GelishSoak-Off Gel Polish

This product is wonderful! The no-cleanse formula is a total game-changer, making the final step of the gel polish process so much easier. It doesn’t smear or yellow like some other products I’ve tried, leaving a flawless, professional finish every time. While the bottle is smaller than I expected and the price is on the higher side, the quality makes it worth it. If you’re looking for a reliable top coat that saves time and delivers excellent results, this is the one to get!

Perfect! Arrived right on time, packaging was well put together, and the shine of the product itself is exactly what I was looking for!

I bought this product because they use it at the salon I used to get my nails done at. I started doing my nails at home and had a different brand of gel top coat that kept peeling so I figured I’d spend the extra money and get this. However, this would not cure under the UV lamp no matter how long I left my nails under it, they were just sticky and tacky so I ended up having to use the other top coat I had just to get them to cure and dry. So was a little disappointed that I spent the extra money for such a tiny bottle and it didn’t work.

So before I start, I want to let you know that you will need alcohol NOT acetone to wipe off the sticky layer that the top coat leaves behind. This does not mean it’s not curing, this is the inhibition layer. I use 99%. You will also need to cure this under a lamp, it’s not nail lacquer! This type of topcoat is great for doing natural nails because it is more flexible and shouldn’t crack under pressure. My nails are salon quality at home which is what I need since I do my own nails twice a month. Yes, it’s expensive but it’s Gelish.. there are plenty of other cheap options if you don’t like the price. I’m on day two of my manicure and I have no cracks. Usually by day two, my nails are cracked already so I’m hoping this will be the cure to my cracked nails problem.

Not the regular size bottle very small. But does work

I got this to use with chrome powder on my nails. It works great!

So my pointy finger and ring finger have the matte finish on them. I would say yes it gives it a somewhat matte look but compared to my middle finger that has a normal top coat from this same brand, it is very different in finish. Now the picture is of nails that are a week old and I am a teacher so my hands and nails see some daily damage. This brand does make great quality gel polish and it is my go to brand. I have it 4 stars because of the look of the finish is not matte enough, there should be no shine at all for a matte finish.

This top coat is made for longevity and produces a beautiful shine. It’s a bit pricey for the size, but lasts a long time since it only requires a thin coat. I actually use it as a base + top coat and it works great for both. Highly recommend!
