Fast and Smooth
Using a fast drying top coat is the only way I will paint my nails and Essie's Speed Setter top coat definitely is fast enough for me. It really does dry to the touch under a minute after application. However, I wouldn't call it completely set or cured for another hour or so. There is still the poss...

Ruined my nail polish
I used the essie speed setter and it ruined my nail color. I now have cloudy tips. I will never buy this again. Waste of my time and now I have no time to fix them before a big event today.

Washed the Car and didn't it peel
I got this as a sample when Ulta was doing the nail care sets. On one hand I used the essie clear coat in the twist-shaped bottle. And on my other hand I used this stuff. I washed the car with soapy water, no gloves, scrubbed with goo gone, washed again with soapy water. At the end all of the clear coat from the twist-shaped bottle had lifted and peeled, but the 'Here to stay' STAYED!
Excellent base coat!
I love essie nail polishes for years now! I never tried the base coat until joe ans it really helps with chipping and cracking, so far I paint my nails Sunday and is Thirsday amd they are perfect! I clean every day ans im not gentle with mu hands ans works amazing. For the nail polish to work make sure the nails are free of oils and it will last!
Good, but gets weird
I really like how this goes on and dries quicky. Sometimes I wear it alone as a clear polish and it looks nice for a day or two but for some reason turns a dark color making my nails look dirty. Probably because it isn't intended to be worn alone, but still weird. Overall good product, just don't wear it by itself.

This polish does what it says- dries in less than a minute and has a high gloss shine.
My favorite topcoat

I have been using this topcoat for a few years now. After trying many other quick dry topcoats and experiencing tip shrinkage, Essie has proven to be superior. I usually paint my nails at night and this topcoat usually dries before I can get sheet marks.
