Sally Hansen Miracle Gel™, Shiny Top Coat, Long Lasting, Gel-Like Formula, No UV Lamp Needed, Clear Nail Polish

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!

I can pair this review with the one I wrote on the polish. It went on smoothly, covered nicely, and it really is shiny--the look I was after. It dried very quickly, and within a short while, I was in the kitchen preparing dinner. No chips. No bumps. No marring of my nails. That's very nice. Fast and good. I bought on Amazon because I did not know I could use any of the top coats over the 1st coat until I went online for directions. I had much more variety to choose from on Amazon, and I will probably add to this collection.

This stuff works better than all other nail polishes. It stays on and stays shiny longer than most. I use this on top of my dnd nail polish too and it creates the gel look, stays glossy and caps the tips really well making my polish last a lot longer. This is the best top coat! I’ll be buying more if this for sure.

I bought the unicorn color and I like the thickness of the polish and the subtle shimmer. Only downside is it has a yellow undertone and I would’ve preferred a more natural color like nude or pink.

Shiny dries quickly and holds up nicely.

Sally Hansen Miracle Gel Nail Polish is amazing! The color is vibrant, the shine is beautiful, and it lasts much longer than regular nail polish. It gives a gel-like finish without needing a UV lamp. Easy to apply and durable enough to withstand daily activities. Highly recommend for a professional-looking manicure at home!

This is the longest-lasting nail polish I have ever used. It looked great for almost 2 weeks! This top coat is clear and shiny. Go to the bathroom and shower before you paint your nails, because even though it dries in 20 min or so, you really need to let it set for longer (at least an hour) to make sure it doesn’t budge. It’s not very easy to use, but it is worth the wait for the drying time. It dries in a thin layer.

This provides shine, but I would not say it has more volume that the traditional sally gel topcoat. I find this does not go one smoothly and has a tacky consistency when applying unlike the traditional gloss topcoat. It might provide a tiny bit more volume, but it barely noticeably. It is an OK topcoat. It also takes longer to dry than the original.

Der Lack ist sehr gut ,das matte finde ich sehr toll

Top coat Sally Hansen, de lo mejor que he probado. El pincel es una auténtica pasada, lo que facilita mucho la aplicación al ser plano. No se apelmaza ni es denso como otros de otras marcas. Acabado gel ultra brillante. Protege el esmalte y hace durar el color 7 días o más. Lo recomiendo

Expected it to be more shiny but it’s quite flat. Glad I got it but for the price I maybe won’t but again but we’ll see after a few more uses. It looks better sat on top of a colour rather than alone.

Buono
