    I use this product and I do find it worth mentioning. I use it mostly for a base coat, and only as a top coat when I have extra time. I use the S.H. quik dry for a top coat. It dries my nail polish...

    Pics included >> Sally Hansen Double Duty really does work perfectly as both a base and top coat. Just a thin layer under and over the top of nail colour really helps the polish adhere to the nail...

    I tried this product after reading all the good reviews... and it works. Probably up there with some really high end top coats. It doesn't chip easily and gives nice enough shine.

    First top/base coat I've ever used and it does not disappoint! I use it with China Glaze nail polish and discovered that when I'm sick of the shade (CG never chips) I can just peel the color right...

    This is a pretty good polish for being a top and base coat in one. It leaves a nice shine to the nails and helps prevent chipping pretty well. My only complaint is that it's not easy to smooth it...

    As everyone has said, this is a great base coat, but a not-so-great top coat - I won't elaborate on this, because previous reviews have discussed that. In addition to that, this product turns...

    My favorite base/top coat. It looks awesome and shiny. Who wants to keep track of two different clear coats?

    To me, this product is great as a base coat, but not as a top coat. Initially, I purchased this because of its dual function and I tried using it for both base coat & top coat. When applied as a...

    I really like this product. Dries pretty quick (when applied thinly) adds a nice sheen to my nails (I only use OPI nail colors) and definitely seems to helps slow down the chipping process. Also...

    Well, I think I'm the minority here.. as a base coat, this stuff is great. Polish goes on nice and smooth and if you decide to just wear this with no polish, its very shiny. As a top coat.. no...
