Barry M Cosmetics Wet Set Quick Dry Topcoat QDTC

The best top coat I have ever used! Dries quickly, makes your nails look professional... I smudged a nail and it evened it out so I didn't have to repaint! No chipping! So easy to use!

I always had an issue with after applying nail varnish I would wait many hours before going to bed but still I would wake up in the morning with marks on my nails from the sheets!I went through and researched into many different quick dry nail varnishes and was a little bit worried by the reviews. So I decided to try out Barry M. Not only because it's vegan and cheap but also because it is a brand that I trust. All my other nail varnishes are from Barry M. And I thought I would give this a go before investing on a rather expensive quick dry top coat.So I read the instructions on the bottle and it said to apply over dry coloured nail varnish. The way I did my application was as follows:1. I applied my base coat (Barry M Cosmetics Super Mani 7-in-1 Nail Care)2. Set a timer for 10 minutes to let it dry3. I then applied a thin layer of colour (also a Barry M colour)4. Set a timer for 10 minutes to let it dry5. Applied my second coat of Barry M colour6. Set a timer for 10 minutes to let it dry7. I applied this quick dry top coat8. Set a timer for 10 minutes to let it dryOkay by this point it was bone dry BUT I had noticed that on the top half of the majority of my nails it had dried matt even though the colour I had applied was gloss...I found this to be a bit strange and thought it could be due to the ingredients in the quick dry top coat. I decided to try a second top coat. And it dried just as quickly while also solving this issue. It also was very shiny (I was worried it may not be as shiny as regular top coat). Also something to note is that THERE WAS NO SHRINKING!!! I am very happy. I now do not need to wait a million years for my nails to dry so will be buying more of this as it is now going to be used every time I do my nails!!!Please let me know if this has been helpful for you! 🤍

Really good finish, especially over glitter (using 2 coats). Dries within 5 minutes, by morning it is rock solid.It becomes thick very quickly, but works well even with repeated addition of nail polish thinner.As a result I am sticking to the smaller bottles, rather than the 15ml.

UPDATE 11/05/21.My previous reviews are below. At that time I gave it just two stars. I have decided to write an update as I gave this product another chance!So far it's working really well!! I decided to ignore all of the previous reviews & tips on how to use this & give it a really fair chance.And so....On Saturday evening (08/05/21) I applied the 7 in 1 Mani as the base coat. Waited for it to dry.I applied a coat of the Gelly paint. I don't think colour matters however thickness does. What's too thick? What's too thin? If you're applying it & having to drag it, it's too thin. If you're applying it & it's collecting near the cuticle or area around the sides of the nail, it's too thick!Let it dry enough that you can gently stroke your nails (not dab or tap) with clean fingers & they don't feel tacky.Apply second coat of your chosen nail paint.Let dry the same way.If you need to add another coat, do the same thing. If not, you're ready for this top coat.Again not too thin that you have to drag it as it will remove some of the nail paint! Not too thick that it collects anywhere. Apply with swift light strokes.That's it. It will be dry in approx 2 minutes or so.This method has worked for me & saved me giving up on Barry M! Nails still looking great today!Hope this review helps someone.I'm a novice btw so this has been a learning experience for me!---------------------PREVIOUS REVIEWS:Had high hopes for this.At first I thought I'd just received a dodgy bottle from Amazon so I decided to try straight from BM.Same issue, no matter which nail polish I usedBM or other brand this just seems to act like a peel off product causing every layer including base coat to soften & peel! I know it's not just me as I've read other reviews stating similar.Sadly I'll be returning the other bottles I ordered.I think you need to seriously re-think this formula BM.-----------------Dries fairly quickly, not at the speed that most of the positive reviews on here say. Showered next day & polish all started to peel off! Very disappointed. Any stars I've given this product are for it being vegan & cruelty free. But really as a 'top coat' it's waste of money if you want your polish to last more than a day.

This is by far the best top coat I've used. It has a great shine, drys quickly and protects my nail colours from chipping and keeps them looking like new for days and my nails go through a lot of hard work with wear and tear but it keeps my nails in top condition. It works well over nail art including stickers and crystals coating well.

This was definitely a quick drying nail polish and looked very shiny once dry. However, after two days it started peeling off, taking the base nail polish off with it. Disappointing.

Fast delivery and good product

Love that it’s quick drying, also super shiny!Didn’t chip at all.

Mit Abstand, der beste Überlack, dennoch jemals hatte. Er trocknet wie versprochen sehr schnell. Ich kann ihn nur empfehlen und würde ihn wieder kaufen.
