ORLY Bonder Rubberized Basecoat for Long-Lasting Manicures & Pedicures | Prevents Chipping & Peeling | Extends Nail Colour Wear Even After Frequent Hand-Washing | Easy to Apply (18ml)

Actually as good as it says. Tried many and winter nails so so bad...this has a lovely finish smoothing out ridges etc from extension damage .holds Polish very well.

This base coat is superb and kept my bright nail varnish chip free for 5 days in fact only the edges of my nail tips were slightly worn and it dries almost instantly I’ve never used a base coat that actually made any difference before so I will definitely be purchasing again - good value for money as I can see it’s going to last a good while

This stuff is the best base coat! Easy to apply & lasts. It dries quickly unless it’s humid when I find it then it can take about 10 minutes to totally dry.

I use this with so many different brands of nail polish (opi, essie) Makes the manicure last me for well over a week ( I just like to refresh it every week but you can get away with it for longer) pretty lightweight and gives thin layers which is nice for a base coat. Orly brushes are one of my faves, perfect size for my nails and not too flexible like you find with cheaper nail polishes. Well worth the price I will always re-purchase this item.

I was sceptical because of the reviews, but my sister purchased it first and could not stop revving about it. When I bought it, I understood why. Compared to other base coats, the lack of thickness when applying work in your favour. Because it dries really fast, you can apply your regular nail polish at any speed without worrying about bumps etc. Usually my basecoats give me up to 3 days of chip/free nails. At best this one gives me about 5 days. But I’m also really picky, when I see one tiny chip- everything must go. But if you can live with small chips, it could probably last you a full week.

Why did you choose this product over others?: Wanted to try out a non gel led type rubber base. Been using it for three weeks now- alone and under polish and my nails definately feel stronger. Was worried that the colour would look odd when not using polish on top but it doesnt

I have some China Glaze nail polish in a great colour, but it chips if I look at it too hard! A Google search suggested that using this as a base coat may help. Day 4, usual chores and activities. Not a ding!!!! It also works really well as a sticky base for advanced nail stamping.

Maaaan, this bonder is a game changer. I used it under nail wraps and normal nail polish also. Both of them stayed on for more than a week without chipping! You just have to use a tiny bit of bonder, leave it to dry (it's gonna be sticky even after drying!) then use your favourite nail varnish. Top coat, and done! Will make it long lasting.
