As advertised!!! But if you’re trying to use it over the soft gel builder, it doesn’t work.

This is a great topcoat. Definitely high shine and scratch resistant as advertised.

However: lately (out of laziness) I’ve been doing a lot of clear gel manicures without color, and found that if I apply this topcoat over the new Aprés soft gel builder, especially if I don’t first wipe after curing the builder, the topcoat doesn’t go on smoothly/separates a bit. I’ve been working around this by just buffing the surface where the bubbles happen and applying a second topcoat over it. Then it’s fine!

Also noticed this glows white under UV, which means in the sun it have a slight lavender hue. Doesn’t bother me but something to note.

top gelcoat x

I previously rated this 3 stars but I've found a better way to use the topcoat. What works for me is wiping down the nails with alcohol before applying the top coat (even this brand's gel polishes). If you wipe them down first, you won't get the same separation issues.

Top Gel Coat X

This top coat is shiny and makes my nails feel strong but the pitting/separation issues within the top coat are annoying to deal with. I pretty much exclusively use Apres products, but I'm looking for a better top coat that hopefully doesn't have these separation issues.

Topcoat

Stays sticky even after fully cured and being told it was a non-wipe. Pretty disappointed and was looking for a better topcoat but this one isn't it.
