I wanted it to be better!!

I really wanted this to be awesome but honestly when I do a side by side of one hand without it and one hand with it, there’s not a huge difference. I will never buy it again.

Tacky

I loved Sally Hansen Gel Top Coat when I first bought it and used it a few times. It suddenly got tacky and sticky in the bottle and I had to throw it out. It just wouldn't dry.

Salon-nail look without salon-nail staying power

This product is great for girls that want their at-home mani to go a little farther without the fuss. You gel nails without the need for a UV light. This top coat is easy to apply and takes as long to dry as your average nail polish.

You definitely get the gel nail vibe, the only thing you don't get is as much of the staying power. I notice my nails start to lift after about a week whereas salon gel last longer. Don't get me wrong, when comparing this to regular polish, this is miles ahead in terms of being chip-free and longer lasting.

I recommend going eyes-open and realizing you likely won't get the same result at home as you would in a salon..unless perhaps you did buy your own UV light.
