The product is easy to apply, lasting about 1-2 weeks in duration. It is thicker than OPI top coat.

Sally Hansen was probably the first nail polish I bought that was pricey for my teenage years lol. I would use the clear top coat by Sally Hansen because it helped my manicure last so much longer, especially since I bought a lot of polished that fit a teenager and young adults budget. I definitely recommend this product and I still use it when I need a great drug store clear polish.

The whole Sally Hansen line is good quality but the ultimate shield and the hard as nails clear top coats are the best for preserving the longevity of a at home manicure.

I like this top coat because it gives your nails protection while also leaving them very shiny. This formula is easy to apply and the brush works very well to coat your nails. I highly recommend this product.

I really like this clear polish. Great used directly on nails for a natural shine and as a topper over my favorite nail color. Lasts a pretty long time even with washing my hands quite often. Sally Hansen Advanced Hard As Nails Strengthening Top Coattm

it’s so enjoyable to know that you have an extra layer of nail polish fighting against anything that can potentially ruin your nails . therefore i use this top coat 24/7 even when there isn’t a color on my nails !

I have bought this a couple times now... as i hardly use nailpolish, so when i apply it i have to make sure it lasts a few days and then i use this shield to protect it. You apply a base coat then the color you want your nails to be and when it dries you apply a top coat and booom you have a flawless manicure at home. It protects your nail polish to last longer.

This stuff is cheap and works a lot better than more expensive products that I’ve tried. It goes on smoothly and helps my nail polish last longer. It’s also easy to buy since it’s sold at most stores.

Absolutely my top favourite top coat. This makes any polish I use last for up to 5 days and on my nails that is amazing. It drys pretty quick as long as the colour is fully dry. The shine is also amazing.

I put my hands so much in water whole day but this coat helped me with perfect shine and endurance of a nail paint. Also both top and base coat in one bottle is good rather than 2.
