I am a big fan of the gel manicures, but I hate how they ruin your nails. I am not one to continuously go in and get my nails manicured every two weeks. I would love to do that, but lets be serious, who has the time?!
I have been testing out different nail polishes, base coats, top coats and speed dry polishes. I have tried everything from Essie, Sally Hansen, Nail's Inc and Deborah Lipman, to name a few. My fav so far is Formula X.
Formula X is a brand that can be purchased as Sephora and has intensely pigmented polishes and amazing base and top coats. I was testing out the polishes and top coat and noticed after a few days, my polish didn't chip. I started paying closer attention to this and my polish lasted about 5 to 6 days with out one chip! I was so happy!
This top coat is a bit thick so you don't have to use a lot of it. When the polish dries, it is super glossy and it hardens a bit. I found that it works well when you put three stripes on your nail with this polish. For example, start in the center and put a stripe from you cuticle to the tip and then repeat on the left side of the nail and on the right side. When I didn't do this, or if I put more then one coast of this on, there were bubbles. So be careful of that. Other then that minor con, this is the BEST top coat that I have used for high gloss, chip free nails! It's only $10.50 too-Holla!!!!
A Formula X kit also is available for $32 which comes with the nail cleanser, primer, a color of your choice and the top coat! Steal of a deal! The polish is great and they have the most amazing spring colors!
So hurry scurry and get some now!
