This new improved top coat formula byAprés is an easy application and once cured, there’s no need to wipe. The Top Gel Coat won’t reform the gel ink and designs used underneath or leave a milky film on top of the nail. This Gel also can be used as a base coat for Artisté Artink colors. Top Gelcoat is the same soft-gel formula that leaves your nails fresh for up to 4+ weeks.
