When you've painted your nails, do you need to apply a top coat?

You don't ';need'; to but you can, I always apply a shining/wet look top coat.When you've painted your nails, do you need to apply a top coat?
It's a good idea. You should ideally put a base coat on too, which can just be a clear nail polish. Once you've applied your colour, wait for it to dry completely and apply a clear nail polish or dedicated top coat polish to seal in the colour, this makes it last longer, become more chip-resistant and gives it a nice shine.When you've painted your nails, do you need to apply a top coat?
You dont realy need too. But it works better. If you aplly a top coat on it then it will last longer. When you wet youre finger it wont come off that easily. It looks better when you do have the coat on. But you still will look good without it. Heres a picture of how you will look with it and not with it-

Hope this worked.
its really up to you. If your nail polish color looks kind of dull, and not


as shiny as you'd like it to be then you should, and even if it is shiny, you can make it even shinier by applying a top coat, and as a bonus it acts as a protector for you polish so it will last longer.
You dont have to, but i would because it stops the polish from chipping as easily.


I normally put a basecoat, then 2 coats of nail varnish, and then a top coat :).

You don't have to.


But it looks best if you paint your nails with the color, and then put a clear coat on top. It adds some shine, and makes the polish hold up a lot better!


I hope I helped,

I would and I would also apply a coat before putting the polish on because if you paint your nails a lot your nails can eventually turn a yellow color.:/
not really, top coat is generally used to keep ur nail polish from chipping, makes ur nail shiny, and keeps ur manicure lasting 4 a really long time. its up to you! :D
I don't, and my nails look fine but when I apply a clear top coat it does last longer and give better shine x it depends on time x
I usually only apply a top coat when I do a design or something. But if u want 2 it won't hurt anything. :)
Sweetie, i think 褔ou should. You don't have to but its best if 褔ou to a top coat. Its reall褔 up to 褔ou. xoxo
I do 2 coats of the color and then 1 clear top coat.


They last longer and look better (shinier).
No and Yes, No You dont HAVE to. But yes, it helps the paint stay on longer. Hope this helps! oxoxox
You don't need to, but it will last longer if you do, and won't chip as easily.
you can if u want it makes your nails pretty and shiney
i usually apply to coats of the color then i apply a clear top coat
depends on the weather but putting a coat on too soon may smudge your nails
um...if u dont want it to chip off to ez...then...YES
