A polymerizable nail coating composition includes a reactive (meth) acrylate monomer a reactive (meth) acrylate terminated polymer selected from the group consisting of a reactive (meth) acrylate terminated polyol polymer, a reactive (meth) acrylate terminated polyester polymer, a reactive (meth) acrylate terminated polyol urethane polymer, a reactive (meth) acrylate terminated polyester polymer, and combinations thereof wherein said polymer is derived at least in part from a polyether or a polyester having either a melting point between 20° C. and 60° C. or a glass transition temperature between 20° C. and 60° C. and a polymerization photoinitiator, wherein upon exposure to radiant energy, said polymerizable nail coating composition cures to a photocrosslinked polymer.
