essie Nail Care, 8-Free Vegan, Speed Setter Top Coat, quick-dry nail polish, 0.46 fl oz

My nails were so brittle after wearing gel polish for many months. I used this polish for about a month and my nails look better than ever. You have to keep applying the polish over several days because it's very light and peels off but it's well worth it. My nails are growing long and are no longer splitting and chipping.

This top coat is excellent. It really speeds up the drying of the polish and keeps my nails chip-free and with an incredible shine for days.

The best top coat i have ever used. Better than mooncat, seche vite, etc. It self levels accidental dents, has no shrinkage and dries fast.

After putting this on, my nails looked nice and felt sturdier and I got a few compliments on my nails. However, they started chipping very quickly after my first shower with it on, I'm not sure if it's visible in the photo but the tips have already started chipping. I will still continue to use this product though

I do my own nails & keep them natural. This stays in my purse & use it often! The scent is really nice! Great product.

I wear acrylic nails and they have RUINED my natural nails. They were weak, brittle, splitting, wouldn't grow. I wanted to stop wearing the acrylic nails to help my nails recover but my nails were a mess. I bought this based on the positive reviews, hoping for the best but not expecting much. I was very positively surprised. This stuff works great! My nails are stronger, way less brittle and they have started growing! No more splitting! In the beginning, i wore 2 coats of it under my acrylic nails and that actually protected them and my nails grew and hardened under them. I am very happy with this product!! My only con would be I don't love the smell, but other than that it's great. It evens dries pretty quickly!

The media could not be loaded. My nails can grow well but they always chip and flake. Especially my dominant hand thumb and middle finger.I am a gym girl, I wash dishes, I cook for my lovef ones, I type on the keyboard 8-12 hours a day, I am a dog mom, I box. I wanted a little extra protection and mostly was wanting a little color while I take my month long break from nail polish to reduce yellowing and stuff so I can have a very nice french tip for a wedding. I used it on my toes too. My nails immediately felt more protected and stronger. It looks like the stains are fading. This video is with 2 coats of the purple one on. Cannot wait to try the pink!!

I like that this polish work as both a base and top coat. I love that Essie is vegan and 8 free as well. It’s affordable compared to other companies that sell vegan ‘X amount free’ nail polishes and products. This bottle while last me a long time so that’s awesome! It gives your nails a shiny top coat and would even work on its own without a polish to give your natural nails a bit of a shine.I do have to say that I hate the way it smells. It filled the whole room the instant the cap came off. I am extremely sensitive to smells so the experience was a bit over stimulating. I even wear a mask while painting my nails to try and avoid the smells but this polish permeated everything. Once the cap was back on, the scent calmed down. So thankfully only one coat is needed before and after the color polish.Edit:It’s been over a week since I painted my toes and there is no chipping. They still look great and are holding up nicely.I painted my finger nails 3 days ago and 2 of my nails have chipped badly and a third has just started chipping. I updated my rating to a 3 star due to this.The polish works great for toes but not so great for fingers
