This Dries

I'm a basic chick who doesn't normally have the full set for manicures however BR has changed thst for the better. Top coat arrrgh who needs it right? Wrong. I snatched this up in the beauty vault what another win win purchase. A black incased bottle with a white tipped handle. Almost tricking you into thinking it's a black polish. This is a gel effect top coat that doesn't need any lamps to cure. Wow right? The brush is a firm plastic wide tip that's not such a bristle type rather a flat tipped applicator that easily applies the coat onto the nails in one go. This brush type is so user friendly it also picks up alot of product so less is more. Once you apply this to your final coat of colour it works it's wonders immediately & your polish is dry in super fast time. So effective & efficient, such a good first time impression for someone who's never owned or personally used a top coat. I'll always go back to this topcoat from now on because of the lasting impression it's given me. The fact the less is more indicates how much use this wee bottle of magic has in it.

This prevents any chipping all I found is the colour peels of in one piece or snaps to peel of unevenly still this can all be done without any use of polish remover, probably not good practice. I did it though without any chipping effects. I believe the purchase of this has seen the days of visiting the local nail bar put on hold of it's pro performance.

Tips: When dispensing brush wipe of excess then apply in thin small amounts because the brush can apply polish easily. Waste no want not.

Awesome Top Coat

I have found this to be a really good top coat on both the miracle gel nail polish as well as my regular nail polish. It increased my regular nail polish from like 2 days wear to closer to a week without chipping to pieces which is awesome!! I really like the brush it comes with as well its rounded and quite dense and I found it really easy to get a clean aplication. Overall it's a great top coat I will happily use again

Great Top Coat

I use this for my SH gel range but also my other nail polishes as I love the shine and it makes my polish last a couple of days longer.

My Top Top Coat

That is not a typo. The brush on this is awesome, three strokes and you're done. I usually use two coats of this however because I like a really glossy top coat and sometimes I feel the one coat just doesn't cut it.

My only real gripe is that even if your miracle gel colour coats are dry, this will pick up the colour again, so say if I've done a metallic feature nail with a plain colour on the rest and use the top coat on the metallic first, it will transfer bits of metallic to the other nails. I just work around this and do metallic nails last.

Lasts ages and ages. And works nicely with other polishes too.

Oooh mixed reviews- your is situated between two not so good ones! Might have to try it for myself to determine its greatness! Good that you can use it with other polishes too.

Great product

I love this product, it is my favourite topcoat and use it over nail polishes that are gel. Its nice, shiny and looks really good as it brightens all colours. Definitely a great product.

Tips: Don't use too much on the brush at once and use it to seal the edge of the nail to make it last longer

Sally Hansen miracle gel top coat

I am a massive fan of this product. I abuse my nails daily and this product seals my nail polish in place. Leaves a beautiful glossy look and dries super fast no waiting around and chipping level is minimal. I would recommend this product to anyone wanting a UV light free gel nail finish.

Tips: When you first purchase check brush condition for occasional lose hairs. Don't feel you have to pour it on a level coat is all it needs and take it just over your tips to seal the nail.

gel top coat

i was looking good top coat and that time i saw good reviews regards of this product. so i bought it from farmers when they have some special on sally hansen products. i spent 10$ or 12$ couldn't remember properly.

i love the packaging and how looks the bottle even. nailpolish brush is also nice and wide which good. i swipe twice on my nails and i am done. product claim top coat gives you nice shiny nail, it does pretty much but not long last. after two days i couldn't see any shine on my nail. very disappointment. and i also notice cracks on top coat after couple of days which looks weird.

when i use it own, its damage my nail even.sometime i use top coat for base coat but you can't do with this product. pretty average top coat for me. i know it does provide pretty shine on nail but for couple of days.

i use couple of time and then after i am not reach that product any more so i didn't like it.

What did I do wrong ?

I'm a long time gel manicure lover, spend my money with my fav nail techs but thought I'd heard such great things this was worth trying. Loves: price, colour selection, oacgaing, drying time, application No so much loves: just didn't last at all. I tried googling it, re do s , different ways of applying but I just couldn't make it work.

Tips: Yes better than your standard top coat but just not the same by country mile if you used to a pro job

shine on

This top coat comes in a black sally Hansen polish bottle with the band around the lid.

I like the bottles and brushes in the sally Hansen range as they are a nice shape and the brush is flat which makes the application easier.

The top coat gave my nails a fantastic gloss that I i loved.

Once my nails were polished and had the top coat on they looked fantastic I had really high hopes they looked great.

However I was really disappointed that my polished nails only lasted 4 days before they started chipping which was disappointed from a miracle gel.

Ideal for Nail Painting Dummies

Sally Hansen is a pretty solid brand for good quality nail products so I was pretty confident when I picked up this little gem. Like many people, I have an impatient streak which becomes my downfall when attempting to paint my own nails. I also tend to be quite rough on my hands which often means new manicures are promptly ruined and removed the next day. This top coat dries much faster than most others I've tried in the past, and once it is dry it is pretty solid. I can then go about my day without the fear of a drastic nail chip. The slightly thicker formula also makes it easier to "wrap the tip" and seal in the paint so everything lasts longer. This product does also have a few downfalls. I have found that it thickens up quite quickly. I have had it for about 2 months and I am half way through the bottle but the paint is now very thick which often makes it difficult to use the perfect amount. I have also found that though this polish does not chip easily, it can be quite susceptible to peeling.

Tips: I always add 2 thin coats which dry faster and ensure your nail and manicure is extra strong!
