Ever since I found this basecoat, which I use with Orly polish and Won't Chip top coat, my polish stays on for at least a week or more. In fact, sometimes it's embarassing because I realize that...

"Bonder" is what helps me love my nails. I normally put so much time and care into polishing my nails that I'd hate to see my manicure start chipping away after a few days. I've been using this...

This stuff really works. I get more miles out of a vampy/dark manicure by using this than anything else. If you know anything about vampy/dark manicures, they can chip or show wear almost...

I love this! Whenever I give myself a french manicure, it takes FOREVER. (Base coat, 2-3 coats of polish, white tip, top coat, another coat of white) Before I started using this, my polish would...

I LOVE this stuff!!! Seriously. I was having a terrible time keeping a mani for longer than a day or two. It would chip or peel no matter what polish I used, even with a good topcoat. Someone...

So far so good. I recently purchased this at Sallys Beauty supply and my nailpolish has not chipped after a week of using this. I would definately buy this again.

This stuff is the ish!!! Applies thin and evenly w/o bubbles. I think the key for this working for me is allowing it to dry completely before polishing and applying 2 coats. My nail enamel sticks...

I'm a nail tech and I get people telling me all the time that their polish stayed on longer than ever before. I use it myself and love it. Any other basecoat (even other Orly basecoats) don't...

I only require that a basecoat not allow my nails to turn yellow, which is a problem on my toes since polish lasts there for weeks on me. There was no yellowing of my toenails a month after...

Polish does stick to this rubberized base coat, but I'm having a hard time getting the base coat to stick to my (natural) nails! It does help somewhat with chipping at the tips, however, once it...

This is a fantastic product. I hadn't used nail polish in a number of years. It came off so fast that it just wasn't worth it. But with Bonder, my nail polish stays on. I can wash dishes galore,...

I am impressed with this base coat. I had been using a now discontinued Sally Hansen base coat with bonding formula to it before replacing it with this. It does really keep the color bonded well. I...
