Review (4/5): Works well IF...
The first time I used this, I could barely get the polish to lift up. I used cuticle oil and a cuticle pusher and I wound up tearing up some of my natural nail. After doing some reading, I saw a suggestion to use a traditional basecoat under the gel peel off basecoat. I thought that it sounded silly, but I was willing to try it, as I wanted to have an easy way to take off my gel polish. I have been using Nailtiques Nail Protein Formula 2 as my basecoat because my nails are thin and then tend to peel. Then I put the gel peel off basecoat over the Nailtiques. After that I polish as usual with whatever color/brand of gel polish I have selected. I used an orange stick to assist with lifting and peeling off the polish when I want to remove it, Following this method has worked REALLY well for me and I have done it 4 or 5 times now. No natural nail lifting up! This also lasts a long longer than when I tried to use UNT. UNT lifted on my nails after one 1-2 days usually. This lasts *easily* 1 week+ for me. Capping the free edge properly is key. I rated it 4 stars because, IMO, I shouldn't have to use a traditional basecoat with the peel off basecoat.
UPDATE 12.6.16: I have found that using an orange stick to assist in lifting the gel polish is a KEY FACTOR in making sure that your natural nail does not lift. I figured this out last night. Additional tips for minimal damage: file down your nails prior to taking off the polish. Breaking the seal on the free edge and then washing your hands helps loosen things up, making it easier to lift. Happy peeling!
