    Quel produit fait réellement la différence?

    J'ai testé la base et la couche de finition avec un vernis d'une autre marque, et je n'ai pas été impressionnée par le résultat. Toutefois, après avoir utilisé la base, le vernis et la couche de finition de la marque Creative Play, j'ai été ravie.

    Okay for a base coat :)

    I've received the CND CREATIVE PLAY BASE COAT to try :) used other brands but didn't use one with a colour to it. First time trying out this brand. Average bristle sizes so it takes more to cover the nail completely. I've found the polish didn't chip too quickly either. Maybe about the 3rd or 4th day when I noticed some slight chipping of the colour. Not sure if the top coat helped prevent that or that the formula for the polish in general. It dried pretty quick too. Makes it nice when you're in a rush. Didn't like how runny the base coat was. Tried using it as a polish colour. Did 2 coats, didn't really like it as a polish colour. Alright for a base colour. Would definitely recommend to family and friends.

    A great base coat that prevents staining

    I received this product complimentary from Chick Advisor.
    Overall, this base coat worked well. It dried fast, stopped lacquer from peeling off, and prevented the staining of my nails. That is really all you can ask for from a base coat, so I'm a fan! You should definitely give it a try!

    Makes polish stick!

    This base coat works great at making polish adhere to the nail so that it is long lasting. It works with other polishes too. I would definitely purchase since it is so versatile and does a great job. I received this product complimentary to test out for review #gotitfree

    Great Foundation to Manicure

    I was lucky enough to sample the CND Creative Play line for free in exchange for my opinion on the products, including the base coat. It went on smoothly, dried quickly and made my nails feel more durable. I only gave 4 stars because I did not find the polish system as a whole to last any longer than any other brand I have tried. I look forward to trying the basecoat with other polishes!

    Does what it's supposed to do

    I received this product for free as part of the Product Review Club.

    As far as base coats go, it did what it was supposed to do. Went on smoothly and dried quickly. I don't find it any better or worse than other base coats I've used.

    If I find it on sale somewhere I'd probably buy it again.

    great basecoat

    I know many people skip this step but I LOVE BASECOATS and this was definitely a good one. I injured my thumb years ago and it resulted in nail trauma so there's a permanent ridge halfway down my nail. Without base coat, you can definitely see the dents/ridges. Aside from preventing staining, it also helps smooth your nail.. I really like this one.. easy to apply and quick to dry.

    Stain protection

    I #gotitfree, along with the lacquer from the same brand in Crimson Like It's Hot. After wearing the lacquer with and without the base coat, I didn't notice much difference in terms of resistance to chipping. I also didn't notice a difference in staining, since the lacquer did not stain at all with or without the base coat. However, after trying out this base with another polish from my collection which I know is prone to staining, I did notice some protection. The base was easy to apply and dried quickly. For the price, I'd say it might be worth it.

    CND Base coat

    #gotitfree tried the CND peony ride and the base coat was amazing. I plan on using it with all my nail polishes now. It prepped my nails perfectly for the polish.

    Great Base Coat

    I started using a non-clear basecoat from a different brand a few months ago, so when I opened the box I received from chickadvisor, I was excited to see that the CND base coat was non-clear and hopefully produce the same results. It did! It gave me a richer polish colour as well as a longer lasting colour. It also did a great job protecting the nail. I would definitely recommend!
