I absolutely love the Glisten & Glow top coat!! It is a super glossy quick drying top coat that dries slightly slower than SV, but doesn’t shrink my manicure as much as SV does
Seche Vite is my essential! Almost gave up on doing my nails before I found it, it dries so quickly and I love the fact that I can apply it over wet polish with no problems. 🥰
I use the revlon diamond top coat it is so glossy and shiny and it dries pretty quickly!! I use it on any old polish I don’t have to use it with the diamond colors that revlon makes I just use my other polishes! Love it so much! Thank you for sharing your favorite top coats
I love the INM Out The Door top coat and use it during every manicure. I used Seche Vite once after a manicure but the strong scent gave me a headache.
My favorite is the Salon Perfect plumping gel top coat. It's not a gel but it looks like one and makes my nails super shiny for a long period of time and dries instantly
Omg...my nails haven't chipped since I started using O&J top coat. I found that it doesn't dry like I'm used to, so the last two manicures, I started finishing it with Seche Vite to get it to dry faster. Nothing wrong with two layers of top coat so far!
Hi Amanda! I’m a fairly new subscriber and have quickly become obsessed with your videos. They have helped my extremely short, damaged and weak nails transform. All of your tips and tricks have helped me so much. I am so beyond happy I found your channel! Also, when is that cuticle oil coming? 😂 I am so excited for it and can’t wait to buy!
Gel setter is my favorite! I change my nail polish every 3 days. And the gel setter I can apply is on semi wet polish and it dries within 5 minutes and super shiny! But after a year I’ve noticed that it’s causing some shrinkage
Hey Amanda! I stumbled upon your channel looking for O&J tutorials and I am hooked on your channel! Do you foresee an O&J Summer 2022 preview? Appreciate you!
So interesting to me that Essie gel setter works for you!!! I’ve given it so many chances but my manis always chip within 2-3 days if I use it. My fav for longwear lately has actually been the OPI regular line top coat. Last week I got a mani that lasted a whole week with that one! 🤯
Ahh that's so disappointing to hear. I love EGS so much but find it a little pricey, so I use sparingly. I'm glad you found a topcoat that works for you - anything that helps you mani last a week is a win!!
The absolute best on the market is: Addicted to Speed by Deborah Lippman. Pricey, but it dries almost instantly and it dries every layer! It's a miracle!
Thanks for sharing. How fast does the Morgan Taylor dry? I use the gel setter, After getting used to how it dries, I can't stand any top coats that dry slower. Is the MT comparable to the Gel setter?
I have very long natural nails, however I have to put about five coats or more of polish on otherwise they bend. Any suggestions on a really rock hard top coat?
Oh my goodness, that's a lot of coats! haha Have you ever considered gel or acrygel overlays? I have naturally weak nails and often do a gel/acrygel base coat and then top with regular polish! Helps keep my nails very strong. There are some videos on my channel talking about both! :)
@AmandaBellaa no interest in any enhancements. I did nails professionally for 30+ years and have had every type of enhancement known to man. I don't want gel, acrylic or anything like that on my nails. My nails are very long and healthy naturally. Just looking for a rock hard top coat.
I don't think the O&J top coat is that glossy, tbh. It does make polish last longer, though. My pedi will last 4 weeks without chips when I use it, but it does take a looong time to dry. When I use a quick dry top coats pedis only last 2 weeks. So it's a toss up

I have GOT to try!!! It sounds amazing. 👏🏻
Amanda you will love it
Glisten and Glow is my number one. Fast drying, no shrinkage and it’s a small Indie brand. Second favorite is Seche Vive in the blue bottle.
Ok need to try both of those!! I always trust your recs!
my favorite top coat is OPI plumping top coat!!! makes your mani so glossy and gel-like! highly recommend
Woahh! How have I not tried that one!? Gotta check it out!
Seche Vite is my essential! Almost gave up on doing my nails before I found it, it dries so quickly and I love the fact that I can apply it over wet polish with no problems. 🥰
It really is the OG! It has it's flaws, but there's nothing quite like it.
@@AmandaBellaa Yeah it has toluene in it
I use the revlon diamond top coat it is so glossy and shiny and it dries pretty quickly!! I use it on any old polish I don’t have to use it with the diamond colors that revlon makes I just use my other polishes! Love it so much! Thank you for sharing your favorite top coats
Ohh I'll have to check that one out! I haven't used a Revlon polish in such a long time, I need to revisit :)
One of my faves is Nails Inc 45 second top coat! It's fast and glossy ! Love it!
Love it!!!! :)
I use Dazzle dry top coat, it’s great dries very fast, I think is the best top coat, my second choice is Seche vitae
I love the INM Out The Door top coat and use it during every manicure. I used Seche Vite once after a manicure but the strong scent gave me a headache.
INM is a must have! And I do agree - Seche works well but that smell can be a pretty unpleasant.😖
@@AmandaBellaa It can, Seche Vite has toluene in it so that might be why it has that irritating scent
Great video.. I'm an Out The Door girl at the moment. I wish I could get my hands on Olive & June here in Australia!
IMN is such a good one! I hope O&J is available there soon!!
My favorite is the Salon Perfect plumping gel top coat. It's not a gel but it looks like one and makes my nails super shiny for a long period of time and dries instantly

O&J really has a winner with that topcoat! Love the idea of layering with SV - omg I bet your manicures last forever hahah

What is the best clear top coat for holographic polish??
Seche Vite is my absolute favorite.
The finish on SV is fabulous!

Ok SOLD! Need to try this ASAP! Thank you for sharing :)
Morgan Taylor is my number 1 and then Seche Vite.
Yessss! :):)

Thanks a lot Amanda..you help us a lot..♥️
You're welcome Sharanya!! That means a lot. Thank you so much for watching!
What’s the best top coat for acrylic color nails?
Seche ViVe (not Vite) in the blue bottle. It’s great.
I have very long natural nails, however I have to put about five coats or more of polish on otherwise they bend. Any suggestions on a really rock hard top coat?
Oh my goodness, that's a lot of coats! haha
Have you ever considered gel or acrygel overlays? I have naturally weak nails and often do a gel/acrygel base coat and then top with regular polish! Helps keep my nails very strong. There are some videos on my channel talking about both! :)

essie gel couture top coat. It is a MUST!!!
I've been using Orly polishield for a while now, I do apply three coats though but as an Essie lover, I'll definitely try the Gel setter.❤️❤️❤️
My favorite fast drying top is Glistening and Glow , Essie Gel Couture top coat is also a good one.
I've got to try this Glistening & Glow!! Thank you for sharing :)
@@AmandaBellaa you're welcome
Groovy! Let's see your fave base coats!
Working on it!! :)
Have you tried the Dazzle Dry line?
I haven't but I keep hearing incredible things. I need to order it like yesterday. May put that on my to do list today! :)
OPI BRILLIANT high shine top coat, dries FAST, UBER glossy. Amazing, bar none #1 I've ever tried.
Sadly Essie gel setter is not available on my country(Philippines) what would be the best dupe for Essie gel setter?
OTD is awesome 👌 love it
It really is! Just an all around great product!
How glossy is INM Out the door?
Try Deborah Lippmann addicted to speed!!! Changed my life 💙
Gelish top coat!!
Always go for a gel mani!
I'm with ya girl!! :)

Nail Bliss Top Seal was amazing and now discontinued

Poshe top coat...its basically Seche Vite without the harmful ingredients in Seche Vite.
