Talk about a "is my voice really that deep?" moment. Annoyances aside, I bring to you another blog post for today. 3 in a row, not quite sure if that means I'm being productive today, or if I'm just bored.

For this video, which I don't do videos often, I try to explain how shrinking works and what it looks like. I wish I could have made the video shorter. Please excuse the noise in the background, I was watching America's Got Talent if you must know, and I left it on to drown out my voice so I wouldn't be disturbed by people wondering why I was talking to myself. I tried to turn it low enough so the camera wouldn't pick it up, but I failed. This if my first talking video, so I am a bit scatter brained and slow to say what I want. I promise I'll try to improve this if I do any future videos.

Below is the video, and under that is more pictures with some descriptions of what you're looking at. I hope this helps someone, as I didn't quite understand what shrinking was until it happened to me. Enjoy!!

Poshé Super-Fast Drying Top Coat - Review

Overview

I tested this top coat right alongside Seche Vite and China Glaze's quick drying top coats. I like all three, and all three compare to each other wonderfully. Of course I will have a favorite, and a least favorite, I wont knock either of the two I reviewed as "bad topcoats". They are both very good.

Pros

Quick drying time. Not as fast as China Glaze and Seche, but still up there. No bubbles, no shrinkage. No chips, which China Glaze failed at. Smell isn't too bad either. Still stink, as nail polish does, but it's not the pungent smell quick drying polished tend to have.

Cons

I noticed the weirdest tip wear. It was more fading then chipping. Almost like the nail polish was being rubbed off of the nail. Weird, I've never heard of this.  The second day I had this top coat on the tips were chipping more than normal chip wear. I also noticed it wasn't as glossy as the others. Seche and CG had a glass like finish to it, something I couldn't achieve with this top coat.

Overall

I will probably find myself picking up this topcoat from time to time, but it will mainly serve as a back up if I need it. Out of the three, I place Poshé last. It just didn't hold up to the quality the other two had. I will keep it, and use it if I run out of the other two. It's good as long as I don't plan on keeping it on longterm. Longterm being 2 days+.
