Good basecoat, horrible topcoat
By Noelle
As a top coat, it is absolutely useless. If i could give it no stars i would. But since it is a pretty decent base coat, a fair rating will be 1 star. Here are my tests.
Week A: DD basecoat, OPI nailpolish (2 layers, with a day drying time between layers). Nails lasted 3 full days after 2nd layer before chipping.
Week B: No basecoat, OPI nailpolish (same drying time). And nails lasted 2 days before chipping.
Week C: DD basecoat, OPI nailpolish (same drying time), and DD topcoat after giving the second layer of polish 4 hours to dry. 4 hours later i went for yoga class, and all my nails have imprints of the yoga mat.
Week C: I refuse to believe the evidence of Week C, so tried again. On Week D, i applied the topcoat on the morning after the day i applied the second layer of polish. That night, probably a full 12 hours later, i went to bed and woke up the next morning with a smudge on a nail, probably from clenching too hard. But still, seriously? This is worse than having no topcoat!
I've never written a review before but i really feel compelled to write this because we invest so much time on our nails. I'd like to encourage better products that help us save time, effort and irritation to be developed, and ones like these to just be taken off the shelf.

Not something I would normally review, but...
By Hannah Quintanilla
I've tried several top coats, including 'quick dry' ones, and this top coat dries faster and lasts longer than the others I've tried. That being said, I always allow for extra time drying, just because with almost any nail polish, it takes several hours to truly cure a nail polish. As a painter, I paint small-scale, hand-painted pieces all the time, that I have to spray with a clear coat, and really, this process takes 24 hours and even though the same can't exactly be said for nail polish, there are some similarities.
I'm never used this as a base coat, but I'm tempted to try it. I've done all kinds of wild, crazy designs on my nails (rather thickly, I might add) and they were able to dry, and once I coated them with this clear coat, they often lasted an unprecedented amount of time, sometimes weeks. Usually, my nail polish chips literally within hours of applying it, since I am a stay-at-home mom with no dishwasher and I wash everything by hand and I also use my hands quite a bit because I am a painter and I also paint (which is very bad for nail polish).

Would Not Recommend
By J. Willoughby
I have been using this product for a while and consistently have had the same issues. As a base coat, Double Duty works decently. I use a lot of polishes containing glitter, and Double Duty makes it really easy to remove the polishes - otherwise the glitter sticks to my nails and is next to impossible to remove. However, it also tends to peel up at my cuticles, and eventually my polish will catch on clothing or a towel and peel off in a large sheet. It makes removing polish easy and fun (but horribly unhealthy for my nails).
As a top coat, this product is the worst. I can let my nails dry for 4 hours, go to bed, and wake up with imprints of my sheets in my nails. Hours after using it, I can still leave fingerprints on my polish or smudge it. There are other base/top coats out there that are similarly priced and work much better. Would not recommend.
