SecheVite Professional Refill Kit, High-Gloss Clear Top Coat for Natural Nails, Artificial Gels Fiberglass Acrylic Extensions, Quick-Dry Long-Lasting Shine, 1 Kit

This is such a fantastic top coat!!! It's easy to apply and fast-drying, drying down to a shiny finish that lasts. I applied a haphazard coat the first time, but a day later I did a second coat of the Seche top coat and it bonded very well to the day-old polish and gave the whole manicure a glossy, gel-like shine! There are very few bubbles in this formula, and it's the perfect top coat for anyone on the go who can't wait for a normal manicure to cure!!!

This topcoat really is the best. It makes my mediocre painting skills look professional. It spreads evenly, dries fast and gives a glossy shine. It protects paint from chipping. Best top coat I have used.

I purchased this Seche Vite top coat from amazon about two - three months ago. I wanted to use it for awhile to give the best review possible.For starters. I used to have such problems with nail polish. I could literally paint my nails and sit for 30+ minutes and then THREE-FOUR HOURS later go to bed and wake up with sheet marks/imprints all over the place. Being a recovering perfectionist, it drove me nuts to spend all that time painting my nails to have it destroyed by smudges and nicks and you name it, even hours later. Who has that many hours to be careful with your nails? I constantly was touching something that destroyed my nails.This product truly fixes that problem. Within 15 minutes (sometimes less!) of painting my nails, it's dry and I can touch it and not worry. I can even go digging around in my purse. It looks pretty flawless with this glassy top coat. I no longer get sheet marks. I've changed my nail polish about every week and I'm able to do that because I can get it done in 20-30 minutes total with base coat, color coat, and this top coat without taking such a huge chunk of time.Now you do have to be realistic with yourself. If you impale a nail on something hard and metallic after painting it or something it still can leave some imprint, and showering or having your nails in hot water soon after will soften the polish and leave you vulnerable to dents and nicks. But that aside, you really can do just about anything without worrying too much within 15 minutes and by 20-30 you should be pretty solid for typically manicure destroying tasks (even dishes). Again be realistic, thin coats will dry better. If you gob on a ton of nail polish and a ton of the top coat it will take longer to set and you might goof them up and be disappointed.It holds up pretty well for a good week possibly more. And let me tell you my nails go through hell. I work retail and I'm constantly taking security sensor tags with pointy pins off clothing and grabbing handfuls of plastic sensors at night to put them away into our backstock. We also have hangers with metal clips (like for pants, skirts, etc) and again I have to go digging around in bins of those and am constantly banging and scratching up my nails. The top coat may get a little scratched on the surface but I haven't had ANY major chips or nicks and it's held up really well. One day I even felt my nails were starting to look scratched up and a customer complimented how great and shiny my nails looked (go figure). I've also had people ask me if I got one of those gel manicures professionally done! Nope, all this great little product. When I have to change it at the end of the week it's because of growout or because it's pulled away a little from the tips of my nails.One odd thing is that I have noticed by then end of one week, the nailpolish looks a tiny bit darker than when I first painted them so there might be an issue with discoloration. I also recommend making sure you get the sides of your nails. This product is thick and you'll have a visible ridge if you didn't quite cover the whole nail. It does set pretty quickly too so there is a little bit of an art to putting on enough so that you can cover the nail before it sets without globbing on so much that it won't dry, but I got the hang of it pretty quickly. There is also a slight chemically smell to the product but I'm pretty sensitive to smell and it doesn't bother me because it fades quickly.I remember reading reviews about it getting overly thick, and I did purchase the restoring drops from seche vite but so far I haven't needed to use them. So it doesn't seem as big of an issue as some reviews would suggest.Overall the product is amazing and gives you flawless looking nails that and usable within such a short period of time. I have almost forgotten the days of sheet marks and horrible smudges and I get compliments all the time and I keep recommending it to all my friends. I can't believe people don't know about this top coat, I refuse to paint my nails without it now! It's really fantastic and makes at home manicures very accessible.

I have been reading about this brand of topcoat for so long now. I do not know why I never bought it until recently. I think maybe the price had something to do with it. After all I thought it was just clear nail polish and I can get that at the dollar store.Am I glad that I finally took the plunge and bought a bottle.I am not what they call someone who spends a lot of time on "cuticle care" (Pitch Perfect reference *high5*) I keep my nail shorts because they tend to chip & break easily if I do not. I love nail polish colors, God knows I have plenty of them.Just recently I got my first "gel mani", boy, was I ever impressed. It was awesome. The color I chose was a beautiful green color that resembled something you'd see on a tropical island, it was so shiny and strong. I went swimming, playing in the sand, playing in the ocean, doing all kinds of outdoorsy stuff on my vacation, and not one chip was to be seen.In fact it was not until the 12th or 13th day that I noticed the color was coming off from the bottom up, noticed the top down. Which is what I like.Back to SECHE VITE DRY FAST TOP COAT: when I am not doing a gel manicure (which is always) I like my normal polish manicure (with a little bit of nail art on ring fingers to make me feel pretty) to last as long as humanly possible.Not only does this topcoat make my polish last days longer, it also makes my nails incredibly shiny, and it is helping them to grow stronger and longer.I am using a vitamin filled base coat to help my nails grow strong (Orly), I use a coat of this on top of the base coat, then I put my color , then I use this as my topcoat/quick dry, and I let it dry for about 20 minutes before I do anything.I have found that quick dry topcoats, quick dry sprays and drops, etc. Are not really quick dry at all. In fact when you try to use your nails too quickly after applying the quick dry topcoat, you will find smudges/ridges, and your nails become messy. I believe it helps the polish to dry a couple of minutes faster, but not immediately. The quick dry labeling lulls you into a false sense of security. I am sure many of us out there have used a quick dry product only to end up having to redo our nails.To wrap it up I think that this product is outstanding. I can see what all of the hype is about, and I'm still not sure whether it is worth the price, but I believe it is money well spent, for me anyways.I found that this product has done what it says it will do. Except for the quick dry thing. I believe it dries nails quicker, but not the quickest. Or completely.I like using this polish on top of my base coat. There are times when I want to go polish free, but I like to use the vitamin enriched base coat to strengthen and lengthen my brittle nails. This topcoat not only enhances the vitamin base coat it also adds a beautiful shine.

Always my go yo for a quick dry top coat. Hard shine that lasts.

Got this for the first time after it being recommended by a friend. I was a little apprehensive ordering nail polish off Amazon. I normally order it off sites directly. This really did dry fast and with a really nice shine. It feels nice and strong.The only thing I did not like is that it did have a very strong smell, it smelled more than normal nail polishes ,which I was not expecting.

dries fast. It is strong smelling but worth it.

I swear by this stuff. Dries quickly and is very shiny. I can get my nails to last almost a week without chipping.
