Great product that does the job!
This is good stuff! Eliminates ridges with a few coats( ( won’t help if the ridges are bumpy and very pronounced) I use it as a base coat. Nice slim brush too. I find Essie brushes amazing for ease of application. Lasts well on nails if used alone, and leaves a milky colour which works great as a natural polish. Dries quick and isn’t sticky .

This is my go to base coat
I find this makes my polish last longer (less chips and peeling) and applies more evenly, leaving a more professional finish. I know I will be buying this again and again.

Fantastic
Amazing!! I am 53 and have nail wrinkles (ridges) and i applied this horizontally for the 1st application the vertically for the second and ridges completly gone!! Applied Essie topcoat after as the smoother leaves a matte look and my nails looked like youthful nails again so happy!!

Reasonable base coat but nothing special
I can't say that this really smooths out the ridges in my nails but it works OK as a base coat and prevents any staining if using a darker nail varnish.

Great nail varnish. Lasts as long as any normal nail polish. But gives a nice shine

This is a really good base coat that helps to reduce the appearance of nail ridges and keeps polish on for longer.

Not my favourite Essie product. My nail polish chipped before the week was up and I usually keep a manicure on for 6 days before redoing them. If you do your nails more often this might suit your needs.

Migliore base per smalto tradizionale. Normalmente uso semipermanente, quando mi prendo una pausa questa è la mia base. Ottimo effetto Ridge filler, è molto bella anche da sola perché uniforma ed è opaca. Asciuga in fretta e non si macchiano le unghie.
