Maybelline Express Finish Nail Polish

I brought about 10 of these when they were on special for less then $5 so for that price they were quite good. I definately wouldnt buy them at the RRP. They do chip after a do or so and that's using a base and top coat as well (Sally Hansen and Revlon one time and Seche for both other times). They don't dry in 50 seconds either but much quicker than normal polish. For a cheap, fast drying polish I'd recommend the Rommel 60 Seconds over this. I usually use gel polish but when using normal the best I've found is OPI, although of course it also costs a lot more than these.

I had this nail polish in a nude/peachy colour and received it from someone so didn't know the colours available. The nail polish required a lot of coats to achieve the colour and an even texture. I was disappointed in the product due to the fact that it cracked very easily which then led to the polish chipping, which may have been caused because of the amount of layers needed to achieve the look. The nail polish did dry quickly, with the first layer definitely drying within 50 seconds but from then on, every layer took slightly longer and moistened the layer beneath it (extending the time required for drying). The colour itself was a lovely peachy colour but after a while, it began to yellow possibly because I don't use a base coat underneath.

I have had many of these over the years. The colour range has always been awesome, great selection of modern colours. The quality of the polish I found to be quite average, like it was quite thin and needed two-three coats to get it quite even and streak-less. I found it to have an average to good drying time, probably a bit more than 50 seconds though.

I didn't find it lasted very well on my nails, but then again not many nail polishes do. I would probably re-purchase only for the good colour the range offers.

I have had this in numerous shades and while the shades are nice it does take longer than the 50 seconds stated. It also chips very easily and is very bad for separating.

I've got quite a few colours in this range and have always found that they last longer than most nail polishes, and really does dry quickly (although i wouldnt say its totally set in 60seconds). Great range of colours and a good price!

I quite like the Maybelline Express range, with their clear base & top coat as my favourite go-to nail polish. It works under and over any other polish brand, and even looks nice on its own, but it certainly takes more than 50 secs to dry.

Taking into account base coat, two colour coats and a top coat, I'm looking at 30 mins or more to apply, but I do get a good two weeks or more of wear from this.

that is dries in 50 seconds. It does dry a lot quicker than most polishes on the market but I did not dry in under a minute. If applying 2 coats then I would still wait half an hour before using your hands otherwise you may still end up with smudges or imprint lines from things like I did. The colour ranges are good & over all it's not a bad range of polishes.

It does indeed dry quickly & the price is good & colour range good. It did chip fairly quickly though & peels easily. Though I do use the clear as a base coat & that works awesomely.

I have a few colours out of this range and I say that they are quite average. yes they did dry fairly quickly which is great but I personally needed at least 3 layers for it to not have looked like a transparent colour. Some colours were better than other but when wanting a nice colour on the go this wouldn't be an enamel I want to use as it takes time to get the colour build up. chipped fairly quickly also otherwise i found you were able to peel it off which results in damaging the nail plate. I would still use it again when having time to do my nails but as stated before its not a quick on the go. i suppose it was good for the price but can get a lower quality brand that works well if not better.

This product has two things going for it... the fact it dries fast and the fact that its quite opaque (so only need 1-2 coats). The down side to this product is although its fast trying the nail stays tacky for a while and if you're in a hurry, smudges too easily. Also, it last about 1 day on my nails, chipping away without doing much, if I've put on a top coat, I tend to get 2-3 days out of the polish. If you're in a hurry, this is perfect for you. But, if you want a polish that will last forever try something else.
