Top Coat Nail Polish | Which Top Coat Preserves Your Nail Polish The Longest

I'm not much of a nail person, so on the rare occasion that I do use nail polish, I want it to last. To see which top coat gives the most bang for your buck, I tested five different brands--on one hand.

I used a different top coat on each of the fingers on my left hand. My right hand was also painted, but left free of top coat, for reference. I did not reapply the top coat after the day one polish job--so these results show the full lasting power with a single application.
