Tips & Tricks
Achieve intense shine with this crystal clear formula, by allowing all layers of polish to dry below the top coat. 2-4 minutes or less and your nails will be dry, durable, long lasting with days of no tip wear, chipping!
Apply Glisten & Glow top coat in a thin layer layer floating it over the top of the polish below, go back in with a 2nd coat to smooth and seal glitter or textured polishes. Protect your nail art/stamping/watermarbles with Glisten & Glow top coat, allow all that beauty below to dry and then float on top a nice bead of topcoat. Seal the tips, side walls and just past the coloured polish line near your cuticle to prevent any shrinkage. Want to intensify your holographic polishes? Add a coat of Glisten & Glow top coat!
Glisten & Glow top coat has an even consistency throughout the whole bottle, but if yours does get a little thick or gloppy just add a few drops of Restore + Thin and roll between your hands. Don’t worry, it’s just restoring some of the solvents that are already in it, that have evaporated since it has been opened.
Application Guide
If you don’t allow for full dry time, you could experience bubbling (often the biggest problem polish lovers have is that they don’t allow the base coat to dry long enough), as always use polishes in a well-ventilated area.

My favourite top coat at the moment and exactly what you need for top coat hungry polishes that need a bit extra.

This polish is indeed super shiny! I’ve even seen clouds reflected on my nails because of it. It is indeed quick drying (great for stopping sheet-marks when you do your nails in the evening) and I like the fact that it doesn’t smear my stamping. This is my go-to topcoat.

I use this topcoat whenever I polish my nails in the evening because I love it’s fast dry time. I also love that I have never had any shrinkage with this. It is excellent for use over glitters, I like to use two coats over the heavier glitters/microglitters. It dries super solid and does not wear down easily making my mani last as long as I like to wear it.

Definitely fast drying. It does have a very strong smell though! I recommend using in a well ventilated area and getting it done fast!

Love this topcoat, it’s changed my nail game. Great shine & durability. My workmates think I get gel nails done every week as this makes my manis look so professional. This is my holy grail topcoat.

It is a very shiny top coat. Which I love. It can be/feel a bit thick. But it absolutely lengthens my wear time by days! (I have very brittle nails). It dries more quickly than other promised ‘quick drying’ top coats, and has a shine that can’t be defeated.

I love this! It’s super shiny, quick to dry, and doesn’t cause shrinkage. However, the smell is quite strong.

A lovely, easy top coat for this nail beginner

So so quick to dry! I love that I don’t need to sit with my hands flat on the table for ages waiting for my top coat to dry anymore. Also its very shiny! :)

This is better than seche vite in my opinion! Doesn’t shrink and is super shiny

Really excellent topcoat, my only complaint is that the bottle tends to get super thick and goopy about halfway through although this can be remedied with some thinner. Overall one of my top 5 indie topcoats.

I’ve tried many topcoats (so, so very many..) and this is hands down my favourite. It is really effective over glitter (chunky glitters sometimes need 2 coats to smooth out, but no biggie). It is incredibly shiny and is also fast drying. On top of that I get longer wear than I have with previous top coats I’ve used. The smell of the topcoat is quite strong during application, but it’s fine once it’s dry.
Love. It.

Wonât be using this one because it contains toluene and I was not aware of this before I made purchase. And yes I checked description but it was not listed in ingredients then.

Really nice, thick top coat. I prefer cirque colours looking glass top coat for its reflective qualities, but this is another solid choice.
CL (verified owner) –
Dries extremely fast, hard and glossy! I am very much a beginner and this is super easy to use which I appreciate. There is the tiiiiniest bit of tip shrinkage for me with certain polishes on my short nails, but when I can wrap the tips it isn’t an issue at all.
It does have that distinctive toluene smell, so make sure you use in a well ventilated area but it’s definitely worthwhile. I’m converting all my friends to using this one, in fact it’s going in a birthday present soon.

The only top coat I use :) it’s quick drying time, glossy finish, and lack of shrinkage makes it a winner
