Cuticles appear white on the nail if not hydrated and softened regularly with apricot cuticle oil. That said, it’s important to look for formulas specifically marketed as top coats. “Clear coat can be worn alone and is meant to compliment the natural nail; it’s not formulated to protect against chips and peeling,” Lee says. “Top coat, on the other hand, is formulated to protect the nail color from chips, peeling, and fading so you can achieve a long-lasting mani.” Adding a top coat is an important step, designed to seal, shine, and extend the wear of your manicure. However, some essie polishes have unique effects and finishes that do not require a top coat. Avoid Light. The pigments in nail polish—especially sheer and pastel colours—can shift over time when exposed to light. Be sure to keep your polish stored away from light (natural and artificial). We understand often you may collect nail polishes, however for best results, we recommend that polishes be replaced after 24 months of use.
