Ridge Filler Base Coat

Love this product. The brush is amazing.

I’m really happy with this ridge filler base coat. It goes on easily and smoothly, creating a nice even surface for polish. It also dries fairly quickly, which makes the whole manicure process easier. Once I applied my lacquer, it went on smoothly over the base, and the final result looked great. I’ve had it on for almost a week now, and my nails still look really good. I didn’t experience any irritation, which is always important, and the price feels very reasonable for the quality. Overall, this is a great base coat that delivers on smoothing and longevity—I’d definitely keep using it.

I have used this base coat for several years and it works well and doesn't damage nails. It also dries very quickly and has no harsh smell.

I bought ella + mila base coat, nail polish and top coat. I originally used just their polish. It wore better than other polishes I had used in the past but not as long as I had anticipated, plus it still chipped a bit on the second day. I contacted the seller about it and they were very helpful. They recommended that to get the full benefit of their products, I should use the base and top coats along with the polish. The photo attached to my review is a picture I took 4 days following application of all three products. There are no chips whatsoever! I even did moderate cleaning yesterday wearing no gloves! I am a believer, and will be a steady customer! Since it’s my first time wearing the polish, I’ve not yet removed it to see if my natural nails are still as strong and healthy as they were before applying. But I feel like they will be. When I removed just the polish the first time I tried it before the base and top coats, it came off very easily with polish remover and my nails looked just fine.

While it is an excellent toxin free base coat, I was hoping it would have a leveling and smoothing effect for nail ridges. It’s just a decent base. Does dry fast and the odor is low

It seems to be working well thus far.

Be Very careful if you have sensitive skin. I applied All About the Base last night. I thought everything was fine. Took my son to school came home and EXTREMELY ITCHY fingers all around my nails. Even feels itchy under my nails which is insane. Turns out this product contains a known allergen, Benzophenone-1. It acts as an ultraviolet (UV) stabilizer. It also Prevent color changes: It resists the photo-degradation of the polish's polymers when exposed to sunlight, which prevents the base coat and the polish applied over it from discoloring or yellowing over time. Also Maintain product integrity: It helps maintain the overall stability of the formula while it is still in the bottle, ensuring the product stays fresh and effective on the shelf. Lastly it Allows for clear packaging: By acting as a UV blocker, it enables manufacturers to use clear glass bottles for packaging. This one is the crazy part as a base coat doesn't need to ne seen. Perhaps companies who want to be non-toxic should invest in uv treated glass to protect us from yet more chemicals. Another Base coat that isn't for me! Maybe one day I will find something non-irritating. Guess it time to shop other places besides Amzon. Alo it didn't help my ridges much even with 2 thin coats! This insane itching is awful. Never again.

I'm not sure how this is considered a ridge filler. It's really just a matte base coat, and it's fine for that.
