Rimmel London 60 Seconds Super Shine Review

This is such a great nail polish! I love the formula, it goes on really easy and is not too thin so you can get a streak free look everytime. What makes it different to other nail polishes I've used is the awesome brush, it's wider and flatter and is so easy to use. This nail polish dries super quick! The only thing I didn't like that much was the colour, because I got it from the beauty vault I got sent the shade coralicious, it's just a little bit bright for me I prefer lighter colours or dark colours but I still wear it every now and then.

I really like the brush on this. It is thicker and flatter than most nail polish brushes so you can cover each nail with one sweep. I found it did take more than 90 seconds to be touch dry. Unfortunately the colour I chose, ‘Lose Your Lingerie’ (terrible name!) came out very streaky and more white than the pale pink it looked in the bottle. It wasn’t the look I wanted at all so I ended up buying another brand. This put me off trying another shade so I probably wouldn’t purchase this again.

Rimmel 60 second super shine nail polish is really great for the price. I brought the shade Ring a Ring O' Roses. It's a very pretty girly pink. Looks fabulous on with either one or two coats. Two coat does look better as there is less streaking but one coat gives a more natural finish. I love the wide brush it apply polish in one even sweep across the nail. No more filling in gaps. This definitely helps with less streaking of the polish. Dry time is pretty much 60 seconds but I always leave longer and apply a top coat for extra strength and shine. Unfortunately I find it chips within a day or two. I really wish the formula lasted as long as it claims too.

The brush is wide so you only need a few strokes to cover all of the nail. The polish is a thick consistency which means you all need two layers. It dries super quick. 10/10!

I have a few different shades of this brand in my nail polish stash, and while I enjoy using them, I don’t think they’re any better than cheaper alternatives. Let’s look at the company’s claims: • 3 in 1 technology for up to 10 days wear - Not at all. I don’t know what technology they’re on about but I’m lucky if I can get two days without a chip, no matter how careful I am. • High impact colour for ultra-shiny finish - Yeah ok, the finished result is pretty and glossy and lovely. I really enjoy using these nail polishes for nail art. • One stroke, precise application - I do love the wand/brush. It’s soooo easy to apply. One stroke though? That would probably take a hell of a lot of practise. • 60 second dry? - No ma’am, maybe if you apply a thin enough layer, but that’s true of any nail polish really.

Overall, it’s a pretty good nail polish for the price.

A while ago I was obsessed with this brand on nail polish because they had colours that I loved (Lose your lingerie, Instyle Coral, Breakfast in Bed, Sweet Lavender). Considering how thick the polish is, it does dry pretty quickly (not in 60 seconds though), and you only need 1–2 coats. I have found that the biggest downside to this nail polish is that the bottle goes gloopy and unusable way quicker than other brands, and way before the once opened use within however many months on the label.

It’s ok. Best to use a base coat and top coat if you want it to last. Nail polish never lasts long on me as I’m always in the garden etc. So if I put it on, it’s only for a special event anyway, so doesn’t have to last. That’s when quick products like this are very handy. But this does take a bit longer than 60 secs to dry fully properly, and also more than one stroke, it’s claims are a bit false, but it’s not bad. I prefer to use other brands though, so I only buy if it’s super cheap, clearance, and there’s a colour I like.

I love this polish, so much so that I sent them an email to say so (and their response was really lovely!).

I like the formula, colours are all great and lasts as well as anything else. But the thing I love the most is the brush/applicator. I can do one hand in about 30 seconds because the brush is wider and perfectly shaped. Love it!
