Good value, smooth, takes 2 coats, careful for residual ‘snap back’ upon removal, smells bad.
I used it as a gel nail polish guard. It smells a bit like dead fish, but I didn’t expect it to smell like roses & since I’m using it on myself whilst alone, it’s not a dealbreaker. It takes 2 coats & a little longer to set than others I’ve tried, but I’ll use a fan going forward if it proves to speed it up. It did apply smoothly from a nail polish brush. I dispensed some from the tub into a clean, empty polish bottle via a pipette. I have a mixing bead in the bottle to aid in gently blending any settled product prior to use. I did one hand where I removed the latex after gel polish set under light & removed the other prior to polish setting & found the latter removed more easily. However, if it doesn’t come off all in one piece, pieces will snap back like a rubber band, hitting the polish. I’m sure with use I’ll perfect a technique that works best for me & will also do comparisons with bulk alternatives & update.
