Best Top Coat! I love this Top coat, it dries faster than regular nail polish, leaves amazing shine that lasts a long time! Almost looks like gel polish which is a huge win for me as my weak and...

Purchased after reading reviews of lots of different topcoats, because I wanted to move away from shellac, but love the glossy look. THis is excellent - I use it over Essie's Treat, Love and...

A nail salon I go to uses this over any type of polish, regardless of the brand. I have noticed when they use it my manicures last way longer without chipping. I love it so much I bought my own...

I have been wearing nail polish since I was in grade 8. More or less non-stop for many years. This is the most perfect durable top coat. It gives nails the type of shine that used to only be...

This stuff is so good. It has replaced Essie’s own Good To Go as my holy grail top coat. Now, I don’t use it with the matching Gel Coture polishes, I just use it with my original Essie, OPI,...

I have used every type of polish and topcoat. This is definitely the best formula for longer lasting nail manicures. Mine don’t last a week, but compared to my usual one to two days, this polish...

When I use this in conjunction with another Essie Couture nailpolish, it definitely lasts a week. When paired with another nail polish underneath, there is a lot of shrinkage. Overall, this is one...

I've been using Essie polishes for many years now and I was pretty certain this would be a decent product. I've been using it for a few months now, and I could not figure out why my manicures...

I’m really getting good results with this. I ran out of my usual quick dry top coat which isn’t readily available at CVS etc. so I grabbed one of these. This dries quickly which I love, but is...

This is a very good alternative for the Chanel Le Gel TC and far better than the Sally Hansen Miracle Gel TC. Pros: - long-lasting glossy look (check application tips beneath) - acceptable price...

I am on my first go-round with Essie Gel Couture (long wearing hybrid lacquer) and my jury is still out. It is hard to judge after only 2 days the true performance of this top coat - plus my...

I bought this top coat and the color for underneath. Lasted about 12 hours until I took a shower and it started peeling.

This is a wonderful top coat that adds shine and durability. It definitely prevents chipping and extends wear-time by a few extra days. The formula is thick, but dries quickly. It is superior to...

I LOVE the Essie Gel Couture colors & own several BUT I'm not particularly fond of the matching topcoat. It doesn't really do anything for my manicure & I can do just as well (or better, actually)...

Ok, I have to admit that I'm a bit disappointed because my nail polish still chips easily although I try not to be rough on my nails and it's not inexpensive either. On the bright side it's quite...

The brush is great, and this works well as a topcoat but the smell is very strong and lingers for a long time (mind you, I'm sensitive to scents). I don't find this to be the case with the actual...

I bought this top coat together with a polish from Essie's new Gel Couture line and gave the polish top marks for longevity and staying power as well as shininess. As an experiment, I decided to...
