This base coat changed my life!!

This is the best thing ever. I started using it a few years ago when my nails were insanely chippy and constantly chipping, and my nails are so SOLID! I could cut glass with how hard my nails are now. I recommend this to everyone.

Great product!

My nails are soft and they peel. I have never been able to get them grow. Since using this product, I am stunned to see actual growth for literally the first time in my life! I use this as a basecoat, then add the usual 2 layers of polish and a topcoat. Works very well!

Beautiful Nails

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have been using the Essie Strong Start + Us for a couple of months and I have definitely noticed my nails are not peeling or chipping as a result of using this product. I like that when I used the strong start as my base coat my top coat of color lasted longer and didn't chip or peel off. Definitely has helped my nails become stronger.

Necessary step!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love painting my nails but sometimes that leaves my nails feeling a bit brittle. This base coat is amazing and I love that it is infused with biotin to make my nails stronger. Definitely recommend!!

Stronger Nails

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have a hard time getting my nails to grow. This nail treatment has worked wonders. My nails are the longest they have ever been! I use it as a base coat when I paint my nails another color. When I dont have color on I keep this on! My nails are so pretty

Stronger nails

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This essie base coat is a must have in my opinion. My nails always break so easily and are brittle. This has definitely helped with that. I have been using this for over a month now and my nails are much more healthier and stronger. I have used this with nail polish which makes it last even longer. I have even used this on its own and it makes my nails look simple but pretty. I have actually been able to grow out my nails longer without them breaking. I would highly recommend this to anyone that has the same issues with their nails as I do.

It works!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I got this over a month ago and wanted to be fair with my review. It is a good base coat noticed a difference in the strength of my nails after a couple uses also good at stopping nail polish from chipping.
