Our new Smart Top Light and two shimmer tops are built for fast-working nail pros who care about quality and efficiency. The tack-free transparent top coat lets any color shine as it is free from optical brighteners. And our gold and silver shimmer tops? They add a touch of elegance that elevates any nail design. Use them on base coat or layer them over color—either way, your nail art just got an upgrade!
Here are three solid reasons why these three are the new must-haves!
Low-viscosity for a trendy natural look
Low-viscosity top coats are a huge trend right now, and Smart Top Light nails it. It’s all about achieving that natural, effortless nail look quickly and efficiently as formula levels itself and you get a flawless finish faster.
“I love the consistency of Smart Top Coat, it has a thinner viscosity making it easy to work with yet the honey like texture and self leveling properties allows you to correct the structure and minor imperfections when needed,” says Emma Jackson - a UK based manicurist, educator and mentor to many upcoming nail artists. “You gain more speed without sacrificing the quality,” she adds.
Putting your and clients health first
Why go tack-free? It’s shinier—by at least 5 gloss units according to our head of R&D, Ingmārs. Plus, it’s safer. No need to wipe off a sticky layer, which can spread the product onto the skin if you’re not careful. “Skipping this step reduces product exposure, making it safer for both you and your clients,” says Ingmārs.
Creating a tack-free top coat wasn’t easy. “To skip the sticky layer, the formula has to be extra reactive. That means stabilizing it becomes tricky, especially against light sources like UV, LED, and even daylight,” says Estefānija, an expert in top coat formulations. “It took a lot of research and trial and error to stabilize the key component, Thiol. But the result? A tack-free top that’s not only stable but also ultra-reliable,” she points out.
Perfect and durable finish
Our new top coat is not only tack-free but also TPO and HEMA-free, making them safer for all. Learn why avoiding HEMA matters by clicking here. Developing this formula was a journey that took over a year, but the result is worth it: a durable, safe top coat that delivers a perfect finish without the sticky residue.
Nail educator Emma recommends it over a French Manicure or Ombre nail to perfect and ensure a smooth even surface: “Also, this topcoat is suitable over the darkest of shades and doesn’t leave a blue cast or change the shade in any way.”
What’s Next? Smart Medium
This launch is a significant milestone in our commitment to innovation and quality. Next up, we’re working on Smart Medium—a thicker version of Smart Top Light. It’s for those who prefer more viscosity but still want the same advanced benefits.
