Review (5/5): This was my missing step to phenomenal nails!
I have tried the gel cured polishes quite a few times, and most of the time within a few days, it would start popping up from my nails which would get me picking/pulling off the polish in sheets. This is NOT healthy, and seemed to pull off a bit of the nail finish.
Adding this into the whole process (cleanse, use ph balancer, then bonder, then base coat, then color, and finally the top coat) was the missing piece that I needed! Now my gel colors stay on until I HAVE to remove them, due to them growing out!
I love the IBD colors, too! They work well, and are much cheaper than other brands.
