this review title is: overall pleased with purchase and the content is: this has only been the second gel base and top coat that i have used i am not super familiar with them but the lagunamoon is incredible in comparison to the other brand that i used from sally beauty it is quite thick and has a strange odor but the finished product is excellent the nails are smooth and level when cured i have had to apply two base coats each use though the base coat is sticky and about half of the coat comes if when you wipe off the sticky layer a second coat of base covers entirely and stays on the top coat is wonderful one coat coverage no sticky layer very glossy it has made my gel nail polish last an extra week so far without a single chip or any lifting i will definitely order this again.there are other information for this review, one is this reviewer did purchase it and the other is 0 people think this review is helpful.
