Ingredients and why they matter

• Ethyl Acetate and Butyl Acetate form the solvent base that helps the top coat dry to a smooth, even layer.
• Isopropyl Alcohol assists with quick evaporation to speed drying time and reduce tackiness.
• Cellulose Acetate Butyrate adds film-forming properties for a durable finish that resists everyday wear.
• Acrylates Copolymer provides adhesion and helps the top coat cling to painted nails for longevity.
• Triphenyl Phosphate acts as a plasticizer, contributing to a flexible yet hard surface finish.
• Benzophenone-1 offers UV protection to help maintain color vibrancy over time.
• Dimethicone forms a barrier on the surface to improve slip resistance and provide slip-free handling during application.

Usage tips and who this is for

• This top coat is designed to top off any Essie polish for a gel-like shine. Use it as the final step in your manicure or pedicure routine.
• For best results, follow a traditional polish application sequence: base coat, two coats of colour, then this top coat to seal and seal in gloss.
• Storage and handling: keep away from heat sources and avoid prolonged exposure to sunlight to preserve formula integrity.
• Safety note: test on a small area first if you have sensitive skin or a known sensitivity to solvents.
