Sally Hansen Miracle Gel™, Color Grip Primer and Base Coat, Long Lasting, Gel-Like Formula, No UV Lamp Needed, Clear Nail Polish

The Sally Hansen Gel Top Coat is a game-changer for at-home manicures. It delivers a glossy, salon-quality finish that extends the life of your nail color without the need for a UV lamp. The formula dries quickly and adds a durable, chip-resistant layer that helps polish last up to a week. It’s easy to apply with the wide brush, and the shine really makes colors pop. For the price and convenience, it's a reliable choice for anyone looking to upgrade their DIY nail routine.

I had purchased a bottle of the base coat from this brand on clearance at a local drugstore (the reason my nails are pink in the photo). I tried just using the pink polish without the suggested "step 2" top coat...and it was almost immediately chipping and scratching off...worse than any other polish I have tried...but despite that issue, I could only remove that stuff with straight up acetone polish remover, the gentle kind doesn't touch it.I decided to invest in this top coat, because I figured I need it to get any wear out of the base coat polish...and also that I could use it as top coat for other types of polish, and even use it to accent crafts projects!! Win-win.This polish might be the most beautiful nail polish I have ever seen! Yes, there's thousands of contenders, true, but there's just something so ethereal and beautiful about this polish in the bottle--photos don't do it justice. I think it would actually look better with a cooler color like blue or green for the base coat...but I had put it on over the pink one. It does look unique and quite pretty in person. Also, I painted my nails several days ago and have been clearing out an estate, moving furniture, boxes, books etc and painting, with very very minimal wear! No need for a touch up which is amazing!! I did apply 2 or 3 coats of both the base and this top coat. No UV curing needed. It dried reasonably fast too.I highly highly recommend this polish. On the nails, it looks like a very fine chartreuse shimmer, slight chameleon effect. I don't personally think it looks the same as UV cured gel polish. It still looks very good and I don't hesitate to recommend it. It's worth the price for sure! Also, I have read other reviews, not sure if it was for this top coat or a different one from this line complaining that nail polish remover won't cut this. Based on my experience with the base coat alone, you might need straight acetone to remove it, but I'm not sure, just saying this because one brand of polish remover I tried didn't work at all. I am very impressed with the performance of this product, and will probably buy more from this line in the future!

Love the top coat. Goes on easy and long wearing (about 7 days) Its a gel but does not require a lamp.Great alternative

I love this nail polish. It’s a beautiful topcoat makes some really nice sparkles and it’s very durable. Make sure manicure last a lot longer! I couldn’t be happier with this product.

Nice light white. Held up well. Unfortunately for me, I'm allergic to Gel as I found out.

I'm always on the hunt for a top coat to help keep my Lily & Fox nail wraps looking their best for a long as possible. They look fantastic after 14 days! I can be tough on my nails, accidentally breaking when I get to my perfect length. This polish dried quickly and helps my nails feel strong. No chips, no breaks. My new go-to.

I do not want gel nails applied they just ruined my nails. And my problem was keeping the Polish on for a decent amount of time. Well Sally Hansen's miracle gel number two top coat is fabulous and it's keeping my nails pretty for a week and a half. That's me everyone is different but my hands are in water all the time and they still stay strong and beautiful. Pretty durable and actually makes the Polish stand out...jillj

So so. Looks nice but does not last long (maybe a couple days before it starts chipping)
