Topcoat rave

It's expensive but I've been using the Butter London Hardware PD Topcoat and I absolutely love it. I bought it in the Tops and Tails set which was $25. I've used it with Butter London polish and other polishes (with no base coat) and am able to go at least 5 days without chips if I'm careful with my hands. I did reapply after two days for extra shine which may have extended the life of my mani but since it dries so fast I don't mind.

The base coat looks great and dries perfectly smooth but made my mani chip within two days.

Re: Topcoat rave - Butter London

Okay so I read some reviews of the Butter London basecoat on Makeup Alley and a few people said they used it alone with the topcoat for a perfect nude mani. I tried it last night and wow! I can never get nude polish to go on smoothly without streaking but the basecoat goes in perfectly smooth, any streaking is only visible VERY close up, and is a great pink/peach shade which is nice on my pale skin. I used two coats of the basecoat and one of the topcoat and it looks awesome! I'll update the review later when I see how it wears/chips.

I used to only use Seche Vite but it's a little too thick for my taste and doesn't extend the life of my mani at all
