Review: Nice polish - There nice polish, goes on well and does chip
Review: Very good value - I've been using this topcoat for a few years and never feel the need to try a different one. It's quick-drying, leaves a really nice shiny finish and protects my nail polish. Not too thick so it doesn't create a bulky nail. I've also used it to adhere gems onto my nails and its always held very well. For the price I think its a really amazing topcoat.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: How often should you use the product?**
A: If you use it on its own , change it daily  , if you put colour over it it lasts till nail polish needs replacing, but its a good sealer of cracked and flaking nails, allowing them to grow.

**Q: Hi. Can you show me a copy of the instructions? Mine arrived without any**
A: Hi, I didn’t get any separate instructions, I used to buy it from boots until they stopped stocking it. Instruction on the bottle said apply one or two coats which works for me. I tend to do one coat which lasts about three days before I remove and reapply.  Hope that helps.

**Q: What is the 5 in 1?**
A: Nail strengthener, ridge infill, nail protection, prevents peeling, and a base coat. I love this stuff, stronger nails in 3 days!

**Q: When used as a top coat does it have a high shine?**
A: Yes it does. I sometimes use this as a Base coat & Rimmel Super Gel as a topcoat, which is even more shiny & long lasting.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Nice polish

There nice polish, goes on well and does chip

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Very good value
*by C***E on 29 March 2023*

I've been using this topcoat for a few years and never feel the need to try a different one. It's quick-drying, leaves a really nice shiny finish and protects my nail polish. Not too thick so it doesn't create a bulky nail. I've also used it to adhere gems onto my nails and its always held very well. For the price I think its a really amazing topcoat.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great Base And Top Coat
*by E***M on 5 January 2025*

I hadn't used nail polish in a very long time, probably years, so decided to treat myself with some basic colours. Obviously a top coat is preferred to protect the nail and colour applied, so I chose this Rimmel branded stuff. Used on its own, it quite decent and protects the nails for at least 48hours as long as I'm not doing anything vigorous with my hands; however by itself it doesnt seem quite chip resistant. Applied to a base colour though, is seems more chip resistant and protects the colour for days on end. This top coat is quite quick to dry which is a bonus especially if you're on the go. The shine is moderate and in general a couple of coats keeps the nail feeling sleek and nice. There is no stickiness after drying fully. Good value, would recommend and buy again :)
