NAILSOFTHEDAY Shell Top – professional decorative top coat collection

A pearlescent rub-in effect and a glossy finish in one layer – from violet to sky-blue and pink glow.

NAILSOFTHEDAY Shell Top – a collection of professional decorative top coats that combines a pearlescent rub-in effect and a finishing top coat in one product. The updated formula (“New Formula”) is designed so that the effect spreads evenly, without bare patches, and no additional regular top coat is needed. The manufacturer emphasizes that the Shell Top effect is visible over both light and dark base colors.

The collection consists of three 10 ml variants – Shell Top 01, 02 and 03. All of them are pearlescent top coats with no sticky layer (No Wipe).

Shell Top collection variants

Shell Top 01 – a pearlescent top coat with a violet rub-in effect. Depending on the base color and the angle of the light, the violet pearlescent reflection can look subtle or strikingly contrasting.

Shell Top 02 – a pearlescent top coat with a sky-blue / blue rub-in effect. The cooler glow looks especially beautiful over white, milky, nude, blue and dark bases.

Shell Top 03 – a pearlescent top coat with a pink rub-in effect. The warm pink reflection gives the coating a softer, pearly shine and can be used for both subtle and bolder designs.

Formula and benefits

• Rub-in effect + top coat in one product – no separate pigment rub-in step and no additional final top coat needed.
• Pearlescent glow – the effect changes depending on the base color and lighting.
• Even coverage – the “New Formula” is designed so that the pearlescent effect spreads more evenly without visually bare patches.
• No sticky layer (No Wipe) – no inhibition layer to remove after full curing.
• No additional top coat needed – there is no need to apply an extra clear top coat over Shell Top.
• Works over light and dark colors – the base shade changes the character of the final pearlescent effect.
• 3 effect variants: violet, sky-blue and pink.
• 10 ml professional size.
• Curing: UV – 120 seconds / LED – 60 seconds.

What look does Shell Top create?

The main Shell Top effect resembles a professionally rubbed-in pearlescent pigment, but here it is already built into the finishing layer. So there is no need to apply the pigment separately, rub it in and then seal it with an additional top coat. The manufacturer describes Shell Top as a one-step solution that combines these stages.

The final effect depends heavily on the color underneath the top coat.

Over white, milky, nude and pastel shades, Shell Top gives a lighter, subtle pearlescent veil. Over black, burgundy, dark blue or other rich colors, the same effect becomes more contrasting and much more visible.

As a result, the same Shell Top variant can be used to create completely different designs – from a subtle bridal or nude manicure to a bold dark base with a metallic pearlescent reflection.

Shell Top 01, 02 or 03?

Choose Shell Top 01 for a violet, cooler pearlescent reflection.

Shell Top 02 – for a sky-blue and blue glow that contrasts especially beautifully with darker bases.

Shell Top 03 – for a pink, warmer pearlescent effect.

Since all three variants are translucent effect top coats, the final result is shaped by the combination of the Shell Top reflection and the chosen base color, not by the color of the top coat alone.
