OPI Top Coat Review

I like to use a nice polish on my nails but un until I started applying this OPI top coat I found I needed to re apply polish every one to two days which was so annoying.This top coat just seals the deal for me as it not only gives a lovely glossy finish it protects the coloured polish under the top coat and my polisk then looks great for several days.This is so easy to apply and drys quickly and just gives that professional finish. I really love this product.

I enjoy using this top coat, has the standard OPI brush which is easy to use and covers a decent area with each brush. Nails look glossy and polish lasts longer with less chipping

I was given a selection of colours from Opi range for my birthday from my sisters as well as the base coat.

When using this top coat it really increases the life of the nail polish. I had less chipping and a shiny nail for 6 days which is pretty awesome!

OPI is my favourite brand when it comes to nail polish, so naturally I was going to get a top coat from the brand. The top coat is clear and is contained in 15ml glass bottles, which are used for their nail polish as well. I bought this at Farmers as I was lucky to have earned a beauty voucher with my club points.

After two coats of nail polish had dried on my nails, I applied just a thin layer of top coat over it. It gave it a nice shine and helped the nail polish last long. I prefer a thin layer as it dries faster. The quality is great as it makes the nail polish last few days before it starts to chip away.

It’s a bit expensive for a small bottle, but I don’t often wear nail polish, so my bottle is still almost full even though I bought it over a year ago. This is perfect for a nail fanatic as a final touch for the nails.

My friend left me this nail polish when she went overseas (I had been using another clear topcoat from another brand for years, convinced that I should use my budget with OPI on their awesome colours) — oh my goodness, I wished I bought this way earlier. Usually my names start chipping my day 3, it's been day 7 and the edges still look clean as! As a top coat it adds a shiny sheen to your colours, and does not take very long to dry. Definitely going to repurchase when this runs out!

This is one of my favourite top coats to use. I NEVER wear nail polish without a top coat. Applying this top coat over any nail polish extends the duration of the polish and I find it lasts at least 5 days before chipping. Usually wear this top coat over my Sally Hansen, OPI and only nail polishes as they are the brands that I tend to wear the most. This top coat keeps my nails looking fresh for the full week.

I also love how much shine this top coat adds to my nail polish. The gloss is insane. It adds so much shine that I can see my reflection. It will turn any cheap or dull polish underneath into looking like a high quality salon manicure.

I get compliments from my friends thinking that I got my nails done at a salon or that it's gel polish. Nope, just regular polish which I applied myself! It gives me salon quality nails for less than half the price, bonus! OPI polishes are quite expensive, but in my opinion they are definitely worth it as the bottles are quite big and will last you ages. It is definitely worth taking the extra time to apply a top coat (you do have to set aside time to paint your nails and I do often get impatient especially having to wait for each coat to dry), but the top coat makes your polish last a lot longer.

This polish comes in the typical OPI bottle, a rounded glass v shaped cylinder. I like how the OPI brushes are nice and big as it enables it to pick up a decent amount of polish preventing you from having to dip the brush back in the bottle. The brush is flat which makes it easy to apply the polish in three even strokes (or one for my pinky).

The formula is really nice and smooth to apply, even if the polish underneath is not quite smooth, the top coat always dries as a smooth layer.

This top coat has become a regular I put over any nail polish I wear and I will definitely be repurchasing this when I run out. I would highly recommend investing in this top coat as it makes even the cheapest low quality nail polish look like a salon manicure.

I am a firm believer in the need for a top coat! I always love a good top coat, one that adds lots of gloss and shine to finish off my nails. Owning several OPI nail polishes and loving them, I had high expectations. The packaging is the usual classic shaped bottle and handle. It's easy to grip and no trouble to open and close tightly. While I like the grip of the brush, I wish the brush itself would be tapered and flatter so that it was easier to apply the polish. Nevertheless, I get a good amount of polish. It glides on nice and smoothly and I only need about 2 or 3 strokes to cover my whole nail and I could easily control the brush. The finish is quite glossy, however it doesn't last this glossy for that long, maybe about 3 or 4 days at the most. After that, my polish usually begins to chip or fade away at the tips. This is quite disappointing, as I thought it would be much better! I feel like I could get a cheaper top coat that is either on par or better than this. I will continue to use it, however I am on the lookout for a new top coat!

I bought this as I have a big collection of OPI polishes and figured that they would be best matched with an OPI top coat.

This is like any other OPI polishes with the classic shaped bottle and the textured handle which helps application. While not being flat, the brush is easy to use and covers my small nails in a few strokes. The polish goes on easily, but if your manicure has not dried completely it can pick up some of the residual colour on the brush which is annoying.

I apply this after my colour has fully set and if I can, repapply the top coat every few days. It does extend the life of a manicure but is not the shiniest top coat I have tried.
