This stuff works! I got it bc my nails are prone to peeling or splitting at the sides. I used to use nailtiques but hated the way multiple coats looked like glopped on polish after a while. This...

This is a really great base coat. It creates a smooth canvas to paint over. I tried to use it as a topcoat, but it doesnt really look matte after a while, and the finish wears off pretty fast.

I really like this product. I'm not sure about it's effectiveness of strengthening nails, as I keep my nails very short, but it's great as a base coat under polish - it works very well as a ridge...

I am not a fan of the new matte polish trend and was initially skeptical of the look this would result in, but it's great. This is an excellent treatment product. I don't typically wear color on...

It worked decently as a strengthen, but I found the polish actually absorbed the ink from newsprint and turned a yucky gray. Not a good choice for ladies who like to read the newspaper.

As a reformed nail biter (slaps wrist) I needed help to grow my nails. They were so brittle and weak, they’d snap as soon as I managed to grow them to a neat and paintable length. Say hello to one...

I have bought this stuff for YEARS and it's the only thing I will ever use as a base coat. B/C this is a matte formula, I think it helps to fill in ridges in the nails. It does a great job at...

I really like this product. After applying two coats, there is just a very subtle sheen. Very nice for those who like a very understated look. A little pricey, but a good product.

An HG for me! I put on one coat every 1-2 days on my fingers and remove with polish remover about twice a week. It goes on easily and dries quickly. It gives nails a sheen, like I've just...
