Most manis never last long on me. Having soft nails that easily bend and break, most top coats don’t stand a chance of lasting more than a day before I’ve either chipped or ripped off half of my nail. While I am a fan of gel manicures, my wallet doesn’t share my affections unless there’s an occasion that calls for a long-lasting look. Thankfully, the industry gets my — and many other’s— predicament and has answered the call with a series of top coats designed to mimic the lustrous look and long wear of the salon service, no lamps necessary. These are the top coats that ensure my nails stay in tip top shape!

Yay, it’s May! As I banish my winter wardrobe to the back of the closet, I’m also brightening up my vanity with more vivid hues. While a punched up pink lip or a bold bolt of blue liner can add instant pizzazz to a spring ensemble, I love to look vibrant from head to toe. I’ve dug through my nail drawer as well as searched beauty supply shelves for a rainbow of rich hues to help your tootsies say hello to the sunshine in style. Whether you match your mani and pedi or just select a shade to rock with a pair of chic sandals, these lovely lacquers will brighten up a bad case of the Mondays.
