Bought this to protect my nails from becoming fragile from nail polish. didn't find it to work as a base or top coat so I decided to try it on it's own for a bit of shine. BAD IDEA! My nails are...

Im quite impressed! I've never thought of using base coats until my nails began to suffer from staining. And so I went on a hunt to find a cure for my poor nails and stumbled upon this one. It...

I've been using Double Duty as a base coat for years. I've tried to switch to others - Barielle, Orly, OPI, and I'm sure a few others along the way. But I keep coming back to this. I cannot wear...

It works well enough as a base coat and goes on easily. Where it fails is as a topcoat--it takes a whole day to properly cure and go hard! I end up having to do my nails at night so that by the...

Sally Hansen Double Duty is both a base and topcoat. I used it as a base coat and found it to be less than average. Colored polish does not adhere well and goes on streaky and with bald patches. ...

I really like the fact that this product does the job both for the base and top coat. I like having combined products which I can use for different purposes. as a top coat it's not extremely shiny...

I've used this top coat about 5 times and I just can't get into it. It always chips after only about 2 days, and I personally like a more shiny finish for my top coats. Also it takes forever to dry...

I really like this product. I got it as a free-bee w/ a SH nail polish I purchased; generally these free items you get w/ SH polishes suck, but this is great. I've been using it under Orly "bonder"...

Like many say, this is an average product. I still find my nails yellowing which really disappoints me. It is an okay top coat and does give a nice shine but I'm not too satisfied with it.

decent enough, sometimes it comes off before I can get my color coat on... plus sometimes it will peel. it works better as top coat than base.

This is probably my favorite base and top coat. I love how it's multi-purpose and you don't have to buy a base and top seperate. It makes my nails polish last longer like a manicure. Plus, it...

This product is just average. I don't think it did anything for my nails other than functioning as a base coat and top coat. Even with that, it had average finish. I will use this up, but I hope...

I really wanted to like this product, HOWEVER, it failed me as a top coat; which is the main reason I used it for. It did not speed up the drying process at all. If anything, it slowed it down....
