Best Base for UV Gel Nails
Age 30-44
I use this as a base for my UV Gel Nails (Dashing Diva, Ohora) and this has some tack to it which makes the nails stay on longer. At one time I had to use a different base and this was out of stock and had so many UV Gel Nails fall off right away.
Wow
My nails have been peeling and nothing has helped. I tried this just a couple of days ago, and hardly see any more peeling. Wonderful when a product works so amazingly and so quick. Also the brush is nice and sturdy and thick. The polish goes on easily.
Great stuff
Very lovely, strong and thick brush. Love this stuff

I love how this product helped repair and restore my splitting, flimsy nails! I saw a big difference with my nails by using this product every other day. I would definitely recommend.
Nothing has ever worked on my thin, peeling nails until this
I put 2 coats on clean nails and the 1 coat daily for 5 days. Remove and start over. It doesn't peel off, doesnt chip. Perfect!! My nails are long and strong! Girls in my office are in disbelief when I tell them that it is the nail strengthener from heaven!!! What you see in the pic is MY NAILS after 4 weeks!!!
