    This product was overall good. The reason that its not a 5 is because it does get VERY gloppy and thick after a while. I mainly used it as a base coat only because it takes too long to dry as a top...

    Lovely product, must NEVER be applied on wet nail paint though. Excellent base coat. Good top coat, a tad slow to dry. At the price, excellent VFM!

    I really like the Sally Hansen nail polish line. After coating my nails with the double duty base and top coat, my nails are chip-less for about 2 weeks. They stay shiny and healthy looking and...

    I tried this as a base coat and top coat for the first time today. I applied this, two coats of polish, and then one last coat of this. Three hours later, it's chipping and flaking off. It dries...

    I've been using this for years and years, and has been my basic "go to" base coat. It dries relatively quickly on bare nails, provides a good base for the polish, and can be worn alone as a clear...

    I bought this as a top coat, but ended up using it alone as a strengthener. I like it a lot. Like most others, once you have a couple of layers on, it can tend to peel; but unlike most others, you...

    I think this as a base coat is really wonderful, it dries really quickly. As a top coat, it takes a while to dry, but it does help to give a really glossy and shiny finish. It can last a long time,...

    Very basic base/top coat. Is effective at making my nails look very shiny, makes my nail polish last longer and for me, dries fine. Not a wow product though, there are better ones on the market.

    This sucks as a top coat because it DOES NOT DRY. I applied a thin coat to my already completely dry nail polish, and let it sit for 3 hours as I watched a movie. Much to my surprise even after 3...

    I bought this on a whim. Its a great top coat. Once it dries, its tough and chip resistant. Its also very shiny. But as others have said, it does bubble as it dries. I find that letting it dry on ...
