As women one of our joys includes a flawless looking manicure. But the key to a perfect polish requires patience and a top coat. An at home manicure makes is incomplete without a base and top coat, why you ask? It helps seal the polish thereby preventing early chipping and to give a flawless finish. But that’s not all here are five reasons why you should invest in a top coat today!
At home manicures and nail arts don’t always turn out great but when they do you surely want to preserve it. Applying a top coat evens out all the bumps and ridges to make it look smooth and blended.
Quicken drying time
We know how impatient you get when you’re waiting for your nail paint to dry. Our busy lives and the constant need to be on social media make us even more impatient. So, applying a fast drying top coat quickens the process and makes your nails look stunning in seconds.
Add shine and sparkle
Add shine and sparkle to your fingertips and a dull nail polish with just one coat of the Lakme Absolute Gel Stylist Nail Polish - Top Coat. This transparent gel formula gives super shiny finish in just one stroke.
Make it last longer
Smudged polish, chipped nails are an ugly sight and a nightmare for most women. A single application can completely change the look of your polish and ensure that it stays put for longer than a few days.
Encourage nail growth
This one may come as a surprise, but adding a top coat makes the bond between your nails and polish stronger thereby preventing breakage and encouraging nail growth.
