Not bad
Dries quick but does chip within two days from the edges.
Nail polish staple
This top coat works well with any Essie nail polish and dries well without leaving that lingering sticky feeling like other top coat nail polishSalon quality
I can't rate this top coat highly enough. Super professional finish, especially when used with the Essie GC products. My nails look like they're salon quality and last 10-12 days when I re-apply the top coat. Highly recommend.Great top coat
Does the job really well and for a very affordable port.Exactly what you'd expect
Fantastic top coat option for your nails, matches the description and expectationsShiny and thick
Very shiny finish - love that it goes on quite thick, so I feel like it's giving a bit of strength and protection to my weak, flaky nails. Helps any nail polish to last for ages, I use it over all my polishes. Love that it's vegan and free of alot of nasty ingredients common to most nail polishes.Best top coat!
Shiny and long lasting. Only top coat I will ever use!Quick drying
Perfect over the top of the gel colours - this helps them to dry really quickly!Go to top coat
Great top coat, doesn't chip easily and gives a very glossy finish.Great!
Shiny top coat that lasts me well and love the design of the bottle- so chic on my dresser!Lovely overall effect. Love the shine.
Definitely helps coloured polish stay on longer. Quick drying and leaves nails with a gloss finishnice top coat
pretty long lasting as well (3 to 4 days)Great top coat
I really like this brand, the nail polishes have such great colour variety, and this top coats works great to protect the colour.Love
Only two steps to a flawless, gel-like nail polish finishSuper super
It is such a nice top coat. It made look like i had got my nails done from a shopNice
super easy to apply and removeGood
less toxic and has beautiful coloursGood
I love this brand - less toxic and has beautiful coloursGreat
My favourite top coat!Good but possibly better out there
I use this when wearing nailpolish and having a break from getting my nails done. It does give nail colour a very shiny effect. I use two coats, I find it does chip within 3-4 days so I think there could be better out there, but still a good product!Not bad
Dries quick but does chip within two days from the edges.Good
My favourite top coat! So good. I like the finish and it lasts well too.this is amazing!
this nail polish is the best gel nail polish I've ever purchased! I'm on day 6 with it and no chips or cracks at all. it has such a nice finish it makes any colour underneath shine and last so much longer than any other gel top coats.love!!!
such a great top coat, works wonders. i will re purchase this and highly recommend to allBest top coat
This top coat lasts about a week on top of any brand of nail polish and has a finish equivalent to walking out of a salon. I have looked for years for a good top coat and so glad I found one to go back and purchase on repeatLooks like you just walked out of a nail salon
I use this top coat every time I paint my nails and makes any nail polish look GREAT I have a tendency to paint my nails at night Even though I think my nails are dried I wake up with some light indentations in my polish So then in the morning I add a quick once over with this top coat and my nails look fantastic Not only does it hide imperfections my polish lasts longer and I always get compl...Read Morelove
I love using the Essie. This is probably my favourite shade. My nails are always white. I love the white mani look. looks shiny and beautiful. saves a lot time and money.Best top coat out there! So shiny and long lasting
This top coat is so so good! It gives such a shine, people often ask if I have shellac or gel on my nails when I wear it. It locks your colour on top and helps it last for up to a week. I like to use it with Essie’s gel couture colors but it is just as effective with other brands underneath too.Amazing!
