  My Favorite Base Coat

  by shriekingviolet (76 reviews)

  Top 500 ReviewerTrusted Review

  Great product! Makes most nail polishes, both cheap and expensive hold firm on my nails from 5-10 days. After 2-3 days I do see some minor (like < 1mm in size) wearing at the tips, but unlike with every other base/topcoat combo I've tried, that wearing never seems to contribute to larger chips or peeling. With this I ca...n usually make a manicure last a week and still look decent when I take it off. Any time I get lazy and skip using this product I regret having done so the very next day. One drawback I noticed is that after a few months of weekly usage, some of my nails (not polish, *nail*) started peeling. It was a bit distressing at first, but I tried putting on a nail strengthener underneath Stickey and that seems to fix it. The extra layer between my nail and Stickey, thankfully, doesn't weaken Stickey's effectiveness any, so I'm not marking down the product by much. Obviously, I'd prefer a basecoat that did Stickey's job without the cost to my nails, but I can't find anything that works as well as it does, so I'm inclined to believe that's just the price you have to pay to keep a manicure looking nice for so long!

  Makes Nails Peel

  by periwinkle1107 (48 reviews)

  I used this for about 3 weeks before I realized it had ruined my nails. It worked ok as a base, but it made my nails peel and they became very weak. It took weeks for me to get my nails back to their original strength. I like the other products I've used from CND, but I would advise everyone to stay away from Stickey! November 5, 2007, 7:18 pm

  Miracle for natural nails

  by tzdtzd (8 reviews)

  This product really does save both time and money. I rarely have a chip a week into my manicure, and I could never say that prior to Stickey. Also, strengthen with your base coat of choice, then a coat of Stickey, and then your nail color - doesn't take as long as it sounds, and is ALWAYS worth it! May 16, 2008, 9:18 am

  Fantastic

  by leelu (345 reviews)

  Apparently the point of this non-yellowing base coat is to give something to your polish to "stick" to. Good idea, but in my case, I accidentally once applied this as my base coat and forgot to polish my nails. It dried rock hard. Good for me, bad for the point of the product? Even though that happened to me I sti...ll give this a good rating. I only wear dark polish and before this I would have yellow nails all of the time. Does not have hardening ingredients, so if you need a nail fortifier try something else. I have naturally hard, strong, no ridge nails (curse me, I know), so this is perfect.

  Makes your mani/pedi last

  by beautybutterfly (10 reviews)

  CND Stickey is great. It makes my mani/pedis last two weeks without any peeling or chipping. I've been using Stickey for a few years and I take it with me whenever I have my nails done. June 11, 2008, 1:33 am

  Keeps polish on natural nails

  by mfrula (3 reviews)

  My sister introduced me to this product to keep the polish on natural nails longer. I love it, the color on my toes stay for two weeks without a touch up, and my nails look great longer than without it! December 27, 2007, 8:45 am
