The Best

This top coat goes on thin, so you can really control it very easily. But don't let the thin coat fool you. It has a really shiny finish and lasts for far longer than any other topcoat I've tried. I work a lot with my hands and tend to be bad about protecting my manicure but I can go seven to ten days without any chips or dulling with this top coat. I wasn't even getting that long the few times I tried gel manicures. Well worth the money for the length of time it stays on and the easy application.

NOT CHANEL'S USUAL BEST

After wearing Chanel nail polish for over 25 years because it is the best, I tried their Top Coat. I thought it would be like the Brilliant Top Coat they made years ago and discontinued. Instead I found a thin coat that didn't add much shine, a brush that was too flimsy and sparse requiring to dip three times for one nail, and my beautiful Chanel polish chipped in three days. The old Chanel top coat would extend the wear to 7-10 days. Would return but used it this one time.

Disappointed

I love Chanel nail polish and thought this would be just as amazing, DO NOT WASTE YOUR $$$$! I applied this top coat three hours before going to bed and woke up the next morning with smudged nails! So disappointed!!!! Needless to say, this product will be returned.

Very shiny

Great product, I use it under Seche Vite. I tried using alone and didn't dry as fast as I would like, so I added the Seche on top. The brush is thin, takes some getting used to. So far, no chips after 4 days and still shining! I think it makes the polish more durable. I used with Gitane! Gorgeous.

Another Beautiful Nail Product from Chanel

This is a great top coat that stays on longer than Chanel's gel top coat. I tried the Chanel gel top coat because of other reviews and even what the Chanel representatives told me, but the gel does not last longer for me. I much prefer Le Top Coat as it is not as thick and lasts an entire week. I removed my gel nails about 8 months ago and have been using a nail strengthener for a base coat, Chanel color, then Chanel Le Top Coat and I can make it a week without needing to redo my nails. Very happy with this product. Depending on how many layers of color you put on, it is not super quick to dry so I still use my OPI Drip Dry on top of this. Chanel nail polish has always been superior quality wise and their colors are beautiful. I receive a lot of compliments on their colors.

Disappointed

I thought this would be an adequate swap for Chanel’s Gel Top Coat but no. This doesn’t leave a shine like the Gel Top Coat and it actually is quite inferior in its drying time. Hours after applying, I still ended up with smudges and indentations. I won’t purchase this product again.
