A staple in any gel nail kit, this glossy Top Coat locks in your manicure with that iconic, long-lasting shine.

It’s especially perfect for pastels, lights, whites, and milky shades, keeping them bright and fresh. Built-in UV-inhibiting ingredients help prevent these colours from fading over time, while its super subtle blue tint protects against yellowing, so light manis stay crisp. If you’re using darks, brights, or especially black shades, try our Non-Fluorescence Top Coat to keep these colours rich and true.

Apply pH Bond and Nail Primer if using, followed by your Base Coat, optional Builder Gel, Colour Coat, and Top Coat. Cure each layer under the Gelous UV/LED Gel Nail Lamp for a strong gel manicure that lasts over two weeks!

  1. Prep & dehydrate your nails.
    Optionally, apply pH Bond & Nail Primer.
  2. Apply Base Coat & cure under the Gel Nail Lamp.
    Optionally, apply Builder Gel.
  3. Apply 1-3 coats of Colour Coat & cure each coat under the Gel Nail Lamp.
  4. Apply Top Coat & cure under the Gel Nail Lamp.
  5. Apply Cuticle Oil.

    Awesome

    Love this top coat, have used it for about 4 years now with no trouble. Stays shinny through out the wear of my sets, which can be anywhere from 2-4 weeks between each!
