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...

Poor Quality
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...

Yes yes yes!
I absolutely love this top coat. It is quick-drying, protective, gives great shine and luster, applies so smoothly, and helps my polish wear forever!! I never wear nail polish because it immediately chips and peels, regardless of what top coat I choose. When I wear this, however, I can get 10 days or more out of one paint job. I love this so much!!
Gel topper
This leaves a nice shine on the nails and applies with a nice thick gel look. The issue I have is with the dry time. Typically I will always use a quick dry topcoat and I have added that over top of this to get it dried in a reasonable time but you also change the gel look this is designed to create. I didn't notice anything out of the ordinary where scent is concerned. The bottle shape is fun and doesn't really take any more storage space than the straight up and down bottles. These are even easier to grip and hold onto to open and close.
Clear coat
Dry time is minimal! The application brush is rounded making it easy to apply. Great shine and has a gel texture and finish. Chipping hasn't been an issue!
Long lasting
I've been using Essie products for years and love them!! This top coat makes your color last so much longer without chipping!!
Doesn't protect
I love the color options. it goes on so pretty. but the top coat does not do a good job of protecting the color. it's is wearing away at the edges and it's not like I am doing any strenuous work with my hands.
