Seche Vite Fast Drying Top Coat is by far the best top coat I've used. For years I was an OPI devotee, and I assumed it was best if I used OPI topcoat with their polish. Seche Vite, however, has provided a much clearer and glossier finish than any other top coat I've tried. Also, it does not nick once it gets dry.

People tell me my nails look great all the time and they think they look professionally done. I think this is largely because of the glossy and clear finish I get from Seche Vite--though I will take credit for the years of experience, but a manicure or pedicure won't look professional no matter how good you are if you don't have a good top coat.

I've noticed that if I use and older bottle of Seche Top coat that I'll be more prone to cracking of the top coat, but that's only if I happen to pick up a bottle that is over a year old. Just be sure to keep a fresh bottle on hand and close it tightly, and this should help extend the life of your top coat.

As far as the one reviewer who complained of chips, perhaps the bottle of top coat she used was an old one. I'm not sure, but I do my own nails every week and don't have any problems with chipping (unless I'm doing hardcore work, in which case ANY polish would chip). If you're tough on your nails you may want to also use "chip skip," which is an OPI product.

One final note, as top coats do, this one does tend to absorb some of your nail color. For instance red polish might tint your bottle of top coat a light red. If you don't always use the same color of polish, I'd recommend cleaning your applicator brush after using the top coat (with polish remover). Otherwise, next time you go to do a french manicure it might have swirls of red in it.

This isn't normally the type of product I review, but when I saw my favourite top coat listed, I had to review it.

I know people everywhere will tell you how fantastic their 'can't live without' cosmetic is, but this is different. This truely and honestly is the best top coat in the entire universe. It honestly is and you really have to give it a go. Without kidding, within two three minutes of having applied this to two color coats of polish, you will be able to drive, run your fingers through your hair, put a cd in the player etc etc. And sheet marks at night??? A thing of the past with this. Even if you paint your nails a half hour to an hour before bed, there won't be a problem in the morning. This really has to be tried to be believed and I can't stop going on about the quality and professionalism of this product (I never can pronounce it, but I always use it). I wish all salons would use this so people out there get a chance to experience this amazing product for themselves. You'll be hooked and will never try anything else again.

I know I am in the minority but I do not care for Seche Vite at all. The first thing you will notice when you open the bottle is the odor it is overwhelming and gives me a headache after only moments. It smells because it contains Toluene one of the "big 3's" that most polish companies have removed from their lacquers and treatments. Because of the toluene Seche Vite simply does not work with Big 3 Free polishes. You will notice your polish shrinking on the edges as it dries, and that your manicures just don't last. As you get down to the second half of the bottle, the product starts to thicken considerably which makes it hard to spread onto your nails. You will notice as this happens that when you apply it onto your wet polish the polish will drag, wrinkle, and look streaky.

Just a noteYou MUST apply Seche Vite to wet polish. Wait no more than a couple minutes before you apply it or your polish will come off in a big sheet. You cannot use it to "refresh" the shine on a manicure you've been wearing for a couple days as that will make it come off in a sheet as well.

What kills it for me is the smell. I just can't get past it and that is why I will not purchase this product again. If you are looking for a good quick dry top coat that is shiny and gives you the glassy look that Seche Vite does, I recommend Poshe Super Fast Drying Top Coat. It has some of the problems Seche Vite does (must apply to wet polish, starts to thicken as you use up the bottle), but I do believe it is much, much better.

Honest reviews on Seche Vite Dry Fast Top Nail Coat, 0.5 Ounce

Hallelujah! I've tried dozens of shiny topcoats, quick dry topcoats and quick dry items you put on after topcoats and I have finally found the best product out there! (This is it.)

Apply right after your manicure, doesn't smear or smudge the polish. It actually does a great job filling in and concealing any minor flaws in the manicure as well. Dries nearly instantly to the touch, dries solid in minutes. Shiny, shiny, shiny! I cannot stop raving about this product and I am definitely trying their other nail products.

I just have never had much luck with any other fast dry topcoat no matter how long I'm careful afterwards. I'm a perfectionist and this stuff has finally made my manicure perfect. I'll have to update this as to how long my manicure lasted with it.

I can't hate this product even if I want to.

It's great and THEN some.

SO at first, I didn't want to buy it because of the review about the Toluene that was in it. But when I bought it and used it, and saw how PERFECT they made my manicures, I had to study more about toluene. I couldn't possibly stop using the nail polish because it was JUST PERFECT!

