This is amazing

This is the best topcoat I've used hands down! I can't say enough good things about it. It makes your nails look so shiny and smooth, it has a gel like finish as the name implies. I've worn this paired with the gel couture nail polish in pinned up and it doesn't chip no matter how rough I am with do...

I recieved this top coat along with a color in my Influenster box this month. I was excited to try it since I've always been a huge Essie fan, but I was super bummed at the results. It looked beautiful and applied so well, which is why I'm giving it two stars. The applicator was amazing, I always ha...

Although this is not something I will ever wear on my fingernails…it certainly will be a staple on my toes! Has a really great high shine and I had no issues with chipping after wearing it for a good month or so.

[I received this product in exchange for my honest review] Thought this top coat was really good. I honestly don't really use top coat very often but think this a product I would use again the future. Made the polish last a long time and resisted the chipping.

Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend to a friend

the best top coat i have ever used

WHERE has this been my entire life? I swear every top coat I have ever bought takes 7 light years to dry, flakes off, doesnt play well with anything under it.. but this.. is MAGIC! I will say I didn't even use an Essie polish under it, either! This was fully dry in maybe 2 minutes tops. And when I say dry, I mean like could touch things and move around my house without the polish getting indented and ripped off the nail. it is truly hard like gel too and adds a perfect gloss. I am so impressed. I expected it to be good with almost a 5 star rating, but this is seriously amazing! If you're looking for a top coat this is the one!
