Pros & Cons
Pros
This product is thicker than most polishes. It’s the perfect thickness and so smooth!
See my photos. They look more natural than when i used to get them professionally done. And it lasts.
Body guard has an easy to control formula, which makes it perfect for beginners. You just swipe it on, exactly like polishing your nails.
Cons
Make your nails weaker! Begins to chip and peel after 24hrs. Does not work, peels after 3 days. Looks like it was already returned after someone used it and spoiled the brush.
Highlights
Quality
So far i really like this product
Removal i was quite pleased with the removal process
I have not experienced any lifting peeling or chipping with this product
I did end up having to scrape some and got some damage in the process but i blame the extra thickness for that not the product itself
Price
I went back forth between this product and the orly builderinabottle
Packaging/appearance
I was nervous about having to scrape the gel off my nails and damage them
This was my second try with it and i decided to add glitter in the gel

I do have and used the orly easy off base coat the first time i tried it but now i simply wipe my natural nail with alcohol apply a nail wrap and then paint on this builder gel

I got some generic foil soak off wraps and it usually takes about 10 minutes with orly genius remover to soak them off and the soak off is more like rolling sticky stuff off than popping off hard flakes
