Today I have a different sort of post for you. A top coat review! A while back I was sent a bottle of Glisten & Glow's H K Girl Top Coat by Jindie Nails when I reviewed her Holiday/Winter 2013 Collection. I did a Three-Part post of that collection and I used H K Girl Top Coat on all the polishes (where I used top coat at all).

I was going to do the review of the top coat then. But I decided against it.

I don't know about you guys, but I'm pretty particular about my top coats and sometimes issues arise with them that I don't notice immediately. What if it's no good and based on using it on one collection, I recommend it and then it's not great? While I'd love it if I could only give positive reviews, some products don't deserve a positive review. So I decided to wear test it. Use it over different finishes, for nail art, etc.

Well the results are in!

I love it.

It IS, in fact, fast-drying as it claims. It IS, in fact, super shiny as it claims. It's smooth and easy and not too thick. It doesn't get cloudy or stringy. For really chunky glitter polishes, I'd still probably lay down a coat of Gelous or Poshe first, but then I'd top it off with H K Girl. You'd be surprised at how high up on my list the "not stringy" part is to me.

To see it in action, you can check out the three part Jindie Nails Holiday/Winter Collection posts because it wouldn't really do any good to show you "swatches" of it alone. (Especially on my stained nails. No one wants to see that!)  Part One, Part Two, Part Three.

But I haven't told you the best part yet! NAIL ART! Any of you who do any sort of nail art have had something you worked hard on smeared/ruined by top coat - even if you wait hours. I know I have. I used the H K Girl top coat on my Christmas Argyle Nails like 5 minutes after I was done and NO smearing!

Here's a quick smear test I did for you this morning...

I waited about 7 minutes after I did the dots.

This one gets two shiny thumbs up from me.
