Hi Diamod!

I found a number chip top coat polishes for you. I am providing
customer reviews for the products when available.



Sally Hansen - No Chip Acrylic Top Coat

?Make your manicure resistant to peeling and chipping with this
acrylic top coat. Applied directly after dry, freshly applied nail
color or as a freshening coat between manicures, this product adds
strength and beauty to polished nails.?
http://www.cosmeticmall.com/product_detail.aspx?product_id=69465&AID=10273839&PID=1412752


?A lot of people on the alt.gothfashion newsgroup complain that cheap
nail polishes don't last as long as department store brands. But
there's an easy solution -- use the inexpensive Wet 'n Wild polish for
the crazy colors, then add a high-quality clear topcoat. I'm partial
to Sally Hansen's No Chip Top Coat (which is something like $4, so
it's still not expensive).   If I use this topcoat, my cheapie polish
lasts for about two weeks. If I use the cheap polish alone, it usually
chips in three or four days.?

recommend it!?

75% would buy this product again

?I recently bought this product from a local store just to see if the
hype was true. I believe it did last a bit longer, but it wasn't a
miracle product for me. It was alright though. There have been better
products that I have used which was a heck of a lot cheaper than this.
I will not be repurchasing it again.?

?It's one of the better top coats out there. It could be a bit more
shiny, but other than that it works. My nail polish lasted about a day
longer and it did dry my polish ver fast. Good product, good price,
good deal.?

?Q: What products are available for home use to maintain a professional manicure? 

A: For nail strengthening, try Nail Selectives Tough'n Up. To
condition cuticles, try Haken Cuticle Oil. For basecoats and topcoats,
try Beauty Secrets Moisturizing Base Coat and Try Orly Won't Chip
Polish Shield. Professional nail polishes, such as Orly Nail Color,
Nina Ultra Pro Nail Enamel and Nail Savvy Xtended Wear Nail Lacquer,
often last longer than the "drugstore" variety. To remove polish, try
Beauty Secrets Non Acetone Professional Nail Polish Remover. Add nail
buffers and nail files, and you're set to keep those nails looking
nifty!?
