Like some other girls I was wearing fake nails. But not tips, the full cover ones. I'd take those off, see ugly nails, put them on, take em off, etc My nails hardly had a day without them. I've...

Holy Grail!! I never would have tried this if it wasn't for MUA. It seemed overpriced, but I got a huge 2 oz. bottle online for $12. This is the best base coat I have ever used, and I've tried...

This is a really great basecoat. I recently had fake nails removed which left me with peeling, thin, ridged nails. This smooths out all the ridges, drys matte and fast, making it a breeze to use...

It's as good as all the other reviewers say it is. Dries quickly, which speeds up manicure.

I love this stuff! My nails peel like crazy, but when I have this base coat on, they don't peel at all. It also makes my nails grow really long (the nail bed is a lot longer.) It is almost too long...

This is the best basecoat I have ever used! Forget OPI Nail Envy! Nailtek II Foundation is a basecoat and a nail strengthener in one! I won't repeat what everyone as said below. I am simply...

Before buying this stuff, I had to keep my nails short because they would peel and break very easily. I am really glad I listened to the good reviews here! My nails have made a complete 180 ever...

Thanks guys for the tip, I wouldn't have found this little gem otherwise. It does exactly what it claims, and drys to a matte finish in a blink. I grabbed the last one at my local Ulta.

Lifetime sufferer of thin, weak, fragile, peeling, splitting nails here. This product, combined with taking Biotin and lots of fish oil, really made a difference. I have long nails now -- really....

I don't have ridges on my nails so I can't comment on that. But I do feel like using this as a base coat makes my nails stronger and my polish last much longer. I have repurchased numerous times.

I bought this for two reasons: I had little ridges in my nails since I stopped buffing them, and my nails were peeling. I never do a manicure without this stuff now. Since I started using it (about...

I purchased this ridge filler because my nails have some definite ridges in them and I was finding it difficult to get a smooth nail polish application as a result. I don't like to buff my nails...

I love this! Usually my nails peel pretty bad, so when I polished them the color would peel off with the nail at the ends. Not with this! I just got 6 days out of my mani with NO chips! Will...

For as long as I can remember I’ve had a problem with my nails being thin and weak. They would peel really easily and then break because there was no substance to them. As soon as they would get...
