I have been painting my nails for several years without a top coat but realized since I prefer a glossy or sparkly finish, I need one. Fast Forward is great because is always ensures a glossy...

Great topcoat. Very quick drying, about 5 minutes to set (though I always leave about 20 mins for nail polish to dry fully). No chips for about 5 days which is very good for me as I am hard on my...

My review is based on comparison to Seche Vite, which is the best topcoat for me, so far. China Glaze Fast Forward smells a million times better than Seche Vite, which makes it much more pleasant...

Easily one of my favourite top coats! really makes your nails shine and dries it super fast. Only problem arises when you paint the top coat and some of it gets on your skin. It makes the polish...

I reviewed this product years ago and even after all this time, and trying many other quick dry products, this is still my absolute favorite. I won't do a mani without it. Last week I had a base...

As a longtime fan of Seche Vite, I was a little skeptical when the SA in Sally recommended this to me. She assured me that if I hated it, I could bring it back (they were out of Seche Vite)....

I am a nurse and I love to have my nails painted. Been painting my nails since I was a kid. A good top coat had always been tough to find. I change my polish every 2-3 days (sometimes just put an...

I am a huge fan of this top coat! I recently added it to my order on nailpolishcanada.com and once I tested it I fell in love. This top coat dries super quickly and it covers your nail with a...

I bought this yesterday and used it over an existing manicure. It was only about £5 which surprised me - I was expecting a lot more from a premium brand. The bottle and brush are bog standard...

Best fast dry top coat ever. I recently tried SV, and now i'm totally convinced that China Glaze Fast Forward is a lot better. Pros: Really cheap (in Chile, US$ 7; Seche Vite, if you can find...

This product is overall really good. I was looking for a top coat and I found this at Sally's for $5 and thought I would give it a try. This worked really well for me and kept my nail polish on for...

Dries very quickly! Also adds a pretty shine. The smell however is very strong and odd. I'd rather smell acrylic monomer lol also it does not keep nail polish on longer than normal

Okay, not really sure what I think of this. It makes my nail polish really shiny and pretty, but it SMELLS horrible. It's like a synthetic fruity smell.. I can't get past it makes me want to throw...

While I love China Glaze's polishes, this top coat was really rather disappointing. It did dry very quickly, but the shine was really lacking compared to Seche Vite, for example, or O.P.I. Also,...

China Glaze is the best quick drying top coat that I've used - it dries out soft polish in under a minute, and adds an extra shine to my polish. An extra great bonus is how Fast Forward also...

This stuff is cheaper than Seche Vite, and the shrinking isn't as bad which I really appreciate! But I let my polish dry for 10 minutes before I put on this fast dry top coat and it STILL smudged...

I quite like this one, it dries fast and gives nice shine. It also doesn't go goopy easily. However, I'm not the biggest fan of the brush in this one and also the smell is a bit weird for me.
