Review: Always been using as a base for coloured polish - The Essie Strong Start Ridge Filling Base Coat is a must-have in my nail prep routine. It applies smoothly and evens out the nail plate beautifully, helping to minimise ridges and create the perfect base for colour application. I love how quickly it dries without feeling heavy or sticky, which makes it ideal for both professional use and at-home manicures. It gives a really clean, strong foundation that improves the longevity of the polish on top and helps prevent chipping. The clear finish is super natural, and the vegan formula is a big plus. A simple but essential step for flawless, long-lasting nails
Review: Excellent!!! - Excellent base coat. Gives the nail a smooth surface to paint on and stops dark colours staining the nail. Definitely worth bothering with and dries super quick!
