Two coats and I was done—no base, no top, and they were dry enough for typing in under ten minutes. My nails actually feel firmer, not just painted, and the shine alone makes it look like I hit the salon.

I’m terrible at waiting for polish to dry, so skipping base and top coats is a huge win for me. The brush spread the color evenly in two quick coats and my nails have a natural shine that’s lasted four days without chipping — even after typing all day.

Two coats and I genuinely couldn't tell where my nail ended and the polish began — it looked like I'd had a professional gel manicure. The fact that I skipped base and top coat entirely saved me a solid fifteen minutes, and three days in, not a single chip.
