CND Vinylux Long Wear Shine Top Coat, Quick Drying Formula, Easy to Remove, 0.5 Fl Oz

Great tip coat for home manicures. Goes on easily. Nice wide brush that holds a good amount and allows a single swipe for smaller nails. Helps a manicure last longer. I'm rough on my nails and using this means a manicure can last a week or so rather than just a couple days. Minimizes chipping. You need to wait after applying a couple coats of color lacquer, maybe 10 minutes, so that the earlier coats are thoroughly dry or the brush may pick up some color.

I'm a huge fan of this top coat. I do my nails at home and try to avoid using a UV light. This top coat delivers a shiny, gel-like finish and dries unbelievably fast. And it also somehow seems to harden unlike any other top coat I've used. You can put this on and resume normal tasks within 10-15 minutes without ruining your nails. I even mix and match with my favorite Essie nail color and get beautiful results. Prepping the nails properly is important, but this stuff is just good, period.

Love this brand of clear top coat. It really helps my non-gel polish last long with a marble-like shine. My nail tech told me that this may be discontinued so I ordered to have some until/if I need to find something else as great as this has been for over 8 years for me.

It looks like it works. It prolongs the life of my nail polish.

CND Top Coat ReviewRating: ★★☆☆☆As an avid nail enthusiast, I had high hopes for the CND Top Coat, expecting it to deliver the long-lasting, glossy finish it’s known for. Unfortunately, my experience fell short of these expectations.Performance:The primary issue with the CND Top Coat is its lack of adhesion. After carefully applying it over my manicure, I noticed that it simply didn’t stick to the nail surface properly. Within a day, the top coat began peeling off in large chunks, leaving my manicure vulnerable and chipped. This was particularly disappointing as I followed the application instructions meticulously, ensuring my nails were clean and dry.Durability:One of the top coat’s selling points is supposed to be its durability. However, due to the peeling issue, it failed to protect my manicure for more than a day. This contrasts sharply with other top coats I’ve used, which typically extend the life of my manicure by at least a week.Finish:When first applied, the CND Top Coat does provide a beautiful, glossy finish. However, this is short-lived due to the adhesion problem. The initial shine and smoothness are undermined by the quick deterioration.Application:Application-wise, the product goes on smoothly and dries relatively quickly. The brush is of good quality, allowing for even coverage. However, these positives are rendered moot by the product’s inability to stay on the nails.Conclusion:Overall, while the CND Top Coat has the potential to deliver a professional-looking finish, its major flaw in not adhering properly to the nails makes it a poor choice for anyone looking to extend the life of their manicure. There are many other top coats on the market that offer better durability and reliability. Sadly, I cannot recommend the CND Top Coat based on my experience.

I think this is ok. Not sure the shine or color lasted longer than with a different topcoat.

Have been using this top coat for long time now and Amazon is the only place to find it at a great price.

This is my favorite polish. It says on and looks very shiny!
