Holy grail nail polish formula?

What top coat do you use?
Do you apply the top coat every 3 days?
Do you make sure to seal the free edge?

I quite like Sinful Colors but it's a hit or miss on whether it's going to last longer and not chip.
I haven't come across a brand that's super consistent in that regards.
Have you considered gel polish?

Ahh, okay I would also try using a good base coat. I quite like the Orly Rubberized Bonder. My nails are kind of thin and would bend/cause chipping but with a base coat it sort of helps your nails feel stronger and not bend as much so maybe look into a base coat, I haven't used many so I can't really recommend a good one.

I totally agree with Aurora, ORLY is my all-time favorite. Their Bonder base coat is amazing. I also like OPI.

Formula x is the only thing I use on my nails anymore, but you definitely need a base coat and a top coat, that you apply to the very edge of the nail and make sure it seals the color in, and then reapply every few days. I usually only reapply a top coat maybe once or twice a week and get nearly 2 weeks each time.

I suggest you invest in a good base and top coat. Seche Vite is my hg and eliminates chips when I use the top and base coat in combination. I have 100's of bottles of polish and Orly, Illamasqua and

I've found that all brands have hits or misses no matter the price (though Illamasqua, Deborah Lippmann and Butter London are the most expensive brands I own. Some of my Sinful Colors perform just as well.

Hi Eva! I've found that the essence nail polishes, theose from the gel effect line and with crème finish, are very vibrant and long-lasting but also some Avon Color Trend tiny nail lacquer are very nice... I pointing these becuase are inexpensive, so you can try and don't feel guilty!