So good. Combined with gel colour and genuinely looked like Shellac - got so many compliments.Good
Saves my manicure from chipping within a day. Lasts about a week.Extends the life of nail polish
The reality is regular nail polish you do at home is never going to last like going to the salon. This product really makes a difference in extending the nice look of an at home job. I was hesitant however it surpassed all expectations. Usually my nail polish peels/chips third day in, this made it last a good ten days.Cannot live without
I love painting my nails and have tried every brand out there- this by far is the best top coat I have ever used. It seals the polish, dries fast and extends OPI and other good quality nail polishes for at least a week. I’ve recommended this to so many friends- you won’t be disappointed.recommend
Fast drying, had two coats of colour and two coats of top coat in 15 minutes. The manicure has actually grown out like a regular salon manicure. Super shiny and no chips or scratches even after using steel wool to scour my pots and pans.shiny
this leaves my nails nice and shiny really nice way to top off your at home maniAmazing product
This top coat leaves your mani so shiny like a gel one! I highly recommendWanted to love
I really wanted to love the Essie 'gel' nail products. but I have tried to use several times and although it is nice and shiny and dries super quick it peels quite quickly, unlike salon gelNice and shiny
Great top coat - leaves nails nice and shiny and dries quick.Really nice to put on
Lovely shine and was really nice and easy to put on. The bottle is actually bigger than I expected! Slightly bigger than their coloured nail polish products, which makes sense. My nails last 8 days using this with other essie nail polish products.Best so far
This top coat is the best I've used so far, although I've only used one other in the past. This one holds up really well for me - it doesn't get weird dents in the top or peel/chip easily at the edges. I think the brush is a really good size, too. The brush spreads over my entire nail on every finger except my thumb nail.High shine, no shrinkage
Great high shine top coat with no shrinkage, however the top coat does begin to chip around day 5 for me.Best top coat
This is one of the best top coats I’ve used. It makes the nail polish look smoother and shinier and lasts longer.Just okay
easy to apply and dries down decently but does tend to chip within a week.Can't go wrong- excellent
This is a great top coat, leaves a nice shine and polish lasts for days! The price is great tooGreat top coat
This top coat adds a nice shine to the nails and when paired with an Essie gel couture nail polish, my manicure lasted for days without cracks.Nice shine
Put this over my normal Essie polish and it’s stayed glossy for the last 5 days so will continue to use thisNot to impressed
I purchased this top coat with one of the Gel Couture polishes. I had high hopes for this product given it is labelled as a gel top coat and states "long-lasting".
I only got a couple of days of nice nails until the colour started chipping, which is what I expect for a regular polish and top coat that is half the price.
I won't be purchasing again.Ok topcoat- not the best. Just average
I Purchased the topcoat in combination with the same brand nail polish and although the colored nail polish it was disappointing, this topcoat did what it said it does and is just like any other topcoat I’ve used, nothing special about it and also nothing that I didn’t really like. Just your avarege topcoat- leaves nails shiny, doesn’t last any longer than any other top coat I’ve used.Great!
easy to apply, quick drying and adds great shine! Everything you need in a top coat. Love the bottle too!Classy chic
Tried after reading many rave reviews. No disappointments here.love it
The finish of this polish is high gloss, making the shade look chic and expensive. This wears for at least a week without chipping. Highly recommend.Excellent
I great top coat that has a great brush. Easy to apply and dries well, and makes your manicure both shiny and last longer.Amazing
All Essie products are amazing including this. Great quality and really gives salon manicure vibes.Great for the price
This product definitely makes my nail polish last a little bit longer!
It is not much different comparing to the high end gel polish products which I have used, so it is worth it in consideration of the price.
Shiny
A lovely shiny top coat, last a few days though not 2 weeksA good at-home-manicure product
I've never had this product last perfectly for more than 3 days, so I don't think it lives up to it's claims in that way. However, it is a beautiful, think, shiny formula that goes on easily and locks in your nail colour. For the first few days it looks just as good as a salon mani, but don't expect the same longevity.Nail game: strong!
The Essie gel couture line is perfect for time poor people, and the top coat seals the deal! My nails last upwards of three days completely chip free (I have three young sons so this is a huge achievement!) and it dries super fast. A must have if you’re using this line of polishes!Alright
Sometimes it chips which is annoying but otherwise it’s nice and dries quickly.Okay
Not the best topcoatshiny but not long lasting
I've used this on two different essie couture colours and both chipped within 24 hours. It's nice and shiny, and applies well, but overall I'm not impressed with the gel couture range.Best at home nails I’ve had
As soon as top coat dries the nails are hard and withstand daily activities better than other brands. Provides a nice shine yet not think like salon gels. Lasted a week before chipped.Super glossy
I love how thick and glossy this topcoat is. Leaves all manicures looking fresh and glossy.great top coat but a bit pricey
this top coat makes my polish shiny and "gel looking". however for the price i was a little underwhelmed with how long it lasted - it had chipped after 2 days.Fantastic product
I love this top coat. Not only is it affordable, it has such a nice high glossy finish. Most importantly, it does not add a thick layer on top of my nail polish. I would highly recommend this!High quality
This gel coat is so great when I need to cover a not so good polish application, it smoothens & blurs mistakes and make it look like I went to a salon to get them done. These are pretty pricey but I really recommend trying these out if you're in the market for a quality polish.
