    This is amazing! I am almost fnished with my bottle, and this has to be the first nail product I manage to actually go thru entirely. It is a phenomenal product! It helps dry nail polish so much faster. It used to take me hours to get a 2 coat nail polish set completely, but when I apply Seche Vite on damp polish it is set, completely , within minutes. What a time saver! It also helps prolong wear of my polish, one week with minimal chipping, which is a lot for me. Also it gives my nails this glossy wonderful finish, everybody thinks I have fake nails on. It makes them look incredibly nice and feel incredibly strong.
    This is my HG nail product. I cannot imagine how I have gotten by without this so far.

    This is the top coat I am currently using and quite loving it! It gives that high glossy finish, smooth to the touch and def. does help set the polish faster then if I use other top coats or no top coat at all. Haven't found it helps a ton with chipping issues (still get chips like usual).

    Only negative about this is the smell. It's def. more chemical ridden then other polishes but I assume its because of it that it works so well... lol. Just use in a ventilated space and you should be fine.

    I've been reading so much about this on blogs so I had to see what all the hype was about. I went to Sally's Beauty Supply to get it, I didn't realize it was gonna be around $10 but whatever it ended up being totally worth it! I couldnt believe how quick it dried, literally my nails were dry to touch in less than a minute. Not to mention the extra shiny gloss finish it gives your manicure. I'm in love! It makes your nails almost look like glass or like they were professionally done. I've had it on my nails for 4 days now and it still looks as good as it did the first day.

    I am very tough on my nails between doing dishes sans gloves, cooking and food prep, going to the gym, etc. Seche vite has saved my manicure countless times, keeping my polish on five days longer than usual! I love how it dries my nails fast and gives a nice thick top coat. I used it with nail appliques (like Sally Hensen Salon Strips) and they lasted forever! A must-have product.

    I love this top coat! It honestly dries very quickly and leaves your nails shiny for days!
    One tip though, wait a couple of minutes before applying top coat to your freshly painted nails. The residue from your polish to your top coat can thicken your bottle and make it all mucky.

    The best fast dry top coat I've tried!

    I used to be an Essie To Dry For gal, then I tried a Sally Hansen top coat that is supposed to be similar to Seche, but I found it reacts with some polishes and causes pulling and puckering (not happy when it does that on my freshly painted nails!) So I finally just got the real deal. I am so happy I did! It is a thicker top coat and it really seals and protects well. It is by far the best top coat for chip prone nails (mine!) and it gives the best looking glossy shine to any nail polish. The only downside, is that it can get really thick and goopy after a while, so you'll need the restoring solution to get the most out of your bottle.

    I didn't realize how much I adore this product until it started getting too goopy to use and I went without top coat for a bit. I apparently cannot sit still for the required time it takes for polish to dry without Seche Vite. I even contemplated buying drip dry drops until my boyfriend was like "For $10, no way, what makes them work anyways?" and looking at the ingredients it was some silicons and jojoba oil. So I came home and finally broke down and bought some Seche Restore to revitalize my shelved goopy Seche Vite.

    I wanted to try other quick dry top coats like Poshe or Out the Door because they are 3Free but every comparison or review I've read say that if you love Seche Vite and it works great for you (ie. no shrinkage, pulling, etc.) then nothing will compare. I plunked down the $10 I was gonna waste on drip dry drops on Seche Restore and I'm sure that it will be a great investment.

    It's been a long few months without my beloved Seche Vite, I tried China Glaze Patent Leather Top Coat which I absolutely hate (you can read my review) and I've ruined many a manicure by going on about my day too soon after painting my nails. I even went so far as to forgoing nail polish entirely until I realized I was biting my nails again.

    This is definitely a top coat I will repurchase.

    Fantastic! Best top coat I've ever used! And I have a few different ones in my collection! It dries super glossy and very fast! My toe colours last for almost two weeks. I get tired of the colour before the top coat lets it chip or wear off.
    This top coat is worth the extra money.

    I've been using this for several years since some nail fanatics let me in on this little secret... it's seriously one of the best top coats that money can buy!

    It's a bit pricier than other brands but trust me, you won't regret it. It really does the job well - dries to a beautiful streak free and fabulously glossy finish! Nails dry quite quickly - I find it works best when my second coat of color is just about dry when I apply this.

    I haven't used another brand since I've been converted to Seche Vite!

    This nail top coat is by far the best money can buy in this product type. The product is meant to be applied over top of still wet nail colour, and it cannot be used on it's own as it will not ahere to unpainted nails. The product goes on thick and glossy and like it promises, dries very quickly.

    I always use OPI coloured nail polish and with this product as a top coat, my manicure easily lasts 10 days. The tips of the nails never chip at all. The only reason to repaint your nails after 10 days is due to nail growth and the worn areas appear at the cuticle area of the nail. I don't know of any other product that can give you a 10 day manicure.

    Since I have been using Seche Vite, I have rarely had my nails break as the thick coating seems to add a layer of strength to my nails. I recommend looking up the entire line from this compnay on their website: www.seche.com.
