Much Better Options Out There...
Date:October 2, 2012
"I have ridges in my nails, so I was excited to see that there's a base coat to even out ridges. I ordered it (at a discounted price, thank goodness) and tried it out as soon as I got it. After it dried, I could still see and feel every ridge in my nails and after one day of wearing it, it started peeling off. All I had to do was pull and the whole bit I had painted on each nail just came apart. Either my nails have serious issues OR this stuff is just not worth it...I'm leaning towards the second option."

Looking for substitute
Date:October 1, 2012
"I only bought this hoping it might be a substitute for the Strong Results product that was discontinued. If you are coming out with a product that is packaged differently but does the same as Strong Results, I would certainly like to know when that happens."

"After using this product twice, I have noticed that my nails are super thin and peeling. I can't tell you how many times I have bent them back doing normal things. I don't recommend this product whatsoever."

"I do my own french pedicures at home. Since wearing nail polish all spring & summer long makes my toenails yellow I thought that this would help. I use stickers as guides for my white tips & the stickers just pull the base coat off."

Dream Basecoat
Date:March 13, 2012
"This basecoat smoothes the rough ridges in your nails and makes the color coat last. It is as good, if not better, than some of the more expensive varieties. My nails are long by today's standards and this allows them to look perfect with color."

Same ongoing issue for avon
Date:November 22, 2011
"They should really stick to makeup and not polishes.
No matter what I do, silk wrap, minerals, smooth beginnings, none of them STAY on my nails. They consistently chip off. Not wasting my money anymore on nail products from Avon."

Really makes the color last!
Date:October 19, 2011
"I've always been skeptical of products like this, but I can say with absolute certainty that this product is an amazing addition to any home manicure set. I've noticed a HUGE difference in how long my manicure lasts when I use this product vs. when I don't. I've found that my manicure will last at least 5 days longer than if I don't. I love it!"

Best base coat ever
Date:February 27, 2011
"This is the best base coat I have ever owned. I probably have gone through 3 bottles by now, and I plan to buy another in my next order.
I buff my nails so they are already smooth, but when i used other base coats to protect agents stains it wouldn't stick to my nails.
This stuff sticks, makes it super smooth, protects agents stains, I LOVE IT! <3"
