Rimmel London 60 Seconds Super Shine Review

With the bigger than usual brush and quick drying time I find Rimmel 60 Second Nail Colour awesome if I need to do nails in a rush :) I have a really pale pink colour so not sure how the darker colours stack up (some people below have mentioned they're not awesome) but I find 2 coats is usually fine to achieve the coverage I want :o)

I have this in black. I am not sure if I got a bad bottle or it is just because it is black but the pigmentation in this was reeeeeally not great. It took me 3 coats to get it dark and it was super streaky.

I didn't time it but it did seem to dry quickly but I wouldn't recommend the black as it is really streaky and badly pigmented. Because of this I haven't purchased any other Rimmel polishes and I won't.

I used to love the Rimmel range, the coat application is great and the brush is just the right size to get an even coverage, you need to put on 2-3 coats, some of the lighter shades it can take up to 4 coats. But the claim of 60 seconds to dry was a little far stretched, took a few minutes to be touch dry which was a little disappointing

I find this range of nail polish pretty good, with a cute range of colours. In the past I have used up several of them, including the navy blue, bright orange and silver. It goes on smoothly with great coverage. Generally the polish quality is decent, although the formula did get thick and claggy much quicker than other brands which I have tried. My other scruple is the size of the bottles - they're so tiny that before long you're struggling to get a decent amount on the brush. I definitely prefer larger bottles of polish. The 60 seconds claim also disappointed me somewhat, as this product took no less time to dry than your average nail polish.

I have three of these rimmel polishes and have been really impressed with them. I have 660 Climax (one of my favourite shimmery purples), 230 Portobello Pink (shimmery barbie pink) and 619 Pulsating (shimmery fuchsia pink). The slightly wider brush which is quite thick makes apply the polish really easy. I have found these polishes wear pretty well but I don't know about drying in 60secs! I'd be to scared to test that out really. I don't think they are dent resistant and fully dry within that time frame maybe touch dry. No nail polishes seem to live up to there ridiculous claims of fast drying time though. There are some beautiful colours in this range available. I would definitely recommend them as an affordable alternative to my favourite polish brand OPI.
