If you want a 2-in-1, it passes

I find any 2-in-1 product like this compromises on one or both of the functions it promises. I purchased this when travelling so I didn't have to carry both a base and top coat, and it did an ok job. I din't have very high expectations on account of it being a multipurpose product. It's easy to apply, the brush and bottle are easy to use. I used my bottle up quite quickly and it did thicken when I had about a 3rd left, making it a bit less useful and probably not the most amazing value. It does an average job, you're better off getting a proper base and top coat.

one of the better ones

Double duty, is actually really good. I really like that it is in a clear bottle so you can see how much is left. It says its chip resistant, but on my nails it started to chip within 5 days (which in all honesty isnt that bad for me). It didnt give that shiney look, but its not actually formulated for that. (so no biggy). I did notice that my cuticles wernt rubbish using this, so im guessing it did nourish them as well and semi strengthing my nails. the biggest issue i have with this, is that it is an extremely strong smelling polish, i get a headache from using it, so have to use outside. but other than this, its a good polish :)

:-)

I recently got this product as a gift as part of a promotion at Farmers within the Sally Hansen range. I love that it doubles as a base and top coat. It is great at reducing staining on my nails as a result of painting them and I love the nice shine that it gives off too. It works well as a top coat (could be a wee bit better) but I would definitely purchase it again. The brush is a great size as I have smallish hands and find sometimes with other brands the nail brush is too big for my smaller hands.

Affordable Nail Must Have

Although this isn't my favourite topcoat I do think it is a nail kit must have. Doubling as a base coat, it is affordable and works well to keep nails free of staining which makes removing your colour a breeze. It applies nicely and dries quickly so there isn't much waiting around to apply your colour and it does give your polish a nice sheen as a topcoat but it only lasts a couple of days before chipping around the edges. I'd definitely buy it again as I do get a decent amount of use from it as a base coat

Money saver

I haven't used a base and a top coat for my nails before, and I don't want to splurge on something that I am not sure if it will work or not. So I gave this a go, since it's a 2 in 1 product.

PROS: the brush is just the right size last long my nails does not chip more often comparing to not wearing one.

CONS: wish the staying power was longer, after 2 days, my nail polish are chipping already.

Safe to Say - its a personal favourite!

Last time I brought this polish, I stocked up. Boy oh boy I love this stuff. It dries quickly, is really strengthening and seems to maintain its easy application (it doesn't go sticky or lumpy for ages). Maybe that's why I brought three at once...?

Strong nails!

In high school I wasn't much for nail polish/bright colors and I had a bad habit of biting my nails! So this was perfect for me! I would apply it on its own to my nails and it gave me that fresh/strong/clean look! My nails are now thanking me for it today!

Tips: The smell is strong so make sure you dont apply in a confined place! (This is the same with all nail polishes though)
