Is this product tested on animals?

No, they have pledged to be cruelty free and vegan since 2021. None of their products or ingredients are tested on animals.

Is this a ridge filler or just a strengthener? Thanks

Strengthener which it is very good for.

Will this make any difference if i use the essie gel couture nail polish (it says no base coat needed)?

I wouldn't use this with any other nail products. Its to strengthen and repair, I used it after I ruined my nails using UV gels it's really good kept my nails from breaking
