    Great base coat

    I used this in addition to builder gel with just one coat, worked nicely as I didn’t want my nails to be too thick. Nice colour and easy to apply

    Natural

    It goes on really streaky but once cured it’s a perfectly even neutral layer.

    This image is base plus a clear glitter on top.