The bottle does have a warning on it about how SV "contains a chemical that has been known in the state of California to cause Birth defects or possible reproductive problems". WHEN I read that, I WAS LIKE OH NO!!! The warning didn't say whether Toluene was the bad chemical though. Hmmph?

Anyway, I used the nail polish again, and it was dry within seconds, shiny, perfect, no smudge, and just perfect.

I really love the nail polish, but the Toluene bothered me. I later learned that Toluene is taken in the body through inhalation.. so I somehow found a solution. I Use a facial mask when I paint my nails now. This product is all I have been waiting for. I love doing my own nails. it dries in seconds. I can take a shower after 15 minutes of applying, and no smudge or imprints on my nails.

I use my mask right now, and I will probably stop using this product because my mind is not totally at peace with it yet.. but it really is a great product.

Even though I have a problem with the product, I won't take away more than one star. Because it actually does what it says (and then some -like a birth defect maybe?)lol.. Ok I kid.. But u get my point right?

These are the best emery boards I have ever used. They are gentle enough not to tear my delicate fingernails, but still very effective. One side is for shaping and the other for finishing. I am never without them wherever I go.

once it dries fully it doesn't tend to rub off a lot but it takes like 24 hours for it to reach that level. its dry to the touch almost immediately but can rub off on clothes, shoes, your car seats, you kids clothes..lol, until like the next day. I wish it were more waterproof, and less transferable. i noticed that the cans i received lately in the mail have a bit of sheen added. I don't like it as much as the matteness it used to have. I just like the regular stuff, but even the shiny new formula is better than my pale legs and their many imperfections.

Reviews of Sally Hansen Gem Crush - Lady Luck

Sally Hansen Gem Crush - Lady Luck
Customer Ratings: 4 stars

I have now done two different manicures with Gem Crush, and am extremely happy with my purchase.

First off, the way the light bounces off all the glitter is absolutely stunning, and it catches my eye all day. People are constantly asking about my nail polish, so I've started carrying the bottle in my bag to show them. They're always amazed that it's only glitter!

Two coats is perfect (and they dry quick so it's a manicure in five minutes), and follow it up with a top coat to prevent chipping as this will chip easy on its own.

The only negative is that while it chips easy, it takes some elbow grease to get it off. Soak your nails in the acetone before rubbing, and that'll help tons!

I recommend this nail polish to anyone looking for a flashy new look!

Great color and sparkle for the toes. Ordered Sally Hansen because I wanted to avoid chipping. Painted the nails and applied a clear coat for strength but the polish still chipped right after a days worth of wear.

Sally Hansens Gem Crush polishes are the most GORGEOUS glitter polishes I've ever used. The glitter goes on THICK and is long wearing. Very flashy and fabulous. You'll get lots of compliments. The texture is somewhat gritty...I'd be impressed if you were able to get enough topcoats on it to smooth it out. I don't think it's possible. Doesn't matter though...it looks THAT good. So why won't I be using it often? HEED THIS WARNING: This stuff is a NIGHTMARE to get off. Think of the worst glitter nail polish you've ever removed and times that experience by 50. It's like trying to remove some sort of glitter super glue concoction. While you can certainly soak your nails in acetone for a bit to make the process less grueling, this isn't a great option if you have acrylic or other artificial nails. I must have spent about 45 minutes, half a bottle of remover, and 20 cotton pads getting this polish off. Glitter polishes are notoriously difficult to remove, but this is apparently the Emperor of all glitter polishes because my hands and cuticles were rubbed RAW by the time I was done. It was such a bad experience I had to knock two full stars off an otherwise fabulous product. In short: These polishes are IMPRESSIVE, but removing them could not have been more awful short of chopping off my fingertips.

Honest reviews on Sally Hansen Gem Crush - Lady Luck

I the purchase of this polish at Walmart and I have to say that it is simply stunning in light! I put this on for a night out with a friend to go to a restaurant and even the waitress was in love with the sparkle. This may be the only pink glitter that is not overly girly looking, or pastel looking, and is something that I can really see myself wearing on the regular. Definitely try this. Just make sure you have a nice top coat and base coat otherwise it will chip! To remove I would recommend pure acetone over normal polish remover because otherwise you will be scrubbing away at your nails until you die.
