essie Base coat smooth-e 13,5 ml

Item arrived completely damaged, box was crushed, nail polish all over it in a totally different colour, writing scratched off the bottle. Definitely not a new item!

I like that this base coat has a matt finish rather than shiny and a couple of coats is sufficient to make nails look manicured. Subsequent coats will gradually give an opaque, white finish Also great for a base for water based polishes, that can be peeled off after a couple of days wear. Recommended

I use this as a base coat before applying nail polish and it really helps smooth my nail ridges! So glad I bought it.

This is a base coat - it’s not a clear nail polish (clarifying as some reviewers seem to think it’s really thin). It dries matt and very quickly making it the perfect base for applying your main colour and then top coat. Really reduces staining nails from darker colours.

I have really ridged nails and until now found it hard to find a base coat that does what is claims to, this really does give a lovely smooth base. I apply 2 coats, then follow with 2 coats of nail polish and they look like gels. Amazing
