Birchbox Breakdown

Just like a sweep of powder keeps your makeup in place and a spritz of hairspray helps an updo last until the end of the party, we count on our top coats to keep our nails in tip-top shape for days. The knockout shine they bring to the table doesn’t hurt, either. This German brand’s rapid-set formula helps us get out the door faster.

How it Works

The quick-dry formula means you can get on with your day in just a few minutes. Because really, who has time to sit around waiting for nail polish to dry? The high-gloss protection dries to a hard surface to keep chips, scratches, and those pesky bed sheet indentations at bay.

How to Use

Apply one to two coats after polishing your nails. When creating nail art designs like polka dots or stripes, avoid smears by allowing the colors to dry completely before adding a top coat.

Best I've used

I'm very impressed with this top coat. I before my polish was fully dry and it was easy to apply and dried very quickly. It has a beautiful shine that lasts. I'm going on 5 days without a single chip and my mani/pedi looks like it was just done this morning. Love!

Not that amazing, but fast drying!

This product is fairly fast to set, but it didn't last that long on my nails--espeically on the ends of the nail, you could see it had chipped off quite a bit only after a day and a half.

Super shiny

I'd been using a cheap drug store base/top coat, but I had some points and decided to get this top coat. The difference is amazing. I don't get those little bubbles in my polish anymore. It helps seal the nail polish and even seems to dry it a bit faster, but without the shrinkage of quick dry top coats. I can't stop looking at my nails when I use this!

Salon Status

I prefer to do my own nails as oppose to paying fortunes at a nail salon. The top coat leave a beautiful shine and my nail polish laster a couple days longer than usual.

Chips everywhere

I had read that matte polish chips quickly. But, I wasn't expecting that after one day it looked like my manicure was over a week old. At least a third of the polish was chipped off. It is definitely not worth the price as I never plan to use it again. At least it dries fast?
