Stopped me peeling nails in their tracks!

I waited a month to write a review because I wanted to see if it would help with my pealing nails. I had doubts because my other base oats are also pvb free, but they are so much better! Almost all of the peeling has grown out with no new peeling has been found! Safe to say this is the only base coat I’ll be using!

So Far So Good

I have done five manicures with the PVB base coat and so far I am extremely happy with it. My nails had bad peeling from a basecoat with PVB and already they look better. My manicure is also lasting an additional one or two days longer than they were before.

Great base, no chips in sight

Exactly the quality I expect from Cracked. Not even a whisper of a chip in a week of abusing my mani with scrubbing dishes without gloves, cleaning, gardening. My new favorite.

Great base coat!

My nails peel/flake badly with PVB base coats so was excited to try this guy out. First manicure with it lasted for over a week with only one itty bitty chip at the very end, and I'm not kind/delicate with my nails at all. And no damage I could see on my nails after removal.

not for me, but seems good!

i’ve tried this a couple times now with different polishes and it always seems to flake off of me :/ i love how thin it is though! it doesn’t work for me, but that doesn’t mean it won’t work for others

New go-to base

This one actually worked on me, I really enjoyed it compared to the sticky base coat (which did not work on me).

PVB Free Base Coat

Yaaaa!!! It worked great!

I was happy to see a PVB-free base coat to try. I’m on Day 7. Right hand has PVB-Free and left hand has Nailtiques 2, with Formalin. Identical, no chips on either hand! Very happy, because this is safer and more affordable than Nailtiques. I cannot use PVB as it causes pits and peeling in my nails. So now I just need to see how my nail health is over the next 6 months, but I’m happy so far!

Great for Peeling nails

I have a few nails that have the tendency to peel, flake or split vertically. I have been using this base on only those nails that need the extra TLC. This base has prevented my peeling from becoming worse. So that's win in my book.

PVB Free Base Coat

Such a good base coat! This will be my new go to. I'm usually very picky about my base coat and this performs just as well as my go to, but for a much lower price point!

Not for me, found it quite watery

Not for me, found it quite watery and I found my manicures last longer with a bit thicker consistency. After it dried it didn’t really look like I had anything on.

holding strong with 5+ days of wear

i typically wear a blurring base/strengthener but i like having really glassy/visible nail line jelly manicures, so this has been absolutely perfect for me.

Eh..

So far I noticed more chips using this. Out of the 3 manis I've done, 2 chipped earlier than usual. Doesn't agree with my body chemistry I guess.

Longer manicures

I love this new base coat. My manis are lasting longer and I know it is better for my nails! Love it.

My polish lasts longer

I applied it on my brittle nails and it made the polish last longer without chipping like it usually does. Used pickle plate over it. Love it

This is a really good base coat!

This is a really good base coat! Overall I am really impressed and enjoyed it more than the regular one.

It's okay but not great, got stains

This was a great base coat because it's pvb free but the claims that it's stain free is unfortunately not true for my nails. I wore spinning vinyl on top and it stained my nails this light orange. I gave it to my mom since she doesn't wear color but I wouldn't get this again.

Disappointed. Bought the base and top coat and 3 polishes. Love the colors but chips after 3 days.
