I'm surprised by the reviews for this. I have been using it for a few weeks on top of my mani's and haven't had any problems, at least until today. I have used this on a variety of polishes w/o...

They have changed the formula for this product. It used to work great - I had an old bottle, but the new bottle I bought did the exact opposite of what a top coat is supposed to do. Within a day,...

In the past, I never had complaints about NYC products. I was delighted to purchase this top coat for only 98 cents. The application was a bit tricky at first, because this top coat dries VERY...

This, in combination with an NYC polish, turned my nails yellow! My nails were a normal healthy color before I started using this. I had found an NYC color that I really loved so I used it for...

I figured since I just needed a clear nail polish for days when my old pedicure really needed to go but didn't have the time to do another color, I'd just get the cheapest one. I've used NYC nail...

So I'm NOT the only one that experienced rampant chipping with this! Yeah, like everyone else said, this stuff chips like CRAZY. Within hours too. I did my nails with this and 5 or 6 hours later I...

When my manicure (ChG For Audrey) chipped at work today, I grabbed a bottle of this that we had around to try to stop it. The original offending nail was great and shiny, so I decided to do it on...

I was just wandering around Rite Aid in the nail polish section and I was short on cash and I was looking for a top coat and I found this. When I got home, I applied my manicure and then this top...

I love NYC Polishes because they're affordable and come in so many different colors. Nail polish is NOT worth more than $1 if you ask me, so I will be sticking to NYC since it is the only one that...

I bought this to paint my nails just plain shiny for prom, as I never use nail polish so I thought it would look nice. I applied 2 coats, and after it dried, all these cracks formed on my nails. I...

I was at Rite Aid and they were having a BOGO 1/2 off deal on all nail polishes. I was looking for some cheap thrills so I picked up a few Wet n Wild wild shine nail colors as well as this NYC...

I used this with my China Glaze nail polish and it chipped within a day, and even on bare nails it crackled. I wouldn't recommend this.

Being rather short on cash, I went to CVS and bought the cheapest topcoat I could find---this one. I am amazed at how well this works. I have a big problem with chipping because I am a runner and...

I picked this up because it was on sale so I thought I'd give it a try. I did a french tip and then put this on top at night and the next morning it was flaking off in huge chunks. Totally...

Boooo!!! Big thumbs down to this top coat. I wish I had read more reviews before I picked this up. I didn't really ask much of this top coat. I only wanted to use it on top of clear polish for...

Less than 2.00CAD for this bottle that keeps my polish in check. Toluene, formaldehyde, and DBP free! It brings complete shine to your nails with just a few swipes of it. Dries really quickly. ...
