If your a sucker for OPI Polishes like me, I assume you probably have the whole deal of every kind of basic polishes. For starters, it's deffinately helpful to have a top coat/base coat which can mostly be used for the same purpose, which is to coat your nails before you put colors on it, and after. I've noticed that top coat/base coat products work wonders any way you use them, but if you use a base coat as a top coat, it doesn't work. I have used Revlon Super Top Speed Clear Coat for years, but that was before I regularly did my nails. It's a cheap and affordable brand, and it's avaliable at drugstores. When I found out about OPI, I tried my first color, which was Miami Beet, and after about a month, I tried OPI's top coat. What I did was I used the top coat from Revlon on the big toe on my left foot, and my OPI top coat on my right foot. I was actually testing how much better the OPI top coat was compared to the Revlon one, and it turns out that my Revlon polish drided smoothly, and the toe I used my OPI coat on had a little bit of streaking going on. So, I think it's worth it to invest in OPI's colored polishes and use a trustable drugstore clear coat.
I do use OPI's base coat, and that's fine, but you can deffinately use Revlon's top coat as a base coat too :)
