Question 1

Does the top coat last more than a week?

Accepted Answer

-If you have strong nails and are on vacation being waited on hand and foot, this two step polish could last 14 days.  If you have good nails and do stuff, you might get a good week.  
-That said, it’s the best I’ve found and I’ve always had difficult nails: thin, prone to peeling, and now with the fine feature of old lady ridges.  I also seem to have an “oily surface.”  Back in the day, acrylics started to lift before time.  If I have my hands in water a lot, they soften and bend causing any polish to peel off but this does last longer.  
-No UV light required.  (SH does have a line that uses a UV light.  This is not it.)
-No base coat required.  Some colors require two coats.  To smooth out my ridges, I sometimes use three and the top coat.  Yes, you have to be patient and let it dry.  
-Comes off with regular polish remover, just takes a wee bit longer.  Some of the shimmers can be a little stubborn but it’s no big deal.
-I haven’t tried the matte top coat because I prefer a glossy gel-like sheen.  
-I love the shimmers.  They are beautiful alone or layered over a solid color.  I get compliments every time I do that.  (Let’s Get Digital, Shhhhh-immer, and Metro Midnight are my favorites.)
-Doesn’t bother me that it doesn’t last 14 days.  I’m up to 19 shades of SH Miracle Gel.  With so many wonderful colors and shimmer combinations, by the time it starts to chip or peel, I’m ready to change it anyway.

Question 2

Has anyone had a problem with the bristles of the brush falling out?

Yes. The seal on the side of the bristles splits over time and all of the bristles come out.

Question 3

No base coat is needed. Just color and top coat.
