Mine usually only stays on for a couple of days, because i always end up a) peeling it off or b) getting tired of it. :] haha. so how long does yours stay on?

I usually only change my nail color once a week (I don't have the time or patience to do it more often) so having my polish last as long as possible is super important to me! Usually it last around 4 days before it starts getting noticeably chipped, but sometimes it stays looking pretty for the whole week. Usually it depends what I'm doing that week (if I'm doing a lot of cooking or cleaning, my polish will chip more than if I'm not doing much with my hands).

I can get my polish to stay on without chips or peeling for a week. :) Nothing longer than that though because I can't stand the look of messy unkept nails, the regrowth line also bugs me! :)

5-9 days. I have this random top coat that works amazingly well!

With a good base coat and a fair top coat usually about a week. ( I actually would suggest getting O.P.I natural base coat, because its the best one I've tried, and I've tried alot XD )

Mine usually last for about 7-10 days before I need to change them, if I don't change them before then. I always use Revlon Extra Life No Chip Top Coat, and it is a miracle worker.

For me it depends on the polish. I get 5 days of wear with Orly and China Glaze polishes, 3-4 with OPI and Sally Hansen. I bought a set of Urban Decay polish minis, but those flake on me within 24 hours, so those are a disappointment. To get things to last longer, I use a base coat-- nail life Gripper-- and a topcoat--seche vite.

i do my nails every Sunday so about a week. I find though that China Glaze usually begins to chip after 3-4 days so I stick to OPI and Sally Hansen brands.
