Bubbles form, long drying time

I'm pretty amazed by all the good reviews. Every time I've used this top coat it has created bubbles as it dries. It also takes hours to dry fully! Stays tacky and sticky which makes it easy to ruin a beautiful manicure.
Helps my manicures last longer!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love this gel-like top coat! It helps add an extra layer that hardens up quickly, and really helps keep my manicure on longer. I make sure I always finish off every manicure with this top coat!
Will make it chip faster!

It might make it look like gel, but it will also make it chip faster! (I even did a side by side testing…)
Super disappointed

I really wanted to love this, because I love In a Rush, and thought the other reviews must not have applied this correctly. I followed the directions and was very careful with my nails. They started chipping after just 2 days. In a Rush will usually last me a solid 5 days. But this barely 2. It does crack as other reviewers have said, and I moisturize my cuticles daily. Returned.

I went from having my nails done professionally for years to doing them myself. They started out so thin it was horrible. Then I discovered ella+mila. I use the Firm Foundation nail hardner, a beautiful polish and the What the Gel gel-like top coat. My nails have never been this strong or healthy! I have got my fingers caught on things and my nails didn't break. I will never use any other product again! Love you ella+mila!
Long lasting wear!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This top coat is great! It makes me polish last upwards of a week and a half with minimal wear and tear. Highly recommend if you regularly change your polish at home and want a bit more space between polish changes.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I live that the product has little to mo oder. Applys smoothly onto nails and has improved nail health. However, my manis have not lasted more than a couple days before the polishes start to chip and by day 5, I am needing to change it. Otherwise, I like the colors and the ridge filler is my favorite!
What the gel top coat is magic!!

I don’t know what is in this product, but this what the gel topcoat is the best topcoat( I use it as a base code as well. Mix my polish last forever.) is the best product I’ve ever purchased and I keep buying it over and over again. I’m 55 years old and I’ve been doing my own nails forever. This is the best product. Thank you for making it. Actually got on this site to purchase it AGAIN !

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The look of this top coat is very nice. and very gel-like. I even had a couple of people ask if I had gel polish on. However, the reason for 2.5 stars and not 4 or 5 is that it's a little "sticky" for lack of a better term, even after it's dry. It also has a "nail polish" smell for a few days even after it's dry. It's the only one in all the polishes I have from Ella + Mila that does this.
Great stuff

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Tomorrow will be 7 days since I polished my nails. I have no chipping. That is amazing compared to other brands on the market. I like that it dries quickly.
No difference

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] It doesn’t seem to be any different from a normal topcoat. My polish began cracking and chipping the very next day. It’s not worth the money in my opinion.

It was too thick, took forever to dry, and some of my nails had the dreaded sheet marks. it chipped fairly easily. Hard to remove with soy remover. I prefer in a rush top coat
Great product-tough to remove

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I really like this top coat but it is almost impossible to remove with regular polish remover. Any certain kind I should use or just use acetone? Thanks
