I am editing this review as my original review was written after I had taken off my salon gel nails and tried gelous. I believe that while my nails were that thin and flexible, the gelous product...

Great base or top coat. I use this mostly as a glitter topper because it really smoothed out the texture and then I use a fast dry top coat over it. Lasts long and is very durable.

I use this base coat when I feel my nails need a little more protection. I also love to use it as a topcoat over glitter polish. I do not like gritty feeling nails. 1-2 coats of gelous and my...

As a top coat it makes any polish under it last longer. Pedis for me last a good 3 weeks/manis a week or longer. Thickens the nail and makes it look like a Gel Mani without the hassle of curing...

I have a bit of a love/hate relationship with Gelous. I bought a bottle at Sally after many recommendations. I love how shiny it is when used in a sandwich mani and as a top coat. I love the way it...

My first bottle broke within 24hrs of purchase. I think it was a flaw in the glass, because I dropped it less than 6 inches onto a relatively soft surface... :( My 2nd bottle has been awesome....
