Current nail base & top coat

Today, I'm going to share what I kind of nail products I use.  I don't think I've ever shared what I've been using as my base and top coat.
I actually like the base coat I'm currently using.  It's the Sally Hansen's complete salon manicure smooth and strong base coat.  It works pretty well; my nails feel pretty healthy.  My nails don't chip or anything, so I can't tell you if it helps prevent chipping.  Before this one, I was using the OPI base coat and I didn't like that one as much because it didn't make my nails smooth.  It basically didn't do anything for my nails.
For top coat, I am using candy coating from Urban Outfitters in lemon drop.  I bought this couple months back because I thought it was cool.  It's scented!!  It smells like lemon, like the name of the polish.  The scent lingers on your nails for about a day and sometimes, faint scent of lemon stays on the second day.  It does make your nails look pretty shiny.  I would not repurchase this product again because it claims that it dries clear, but it actually does not.  It leaves a slight yellow tint, which I hate!  The yellow tint changes the tone of the nail colors that I wear.  I'm going to finish using this because I don't want to waste it; I can't wait to finish using this stuff up.
The last step when I color my nails is to put on the dry kwik by Sally Hansen.  This thing really works!  The amount of time it takes to dry significantly reduces when I put this on.  I highly recommend this oil.  After you put this on and after your nail color dries, you can rub this into your cuticles.  I would definitely repurchase this one!
