Ella+Mila What The Gel? - Clear Quick Dry Top Coat With Glossy Finish - Gel-Like Polish No UV Required - Plumping Nail Care (0.45 fl. oz.)

I recently purchased this top coat and I'm very happy with it. I polished my nails four days ago and finished with the what the gel topcoat. I'm happy to say that so far I've only got one tiny chip in my nail polish on finger so I think that's pretty awesome. The top coat texture is shiny and smooth with no weird streaks or bubbles. I really like this top coat and I will purchase again.

This really gives my nails a high shine and thickness that looks like I had gel cured on my nails. Am loving it.

Has strengthened my wife's nails in less than 1 week. Amazing.

I hate writing bad reviews but I wouldn't want anyone else to waste their money like I did. I prepped my nails with the brands base coat and applied 2 coats of this polish for a clear nail look. Less than 24 hrs later nearly all of several nails had peeled off and there were chips on the rest. When you pay this much for polish (plus shipping) it's so frustrating to get these results.

Little bit of a learning curve with how thick this top coat is, but I'm LOVING it! (Follow the directions and only use one coat.) I build lawn mowers for a living - Dirty work that's rough on your hands/nails. This is my nails after a week! 🤯

The media could not be loaded. It definitely gives the gel nail effect. In which I like gel because it's more flexible than rigid thin polish.Pro: It certainly dries fast like gel. It may take 5 mins to complete dryness if that.Con: It dries fast and thus you better get it on fast because whatever fast dry they use gives sticky and clumpy very quickly. It seems extraordinarily stringy. I've not had the polish a month and it's a stringy party. However by putting on a clear top coat it smoothes everything perfectly and my natural nails do look luxurious. All of this being the proce to pay for non toxic polish that looks good in the end. Keeping in mind I only wear clear so not sure how it fairs with colors.Pro: is it's advertised as non toxic and as someone who is on a healing journey I appreciate pretty nails that aren't a source of aiding to body malfunctionCon: It smells awesomely similar to toxic polish. 👀☠️Pro: It certainly ads a great layer of protection on my natural nails, in which are impressively long and The whole purpose of buying ella+mila was to keep them strong and protected which it does well.Con: The polish doesn't last long, as I find myself needing to touch up cracks and chips in polish a few times a week. I HAVE NO TIME for chipped polish as my nails are as sacred as my hair and I don't want them unprotected. So I've just adjusted my mind to knowing this is apart of my few times a week self care = to touch up until it finally pops off or cracks were it's obvious I need to do the complete nail set.WORST CON 👿: Once the polish gets below the brush, it is literally a nerve racking obstacle course to get to it. So you don't get to use the whole bottle. I don't think the company did this intentionally bc its a huge turn off but more they didn't spend any thought about beating out their competitors by trouble shooting a common issue with the brush. So by the end of the bottle you are struggling to get polish and that pressure to reach it keeps disconnecting the brush stem. So you are experiencing sticky strings on your new polish nails and time on fighting with the brush to stay in place. 😆. It's definitely a hot mess but IT DRY'S FAST so you can rub it off and paint it smooth.It was the frustration at the bottom of the bottle that inspired this review 🤣 my God!All and All I'm definitely purchasing again but now I'm seeking a better user experience from other non toxic polish companies.In all fairness I don't use their basecoat or top coat so perhaps the system will aid to longevity. So when I feel like spending $40 on the set I'll update, potentially

Perfect! Manicure lasted 10 days!

Not like Gel at all.
