Your finishing touch for shine, strength, and stay-all-week confidence.

Wait for it

Seal it in

Brush on a thin, even layer of Be Protected from base to tip, covering the whole nail for best results.

Let it set

Hands off while it dries so your shine locks in and your colour stays flawless.

Now go shine your way.

👀 Avoid Eyes – If product gets into your eyes, rinse thoroughly with water and seek medical advice if irritation persists.

🖐 External Use Only (For Nails) – Only use on nails. Do not use on skin, ingest, or use for any purpose other than as a nail polish/top coat.
