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...

Best top coat I've ever tried
This top coat is literally the best top coat ive ever tried. I did my toes a week ago with a different brand nail polish and added this on top, it still looks PERFECT, glossy, and absolutely no chips. This is coming from someone who used to deal with chips all the time. It also leaves a glossy finish that looks like gel. It dries so fast after 5 mins, even if the nail polish i use under is still a little tacky, it makes it dry to touch in 5 mins (i do also use dry drops which helps). I tried seche vite and even dazzle dry and both products did not work well for me like this one. (Also didnt last) It truly makes your manis/pedis last over a week. I will never use another top coat again!!! This is everything i ever wanted, and plus looks exactly like gel!!!
Unsure
Seems like there was a formula change or maybe my bottle was older? I used this before and seemed to hold perfectly, but trying it again now the same polish seems to peel up faster. I'm trying a different top coat and probably just going to switch away from Essie
Nurse Approved
By far the best top coat I've used as a nurse! Sanitizing my hands all day ruins my nails by the end of my second shift with any other top coat I've tried. This is the only one that holds up. If you work in healthcare I would highly recommend!
best topcoat ever
dries fast and actually looks/feels like gel!!! theres no other top coat like this
Shine
I really love it give you shine gel polish and my polish last a little longer
