Most Helpful Positive Review Amazing! Just purchased this and I am SHOCKED at how fast it dried! My biggest problem is waiting for my nails to dry, but smudging them while I wait. This is amazing! Nails dry to the touch in minutes! Please don't ever get rid of this product!
Most Helpful Critical Review Awful product I've used mine about 5 times now, it does dry fast... However, after the first use I noticed my nail color looked cracked but since I was using 3 new polishes all at once I wasn't sure which one was causing the cracks. But now I can safely say that it is the topcoat causing the weird cracked look. The first day it looks fine but by day 2 it causes the color beneath the top coat to crack and the topcoat itself begins to chip. This does not happen with any of the other cheaper topcoats that I've used. It's honestly bizarre but it looks terrible so save your money.

This product helps with a busy life as it holds nail polish on fir 2 to 3 weeks . No need to redo nails definitely 2 weeks .
have been buying this for years 5
Ronnie from San Francisco, Ca
I use this to seal my at-home painted nails. It will dry within 5 minutes enough to where I can start using my hands. Within 1 hour, I feel comfortable enough to sleep with my freshly painted nails.
would not recommend 3
NB from Chicago
It dries very quickly as it mentions. However, I applied two coats of nail paint to start with and then when I apply this top coat, it starts to move my nail paint underneath completely leaving these weird spots on my nails that look like the nail paint was wiped away. Its very strange. Need another brand for sure.

Game changer 5
Maureen from USA
I'm a noob at doing my nails. But this product is a game changer. I used to hate doing my nails because they smudged. Not with this product! They dry almost instantly!
Cracks in the paint 3
Tasha from Arizona
This polish dried quick and was glossy but as I wore it, it began to crack the sally Hansen polish underneath. Undecided on whether to recommend it, as i need to give it another chance.
I hope they make this forever.!! 5
vjcskid from Krumroy, OH
I had to stop doing my nails for many years because of a medical issue. I recently started doing them again and still had an unopened bottle of this. Put it on and was shocked that it still works. No nail chips, over a week and my nails look like I just did them.
This is SO amazing! dries in 5 minutes! no more smudged nail 5

SO good
It Works! 4
Gee1966 from Burlington, NC
I have been using this product for years. I polish my own nails usually an hour before bed. Really dries quickly and dies make even very cheap nail polish looking beautiful. Only issue-recently the last couple of bottles dried out quickly. Maybe something about the formula changed?
Great Product 5
Sally from Molalla, OR
Just as described, dry in minutes and shiny finish. Will buy again.
Best top coat 5
MCW from Galveston, TX
I have used this for years. I like it better than any high end equivalents (Essie, OPI, etc.). It dries quickly and leaves a great shine.
Weird finish on long nails... 3
sprinkles from New Jersey
I have long natural nails. Maybe an inch and a half long. Anyway, this product does dry very quickly, however, it dried to a very weird finish. On half of my nail it dried to the standard glossy finish o expect from a clear coat. However, on the tips of my nails that grow past my fingertips, it dried to a matte finish. I don't know why this would happen.
Does what it says & nice sheen 4
PolishandZoomMeetings from Vancouver Island, Canada
I keep re-buying the insta-dry and it does what it says it does. As long as I haven't applied overly thick coats of colour underneath, it dries quickly and my colour lasts up to a week.
My only complaint is that when you're about half-way through the bottle, it starts to get quick thick and difficult to work with. I'm going to try thinning it but I worry that will stop it working as a quick-dry topcoat. The bottle reads 9.17 mL but I would consider it 4 mL, just because you'll have to re-buy mid-way through.
Never Again 1
awill831 from undisclosed
I've been using this for years and the last two bottles I bought dried out super quickly into a thick goopy mess. Never used to happen before, so don't know if the formula has changed but guess I'll have to find a new top coat.
It really does work! 5
HilaryL from Syracuse, NY
I have used this product for years, it's amazing!
I like to polish my own nails. This really does dry to touch in minutes and has a great shine. To keep my color fresh, every couple days I add a coat of color and finish with this product. Typically I'll top coat my nails with insta dry about 30-20 minutes before I go to bed. I always wake up with a flawless manicure

This is bu far the BEST top coat I have ever used! I cannot say enough great things about this. With two coats, my nails look as if I had a gel manicure. It dries quick to the touch instantly unlike other top coats. I have bought so many bottles of this and will continue to purchase this.

Gem in a bottle! This is my staple and only top coat i will ever love. Its so perfect, dries quick and the shine is like gel finish. The price is right for the quality! I would highly recommend this.

This is my first time using this product I am really pleased with it in comparison to others it didn't ship and I've been wearing this for almost 4 days very impressed
THE BEST top coat.... 5
kborrascab from undisclosed
THE BEST top coat. Sally Hansen is an extremely overlooked nail brand by my generation (in my opinion) but everything they make is gold. Truly dries quickly but without drying out your nails and compromising their longevity. And it goes on so easily.
I love this top coat!... 5
krystal7 from undisclosed
I love this top coat! I always use it. It really does do a great job at not chipping and also dries in less than 5 minutes for both hands. Highly recommend, and is super easy to find in stores. I always buy this one.

this product is very true to its name. it instantly dries and my polish lasts as long as a gel manicure would last! if you don't want to use gel polish but want a manicure to last just as long, this gets the job done!
