I've repurchased this multiple times, but I will say that I'm not able to use it past halfway through the bottle before I have to buy a new one. Maybe because it's so quick setting that the exposure to air makes the formula start drying more quickly when using it consistently. Typically when I get about 50% into the bottle the formula gets reeeeeally thick and then by 60% in it's almost unusable. Even though I'm not able to get full utilization of all the product I still repurchase because the quick setting finish makes it worth it.
It goes on easy, dries quickly, and no streaking. It smooths a small amount but not as much as I had hoped. It doesn't help my polish last any longer but it doesn't cause early flaking/peeling.
Overall it is a decent base coat but if you want to make your polish last longer or need to even out your nails/ridges, you may want to try something else. If you need just an easy quick, no frills base coat then give it a try.
Dries fast, check.
Long lasting, nope!
I need to preface this review by stating that I never had a good experience with a topcoat that is fast drying. I also have very 'bendy' nails - no amount of vitamins help. Seche lasts about two days for me before peeling/coming straight off without little to no help from myself. My nail polish chipped within two days after applying the Essie Good to Go topcoat. I even used gloves to wash dishes with! On the third day, one nails' polish completely peeled right off in the shower, I didn't even know when it happened, maybe when I was washing my hair? So I guess it's good for those who just needs something to last at least two days, or better for those who have thicker nails, or maybe just those who change their polish color more than once a week.
