Q: What's the difference between Ultimate Shield and Double Duty? Which one is good for a base coat to prevent yellow nails?
submitted by Targettie808 - 3 months ago
A: Hello! Thank you for your question. Our Sally Hansen Double Duty, used as a base coat, is designed with our Panthenol formula that smoothes the nail's surface and helps hold on to color. As a top coat, Nylon and Pro-Vitamin B5 shield nails with a hard, chip-resistant finish. This 2-in-1 base and top coat protects and strengthens nails for stronger, flawless manicures that last in one bottle! The Ultimate Shield used as a base coat is designed with a Micro-Polymer formula that reinforces nails, boosting strength and flexibility.

Just bought this last week and am on my second manicure using it. I can confidently say this product is amazing. It’s very clear and glossy, my last manicure the polish lasted a whole week (not gel and I have very long natural nails)! I was expecting it to be chipped in two days but this product is amazing as both a base and topcoat

This is my favorite base coat! The price is so good! I use this on my press on nails and it honestly makes my nails last so much longer, I’m talking weeks! Highly recommend this as a go to basecoat/topcoat!

I love SH's nylon coats, but this is not quick-drying nor is it advertised as such. I apply SH's InstaDri topcoat on top of this and it makes my manicures super strong! I occasionally use it as a base coat but I always use it as a topcoat

Sally Hansen Double Duty Base & Top Coat is literally the best base and top coat in one. I have been using it for years and it helps your polish stay on and keeps your nails from staining.

This is both a base and top coat, easy to apply and dries in a relatively nice manner and time. Scent isn’t too overpowering and it’s not a bad value for money. Packaging is basic.. it could be a better coat though, could be stronger and more long lasting
Keeps my nails looking healthy and shiny.

This is my favorite product. I use it alone or with a color nail polish. Leaves my nails shiny and healthy. There is minimal drying time and stays on my nails for weeks, maybe even months - very durable.
OK

It works when I'm just trying a new color for the first time, not a long time. Maybe I was leaving it on long enough, but the base and the color weren't staying on the nail long enough for me

Hello! We appreciate you taking the time to share your experience with our Double Duty Base & Top Coat. We are sorry to hear this polish did not last long enough for you. This is not the experience we hope for you to have, and we will be sure to share your feedback with the appropriate teams. To ensure proper application and to help nail polish last longer, we have provided some helpful tips below: -Before applying nail polish, we recommend wiping your nails with nail polish remover and then washing your hands with warm water to remove excess oils and dirt. -Don't buff your nails as this can make the nail surface too smooth for the polish to take hold. -After applying nail polish, allow enough time for it to dry and set. If possible, avoid hot baths and heavy housework for 12 -24 hours after doing your nails. Detergents and household cleaners can make nail polish wear off quickly. If this product still does not work for you, or if you have any questions, please reach out to us. You can give us a call at 1-800-953-5080 or chat with us through the Contact Us page on our website.

It wasn't as good as I thought it would be for the price. It chipped easily and didn't last long. It was clear and very shiny. It went on easily. The drying time wasn't too bad.

Love this product! I’ve used this product for years, and it has always served me well! I love that it is a dual-use base and top coat. It has lasted me a long time, it dries fast, and it helps my polish to last longer and look nicer. Saved you money by not requiring you to have to purchase two separate items.
Versatile!

Bought this as I'm having such bad problems with my nails from splitting and breaking off, to not getting all makes of nail varnish not staying on some for less than an hour so after reading the reviews I thought I would try this from Sally Hansen before giving up and going to false ones. I was so hopeful that this would work, I followed all the instructions used as a base coat and then nail varnish and then as a top coat. That was last night, and then by 11 am this morning , I noticed that one nail was totally void of nail varnish. No chips, but the whole nail varnish had come off at 1 go. So again, another one that won't for some reason won't stay on my nails. Totally gutted considering the reviews. The look was fabulous, nice and shiny, and I so hoped that it would work.

Faster drying

I used as base and top coat with a nail polish color in between. I was really surprised that I got a whole weeks worth of last. That’s more than the more expensive brand I usually use.  I also really liked the brush. It was easy to put on with just one or two strokes the drying time was faster than my usual brand also within a couple minutes.

Great product.. It goes on really nice. It doesn’t last very long as a topcoat. I experience chipping fairly quickly with regular nail polish. But with gel it is pretty good.
