Seche Vite Fast Drying Top Coat.

Letting nail polish dry was always a complex process. I would usually paint my nails at night, a few hours before going to sleep, and the polish seemed to be completely dry by then. The next morning, the sheets' marks on my nails would show me how wrong I was most of the times. So I went on the hunt for something that would help nail polish dry faster. The first product I tried were fast drying drops from Essence. I went crazy. But then realised that it didn't always work. When the nail polish was a bit thicker, I would have sheets' marks on my nails again. Maybe someday it will be in, and I will kill for that look. Not yet, though.
So one day I shrugged my shoulders and just bought what everybody else had and raved about: Seche Vite fast drying top coat. It couldn't be that bad, if so many people loved it. And it wasn't: it was one of the best inventions ever made. Five minutes (even with thick layers) and the nail polish is dry to the touch. Half an hour later you can go wash your dishes that the nail polish won't go anywhere (it wouldn't go when dry). Plus, it will by shinier and on your nails for much longer. What's there not to like?
A secagem do verniz sempre foi um processo complicado. Normalmente pintava as unhas à noite, umas horas antes de ir dormir e o verniz parecia estar completamente seco. De manhã, as marcas dos lençóis no verniz mostravam que estava completamente errada a maior parte das vezes. Fui à procura de qualquer coisa que ajudasse a resolver o problema. O primeiro produto que experimentei foram umas gotas de secagem rápida da Essence. Delirei. Mas nem sempre resolviam, se o verniz estivesse um bocadinho mais espesso, tinha outra vez unhas pintadas com textura dos lençóis. Talvez um dia pegue a moda e eu queira esse look, mas ainda não aconteceu.
Um dia encolhi os ombros e resolvi experimentar o todo-poderoso top coat de secagem rápida que toda a gente tinha e adorava. Se tanta gente gostava, não podia ser assim tão mau. E não era: era das melhores coisas jamais inventadas. Cinco minutos (mesmo com camadas espessas de verniz) está seco ao toque. Ao fim de meia hora já se pode ir lavar a loiça com descontracção que o verniz não vai a lado nenhum (que não fosse quando está seco). E mais, o verniz fica muito mais brilhante e dura muito mais tempo. Não podia estar mais satisfeita!
Any other fast drying produts you recommend?
Algum outro produto de secagem rápida que recomendem?

I've heard this is the best top coat on the market. I haven't tried it personally, but it seems from your post it lives up to the hype. I'm currently really liking Sally Hansen Insta-Dri :)
ReplyDeleteI really love seche vite :)
ReplyDeleteAlso heard good things about Sally Hansen Insta-Dri, I would like to try it someday, it's just not that easy to find it in Portugal.
I just got this..haven't yet tried it! I would be so happy if it sets my nail polish quickly like that...I have the same problem with sheet marks by the time I wake up in the morning :(
