Revlon Top Speed Nail Polish

There is not a day goes by that my nails are not painted. I have countless colours and many, many brands.

This Revlon top speed is a pretty good polish. It has a built in top coat, however I always apply a seperate top coat for a bit more shine and to protect the colour.

This polish goes on quite nicely, the brush is nothing special, very typical, I do prefer thicker brushes, I seem to do better paint jobs with a thicker brush.

I do two colour coats and then a top coat. The colour is very rich, good depth. I find it does dry faster than a regular polish which is great if you are painting your nails in the evening, at least they will dry before you go to bed!

I find this polish lasts me three days while I am at work and a bit longer if I am on holiday.

It comes off with regular nail polish remover.

Tips: Always add a top coat, it will help your paint last longer.

Holy Grail

I have the colour "lily" which is a light lilac colour.

This is a great nail polish formula! It dries quickly and lasts pretty well! The formula is thin so depending on what kind of result you want you might have to do 2-3 layers but that's not really a biggy as it dries so fast. I would probably say it takes a couple minutes to dry though, not the 60 seconds it claims. I often use a top coat with this polish and it lasts 3-4 days which is better than OPI or Essie on me. The brush tip is quite long which works well for me.

I would recommend this to a friend and I'm going to find some other colours to buy!

Tips: The RRP is a little pricey so I would try to find these at the Warehouse or discount beauty stores to avoid paying the RRP.

Too thin and chips easily

As the name of this polish suggests, this polish is quick drying. But that's about the only great thing about this polish. Drying time is also fast due to the thin consistency of this product. Because you only apply a thin layer it doesn't really take long to dry. However, the thin consistency makes the polish quite sheer resulting in multiple layers being applied to get an opaque finish.

This polish is also quite streaky to apply and I found it can be hard to get an even layer. The brush is quite long which is good. The brush is also rounded and I prefer flat brushes as this allows you to apply the polish more evenly with less strokes. This polish didn't last long on my nails and chipped within a compel of days.

Overall, this polish was ok but not great. I don't think I would purchase again.

Revlon Top Speed Nail Polish - Ocean

I love the quick dry nail polishes, especially if they do dry quickly as this product certainly does. I have the Ocean colour which is like a metallic turquoise which I love as the colour is vibrant and the polish lasted a week and a half (without a top coat) which is longer than most. Thumbs up for Revlon nail polish!

Tips: Use a base coat to protect your nails and top coat for a longer lasting finish.

Better than stander nail polish

I am busy lady and I don't have patience to wait till nail polish dry ( not goo). So always looking for nail polish which go dry quick. When I heard Revlon intruduce speed top nail polish, couldn't stop myself not to buy. I went straight in farmers and bought shade called "wind fall" it is nice bright green colour. Bottle is same like classic Revlon nail polish and its say speed top on bottle.

Nail polish brush is wider than normal nail polish so you need to swipe 2 and you done. I found formula is batter than stander one. Perfect consistency for one swipe and gives you good colour but I go for two coats for more bright and nice colour. Company claims its dry fast. Yes it does dry fast but no super fast...lol.

If you use top coats than its up to one week. Without top coats nail polish start chiping it after 4 days. I don't think so I will but it again. I would rather invest in my favourites one. If I like colour then I would ( my weakness is nice colour).

Tips: Use top coats for long last.

Dries super fast

I have so many Top Speed Nail Polishes. I bought them from The Warehouse ( cheapest you can get). Beautiful shades, dry amazingly fast. However it is not long lasting. It last 2-3 days and start to wear away. The brush is decent, creates even coat and I usually apply the second coat. I still love this Top Speed nail polish and keep buying.

Dries fast!

I have one shade in this polish - 555: Orchid. This was a gift from my Mum (via her friend!)and is a gorgeous metallic petal pinky purple shade. It's girly but still sexy. I especially love it on my toes, but when I wear it on my fingernails I get loads of comments about how pretty it is and how well it suits my skin, which is nice.

Like all classic Revlon polishes this range comes in a cylindrical bottle that is wider at the base. The tops on these are silver, which allows for easy differentiation from the standard ranges at a glance.

The brushes in this range are better than the standard; wider and offering better coverage. This is necessary because this is a fast-dry polish, which can go a bit gluggy if you're messing around with your application technique. It's also a thicker consistency than the standard polishes, making it less ideal as a nail art polish.

I still do two coats of this, out of habit, but it's not as necessary. The second does give you a deeper colour, of course, though.

As with all quick dry polishes this can be a little 'easy come, easy go' and if you're rough on your nails you can flake it off, but a good top coat alleviates much of this and I usually can keep it on around a week (with the odd touch up) before it needs to come off. This is on the slightly above average side for me, so I'm happy with that.

I'd buy more of these, but I wouldn't pay $20 for it as you can get quality polishes that are as good for way less.

Great colours available

I am definitely a fan of the quick dry Revlon polishes for several reasons.

They apply easily without streaking, are opaque in two coats, and best of all, SET FAST!

They are touch dry quickly but you do still need to be careful with knocks and bumps, as they aren't dent proof (found that out the hard way and had to start over haha)

The shades available cater to all tastes and the finish on these is really really nice! So good for people who are limited on time, and never disappointing.

Tips: Work quickly - these polishes set relatively fast so make sure you have enough polish on your brush to do the whole nail.

Super Fast

I normally go looking at The warehouse for any quick bargains that I might see reduced. At the time I saw this particular nail polish on a clearance sale for $3. It was normally $6 but halfed in price. I couldn't resist the urge to buy it knowing it retails for $20 else where.

Revlon is a brand that I'm very familiar with. It is one of those staple brands that I loved using growing up. I used to religiosly buy their shampoo and conditioner but they have discontinued that line.

The bottle is a decent size. The brush is easy to use and apply on to your nails. Consistency is a normal nail polish liquid. It isn't thick. When I applied it on to my nails it dried within minutes of application. When I'm away on holiday I don't have time to do my nails. I quickly apply this and I've instantly got perfect looking nails. I used a deep Maroon red. I was very happy with the speed. Lasted me about 2 days and then it started to wear away. Great for a quick lookk in such a fast time.

A quick fix product

I have a few of these (Ignite-red/orange, Spice it up- brown, Electric-yellow) picked these up for $6 each from the warehouse which is reasonable but I would have been very annoyed had I paid the RRP of $19.99 for one of these!

The best thing about these polishes is the fast dry time it sets/dries within a few minutes, other than that I don't see anything special or unique about this polish although it's not bad.

This polish formula is fairly easy to work with applies smoothly providing i'm working fairly swiftly, if you dilly-dally with this stuff the application is not going to be pretty. The brush is okay a little on the smaller side I would prefer it to be bigger. The color is vibrant and the polish is easily removed with any old cheapo nail polish remover but it chips very easily. This stuff is chipping off within the same day of application which is what really lets it down, it's more quick fix than quality.

I use these polishes occassionally they're suitable if I want to get the job done quickly, rough enough is good enough and i'll do it properly tomorrow but I definately won't be buying any more of these.

Tips: Don't pay $20 for one of these you will be sorely disappointed, I think you can usually get these for $6 from the warehouse if you want to try.
