I wouldn't buy this
The CND Vinylux Long Wear Top coat isn't anything special, I also used it with the long wear polish. Easy to apply, dries quickly, but chipped the very next day and all my other nails chipped within days. I'm glad I got it for free, cause I wouldn't buy it.
Nope.
I was so excited to be selected to try this polish. I'm hard on my hands, and a weekly polish with topcoat sounded great. Sadly, my nails started chipping same day. I tried twice, both times was disappointed. Easy to apply and quick drying, but maybe best for someone who has an office job.
I received this top coat from ChickAdvisor Premium as part of my membership. I am SO GLAD that I didn't pay for it...it's terrible! It brushed on nicely (nice, quality brush) and dried very quickly. That's all that I can say about this polish that is positive. I applied one coat on one hand and two coats on the other to see how it would hold up (no nail polish underneath). The polish looked very shiny. I painted my nails at night and then went to bed. When I woke up in the morning, they looked perfect still. By the time I had showered, put on my makeup, done the dishes, walked the dog and headed to work - the hand that had two coats of polish on it had almost completely come off - it was peeling off in strips! The hand with one coat was peeling also, but not as dramatically. The entire top half of all of my nails peeled off of both hands within 24 hours, leaving the nail beds shiny and the tops exposed. This is a super cheap, terrible quality top coat. The worst I have EVER used. Stick with $4 drug store Sally Hansen top coat - it is SO much better than this one! What a terrible product! I can't believe they advertise this product as weekly - it didn't even last 24 hours. I would NEVER purchase this product.
I received this to try for free from Chick Advisor, and I was glad it was free because I would not pay anything for this product. It was horrible. I painted my nails in the evening, and by the next night, 24 hours later, my nails were already chipping. I am a nail polish junkie and have no problem getting 4-5 days of chip-free nails from other polishes, and I followed the instructions for the polish/top coat duo to a T. And yet it chipped. I take very good care of my nails and hands, so I can only imagine what this polish and top coat would be like for someone who is hard on their nails. The only good thing about this top coat is it makes the polish look smooth and not weird. But that being said, as soon as the chips started and got quickly worse, the shininess of the top coat instantly looked cheap. You'd be better off not even using this top coat. I'm so disappointed in this product and do not recommend it.
