Never again.
I needed an emergency topcoat and this was only $1.99, so I bought it. It was a complete waste of time and money. It started developing these little cracks in under an hour and chipped off in a couple of hours. You're better off without any topcoat. — 1 year, 11 months agoThis review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 1 of 1 people said helpful

Its ok
I don't notice my nail polish lasting longer with this over it, but it does look shiny and it does apply smoothly. It is only a dollar, so I wasn't expecting much, and didn't get that much in return. — 2 years, 7 months agoThis review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 1 of 1 people said helpful

Pffffhh...
Eh. It's cheap, it's shiny, but you have to wait forever for it to dry. When I had all the time in the world in high school, waiting was acceptable. Now, it's not worth the dollar. — 1 year, 3 months agoThis review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 0 of 0 people said helpful

Not so good
So when I used this to coat a nail art design that had taken me over an hour it used suck and clumped on the design. It messed my design up! After so much hard work it was gone in a second. This is one of the worst topcoat I've used. It even leaves 'little fibers" or strings of the product after you apply the product. Its like when you use a hot glue gun and those little strings of the glue fly up when you glue something. Don't buy it. — 1 year, 5 months agoThis review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 1 of 1 people said helpful

Good enough
Definitely not the best topcoat out there, but if you're in a pinch and just need something on your nails, this will work. I don't know about anyone else, but mine has a kind of lavenderish subtle tint to it, which doesn't bother me too much. I actually use this polish as a base to make my own colors with crushed eyeshadows. — 1 year, 10 months agoThis review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 0 of 1 people said helpful

You're better off without any top coat.
Being the beauty pioneer that I am, you will rarely find me using my trusty anything. As long as there's something new to try, I will be trying it (unless it has a very low rating). So when I saw this top coat at the store, I thought, "Why not? After all topcoat is top coat, right?" Wrong. This particular top coat not only neglects to provide a layer of protection to your nail color, but it flakes off unevenly before your color even decides to chip! NYC has some great little finds, but this product is one that you can save money by avoiding. — 1 year, 11 months agoThis review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 0 of 0 people said helpful

Used to be in love...
Until they changed the formula or something. I thought oh it's been an unusually hot summer, maybe the stores' air conditioner just isn't up to par and this bottle was affect. I bought another one from another store later on...same problem--the top coat would chip off in PIECES the day I apply it or the next day at the latest. I expect my home manicures to last at least 4-5 days, if not more with the right top coat. Prior to this issue, I was a faithful user of this product for YEARS. This polish gives you that *still wet* look, but now it's just not worth it since it doesn't last a day. Skip it! SO disappointed. — 2 years, 1 month agoThis review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 0 of 0 people said helpful

Works good!
I bought this top coat because it wasn't expensive. To my surprise it works very well. Glides on smooth and lasted for a long time. No chipping or bubbling. Actually it provided a nice shiny coat to my nails. This is definitely worth a try if you are looking for something inexpensive. — 2 years, 7 months agoThis review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 1 of 1 people said helpful
