About 2 weeks ago Birchbox posted on their Facebook page a review of topcoats. Someone commented on that post that they'd stick with their Nubar Diamont. As you know, I enjoy painting my nails. But it's hard for me to keep a manicure good for 3 days or more. I know about Seche Vite but don't like that it has toluene. So when I saw the comment about Nubar I searched it out and it had a lot of good reviews and was toluene free! So I bought the Diamont topcoat and their base coat from Amazon and gave it a try!
And the results were great!!
I painted my nails Saturday night before bed and they lasted until Wednesday without a chip! 4 days!! I have never got that before with Sally (sorry bout ya girl!) I've used Julep's Freedom topcoat but it hasn't lasted 4 days yet.
This was taken on Tuesday...
And these were taken Thursday afternoon. Wednesday evening I noticed a small chip on my right pointer but look at my ring, pinkie, and thumb fingers! They're all still pretty good! I am impressed!
(sorry the right one is kinda blurry!....phone pics!)
Now I didn't clean house because I was waiting until today (hubby's been gone and I wanted the house to be it's cleanest for his return!) but I did do dishes and bath time and I put a bookshelf together on Tuesday!
And once the chips got going it did come off in chunks and I found I could peel the polish right off. I don't know if that's bad or good. But as far as finding a topcoat that lasts longer than 2-3 days I am well pleased! If, after using it more, anything changes I'll let ya know!
Happy Friday lovelies!!
I love a good topcoat! Thanks for the info. :)
