This is, hands down, my favourite top coat.Positives:- super glossy- has that same 'plumping' effect as a gel topcoat, which makes anything sparkly look INCREDIBLE- lasts for ages. My nails reject polish-- it literally peels off in one piece (without using a peely base!) after a couple days no matter what base I use. But if I make sure to seal around the edges and tip with this, it lasts for at least a week. And doing the same thing on people with less oily nail beds, it's lasted up to 18 days with one or two minor (accident-inflicted) chips. Which is WILD (I am also using orly's bonder base as well on myself and my friends so it's not JUST that I'm sealing with topcoat, but it plays a big part!).- it's cheap! Compared to most brands' own quick-dry topcoat (I own them from a bunch of different brands including holo Taco & moon at) it's literally half the price. And while Holo Taco's is my second favourite, seche vite is still the best.- it dries hard SUPER FAST. I have very little patience and am very forgetful, so not having to wait too long before I can use my hands without ruining my nails is very important.Negatives:- it dries hard SUPER FAST. it will start to dry on the brush immediately. If you aren't fast enough it can be a bit goopy and difficult to spread over the whole nail, so it takes a bit of getting used to. Other quick-dry topcoats take a bit longer, and so give you slightly more working time- you WILL need to buy a nail polish thinner, seche do have their own and it works great (on all polishes, not just this one). This is because as soon as you open the bottle it is exposed to air, which starts the chemical reaction which causes it to harden. As you use more of the polish, there will be more air in the bottle, and it will start to get thick and goopy. Luckily just a couple drops of polish thinner (and some shaking) will restore it! And a bottle of nail polish thinner will last you YEARS.- the opaque bottle. I know brands do this to try and mimick the look of gel polishes but a) it's confusing to consumers, and b) you can't see how much polish is left in the bottle.Overall I absolutely adore this topcoat and highly recommend it IF you're fairly quick at putting a top coat on!

The best top coat I’ve used. I’m a professional, so I use this a lot.

I really like the seche vite base cost and their standard top coat is amazing so I thought id try the gel effect one but I was disappointed. It doesn’t apply very well and is a bit thick and gloopy. I didn’t find it lasted very well either. I’ll be sticking to the standard one in future.

Works really well with a fantastic glossy top coat that dries quickly. Will definitely buy again.

Perfect for finishing off your manicure. Dries really quick and helps to stop any varnish chips appearingI always use this after painting my nails.
