Hmmm...I just found out from other MUAers that this product is discontinued, and when I look on the Revlon sight, so it seems! I guess they didn't enjoy the fact that people were buying their...

I have already purchased back ups of this and I NEVER do that. This is my HG base coat. It sticks to the nail like glue and keeps any polish on it for over a week. It is somewhat shiny and...

The newest version (Gel) is amazing. I can do the dishes and clean the house without it chipping for at least a week and a half. Usually my nail polish chips within a few hours. I've tried almost...

Wonderful, wonderful base coat! My manicure last all week even though I do dishes without gloves, clean my house, work and do laundry. There is a bit of wearing around the top edge which reminds...

I got the 'Gel' formula version which looks grayish in color but applies clear. It filled my nail ridges, which are more like deep trenches, *beautifully* so I was initially delighted! i...

Life changer. Seriously, I've always struggled with chippy nails, and Revlon Colorstay Base Coat has helped extend the wear of my nail polish by 3-4 days. You can put on your first coat of nail...

I used this before bowling, purposely. I also used an OPI color that was a little thick, def could have used some thinning. Basically I was setting this base coat up to fail. So far, it hasn't....

I had to give this a try after seeing so many NB-ers rave about it. It did live up the hype. Easy to apply, quick to dry and kinda sticky to adhere polish better - my manis lasted 4 days with this...

So far, this has been a pretty awesome base coat. It's only been a day, so I can't attest to whether it's long wear yet. If it stands up to chipping and helps my polish stay intact and fresh for at...

When used along with the Colorstay top coat and Colorstay nail polish, this really does help polish stay on the nails.
