What is the BEST Base & Top Coat Polish?

[bunnymasseuse]

I alternate Stickey base coat with OPI Chip Skip (depends on how much time I have).

I personally find I have better luck with the Nail Tek II than I do w/ the ChipSkip. I actually find the ChipSkip to be a waste... heck I'd send it to someone if they wanted it... I'm giving up on it

The best (for me) top coat for quick dry and shine is oh so wet. My nails are DRY DRY in 5 minutes.

RBL: i love their basecoat...their topcoat is nice, very shiny...but it isn't a quick dry

lippmann - also a good base coat, i found the topcoat to get really goopy after about 1/2 bottle and bubbled a lot


never tried butter london

I use zoya anchor as a base coat, & armor as a top coat sometimes...normally I use seche vite as a top coat.

I love Seche Vite Top Coat! It's way better in comparison to the many top coats that I've tried. I also have Seche Restore - their thinner that you add a few drops in when the top coat is thick. I also use this for my other nail polish and find it very handy - now my all polish can last longer!

Still in search of a good base though.

^^ditto! I feel the same way about Seche Vite.

I love Orly Bonder. Its a rubberized basecoat. The texture is kind of tacky which I think helps my nail polish to adhere better. As for a topcoat, I really can't say since I'm usually too rushed to allow another coat to dry, and I usually change my nail polish pretty regularly.

Hey Sara, have you ever tried to put Seche Vite over the RBL top coat?

I've noticed that if I Only use Seche Vite as a top coat - it dulls the nail polish in a few days... I wanted to try to keep the high gloss look...

So I'm thinking if I use RBL's top coat then the SV over that - I wonder if that would work?
