If you're looking for a cleaner, faster, longer-lasting way to finish your Shellac manicure, this is it. Why Professionals Choose CND Shellac No Wipe+ Top Coat The original CND Shellac Top Coat is a salon staple, but the No Wipe+ formula takes it further. Nail technicians across Canada are making the switch because it eliminates the inhibition layer wipe entirely, saving time on every single set while delivering an even glossier, more durable result. No IPA wipe needed: The inhibition layer disperses on its own after curing - no cleansing step, no extra product, no extra time. Up to 3 weeks of superior shine: Outlasts traditional gel top coats with a high-gloss finish that stays mirror-bright from application to removal. Shatterproof, chip and peel resistant: The flexible formula moves with the nail, resisting the micro-cracks that cause chipping on active hands. No yellowing over time: Colour stays true from day one to day twenty-one - no dullness, no discolouration. Sanitizer-resistant formula: Maintains its gloss even with regular hand washing and hand sanitizer use - ideal for clients in healthcare, food service, and other hands-on industries. Curve-hugging 200+ bristle brush: The precision brush adapts to the natural curve of every nail shape, delivering smooth, even, full-coverage application in a single stroke. Low odour formula: A more comfortable experience for both the nail technician and the client during application. Easy soak-off in 8–10 minutes: Removes cleanly and quickly without damaging the natural nail. Pro Tip: The No Wipe+ Top Coat is compatible with all 140+ CND Shellac Colours.

How to Apply CND Shellac No Wipe+ Top Coat Follow these steps for a flawless, high-gloss, wipe-free Shellac finish: Complete your base and colour application: Apply and cure CND Shellac Base Coat followed by two thin coats of your chosen CND Shellac Colour, curing each coat under a CND UV Lamp (2 minutes). Shake the top coat bottle: Gently roll the bottle between your palms to ensure the formula is fully blended before opening. Apply a thin coat to one hand: Paint a thin, even layer of CND Shellac No Wipe+ Top Coat across all five nails, capping the free edge. Avoid overloading the brush - thin coats deliver the best finish. Cure for 2 minutes: Place the hand under a CND UV Lamp for 2 minutes. Do not wipe after curing, the finish is complete as-is. No IPA or cleanser is needed. Repeat on the other hand: Apply a thin coat to the second hand and cure for 2 minutes. Inspect the finish: The result should be an immediate, high-gloss, smooth finish with no sticky residue. The manicure is ready to go the moment it comes out of the lamp. Pro Tip: Apply the No Wipe+ Top Coat in one smooth, confident stroke per nail using the curve-hugging brush. Going back over the nail repeatedly can disturb the formula and affect the final finish. How to Remove CND Shellac No Wipe+ Top Coat One of the standout features of the No Wipe+ formula is its fast, clean removal: the full set soaks off in just 8–10 minutes when done correctly. Never peel or force the gel off, as this will damage the natural nail plate. Lightly file the surface: Use a 180-grit file to break the seal on the top coat and remove the surface shine. Avoid filing through to the colour. Soak cotton in 100% acetone: Cut small squares of cotton wool and saturate each piece thoroughly with pure acetone. Wrap and soak: Place the acetone-soaked cotton directly over each nail and wrap tightly with aluminium foil. Leave on for 8–10 minutes. Slide off gently: Using an orangewood stick or cuticle pusher, gently push the softened gel off the nail in one smooth motion. If any product resists, re-wrap for a further 3–5 minutes. Nourish and restore: After removal, apply a nourishing cuticle treatment to replenish moisture and keep the nail and surrounding skin healthy. Frequently Asked Questions — CND Shellac No Wipe+ Top Coat What does "no wipe" mean for a gel top coat? A no wipe gel top coat is formulated so the inhibition layer, the sticky residue left on the nail after curing, disperses on its own. With a traditional gel top coat, you need to wipe the nail with IPA or a cleanser after curing to reveal the glossy finish. With CND Shellac No Wipe+, the glossy finish is ready the moment the lamp cycle ends, with nothing extra required. How long does CND Shellac No Wipe+ Top Coat last? When applied correctly over the full CND Shellac system, the No Wipe+ Top Coat supports up to 3 weeks of chip-free, high-gloss shine. Capping the free edge at every layer and ensuring thorough cure times are the most important factors for maximum wear. How long does CND Shellac No Wipe+ Top Coat take to remove? The No Wipe+ formula is designed for fast removal, the full Shellac set soaks off in approximately 8–10 minutes using the standard acetone foil method, without damaging the natural nail. Is CND Shellac No Wipe+ Top Coat different from the original CND Shellac Top Coat? Yes. The key differences are that the No Wipe+ formula requires no IPA wipe after curing, delivers a higher-gloss finish, offers up to 3 weeks of wear (versus 14 days with the original), and features an improved brush with 200+ bristles for smoother application. It is the upgraded version within the CND Shellac system.
