Comments about Sally Hansen Insta-Dri Anti Chip Top Coat:
True to what it says! Only downside is that the polish is not completely dry after 30 seconds, but it is dry enough to where your not going to mess up your fresh nails while they finish drying! No smuging, indentions, scuffs, this polish prevents it all! I'm addicted and love this product!

Comments about Sally Hansen Insta-Dri Anti Chip Top Coat:
I've been doing my own nails since I was five, and at 58 I've finally found a top coat that works! I work hard with my hands all day, and have (until now) never found a top coat that prevents chips for more than a couple of days. After as week of housecleaning and cooking for a family holiday party, my nails still were un-chipped. And, it was on top of SH Xtreme strength Black Out - Flawless! Folks complemented me on my nails and couldn't believe the manicure was a week old. Look for that red bottle, Thanks Sally Hansen!!!

Comments about Sally Hansen Insta-Dri Anti Chip Top Coat:
Love it! I also found out by accident, if u get nail polish on ur fingers while painting nails, when applying the insta dry to nails also apply it over any polish on the skin and when it completely dries it will peel off the polish from the skin. Awesome.
Pros

- Good Applicator Brush
Cons

Comments about Sally Hansen Insta-Dri Anti Chip Top Coat:
This is so much better than using a regualar top coat and waiting for it to dry. But it does not dry the polish entirely as described. It says it will dry all polish in 30 seconds as long as you wait 2 minutes after the last coat before applying this top coat. I did that and it seemed to only dry the nails to the touch, but still would dent as it wasnt dried through. Was not good against chipping. But still better than sitting around waiting for them to air dry.

Comments about Sally Hansen Insta-Dri Anti Chip Top Coat:
I have been using this product for 7 years as a top coat. It does not alter the color of my nail polish nor chip easily. I work craft shows and am constantly moving merchandise and boxes around. My nails often take knocks and bangs. This product has proven to work the best for me and is good for 5-6 days without chipping.

Comments about Sally Hansen Insta-Dri Anti Chip Top Coat:
I've been using the OPI rapid dry top cost for a year now and decided to try this one since I wasn't happy with the OPI...it was gloppy and was messing up my manicure. So glad I made the change!
Pros

Comments about Sally Hansen Insta-Dri Anti Chip Top Coat:
It ruined the nail polish underneath! Even if I let the color completely dry for a few hours before applying (the package says to wait 2 minutes), it smears the previous coats and make them uneven (in both tone and texture).
Pros
- Easy to Apply

Comments about Sally Hansen Insta-Dri Anti Chip Top Coat:
I have been a religious user of this product for some time. I've even used it to give myself a manicure in the car (not while being the one driving, of course), and it dried incredibly fast! However, I have noticed that while I have gotten a few days out of my nails before chipping, it doesn't last as long as some of the other top coats out there. It's perfect for a quick on the go manicure, and be sure to pair it with a decent base coat. I've noticed that while using poor base coats, the quality of the top coat is extremely diminished and is basically only useful for its quick drying qualities.
