essieNail Care, 8-Free Vegan, Speed Setter Top Coat, quick-dry nail polish, 0.46 fl oz

I decided to try this clear tint pink "Glow & Shine" from Essie as the pink armor polish I had been using is not available to ship to my location anymore per Amazon. I am not sure what that means as it is available from my local big box store in my city, but decided I would see what else I might like. I am very pleased with Essie as it is just the right pink color. I also think the brush is shaped just right to apply on polish onto nails. It is somewhat wide shaped and flat that goes over the nail very well and leaves a polish layer that goes on very smoothly. I may look into more Essie polish colors.

I wasn’t sure this product was going to work but OMG. Originally purchased in Nov of 2024 when I had DESTROYED my nails with a drill. They were so so thin, my fingers even hurt.I used this polish for months (because I was too scared to try any new gel or dip) and my nails are so strong. I’m sorry I don’t have pics but all I can say is that it does work; however, I also let my nails rest of no gels or dips or anything, just this one product.Now I always use it as a base coat before doing my dip powder .

If you are like me and always, without fail, mess up your nails before they are fully dry...then you NEED this top coat! It dries fully in under 5 min, and that is because of the high concentration of solvents in this product that helps it solidify quicker on the nails! I can easily paint my nails and then head out on the go without having to worry about scratching or chipping my freshly painted nails!

It’s a great option if you want a subtle, natural manicure without going to the salon.Pros:Classic Shade: Ballet Slippers is a timeless, soft pink that works for everyday wear, weddings, or professional settings.Complete Kit: Comes with everything you need—base coat, color, and top coat—for a polished, long-lasting finish.Smooth Application: Goes on even and streak-free, especially with the wide brush.Quick Dry Time: Dries faster than many other polishes I’ve used—great for busy mornings.Long-Lasting: With the full kit, my nails stayed chip-free for about a week.Cons:Takes 2–3 Coats for Opacity: The color is sheer, so you may need multiple layers to get the look you want.Small Bottles: Great for trying the kit, but smaller than standard Essie polish sizes.Not for Bold Color Lovers: If you want bright or bold, this kit leans very neutral and soft.Final Thoughts:If you're going for a natural, polished look that’s classy and easy to apply at home, this kit is a great pick. Perfect for a minimalist manicure that still feels put-together.Highly recommend if you like soft, clean nails without the fuss.

Just buy it! I love this don’t bother with OPI!This polish I purchased over a year ago and it is stillStrong is not sticky is great better than most high-end nail polishes. I would 1000% recommend !

My favorite top coat. I have been using this for years and it is amazing. My manicure lasts much longer than normal and it is super shiny which I love. I highly recommend!

I wear acrylic nails and they have RUINED my natural nails. They were weak, brittle, splitting, wouldn't grow. I wanted to stop wearing the acrylic nails to help my nails recover but my nails were a mess. I bought this based on the positive reviews, hoping for the best but not expecting much. I was very positively surprised. This stuff works great! My nails are stronger, way less brittle and they have started growing! No more splitting! In the beginning, i wore 2 coats of it under my acrylic nails and that actually protected them and my nails grew and hardened under them. I am very happy with this product!! My only con would be I don't love the smell, but other than that it's great. It evens dries pretty quickly!

Goes on well but doesn't last
