Not my favorite

I really like the colours available from Revlon, and the bottles are nice to look at too. I don't like the thin brush in these polishes as it takes too many strokes to complete a coat. Because they take awhile to dry, it's easy to mess up your second coat as it takes more strokes and smudges the first coat - making hard to get a good opaque even coverage. I find this too frustrating to buy more of these polishes. I have several in both light and dark shades as I kept wanting to give them a chance... I think if you want a light, transparent coat of polish like a shimmery see through pink or something, they would be fine. Not the best for a strong bold colour.

Tips: Wait a while between coats for the best chance of getting a nice even opacity.

Doesnt last 10 days

I have a few in different shades. They give good coverage and have a good consistency when applying. However, they dont last 10 days. I remove cuticles and buff nails before applying and the most I can get out of an application would be 4 days before they start chipping and looking messy. Ok if you want to apply for a night out, but not great if you want it to last all week for work.

Not long lasting or chip resistant

To be honest I wasn't impressed with this nail polish at all. I had high hopes for this nail polish given the brand name and the wide selection range, but sadly I did not like this nail polish at all. The main reason I don't like this polish is because it chips really easily and doesn't have great lasting power. It lasts about 2 days before chipping and cracking, so it definitely didn't last the 10 days as advertised or being chip resistant. I usually use a base coat, two layers of polish and then a top coat, and even adding a top coat doesn't make it last much longer.

The consistency and texture of this polish is quite thin and fluid. Because it's quite runny you need at least two coats of polish. I find that because this polish is quite thin it tends to be streaky when you apply it and it's hard to get a smooth and even layer. I find I get the best results when I put a lot of polish on my brush, enough to cover my whole nail so that I don't have to keep dipping h brush back in. When you dip your brush back in and apply more strokes of polish streaks begin to appear. The brush itself is rounded and all the bristles are positioned in a circular shape. I prefer the flatter shaped brushes as it makes it easier to apply the polish to your nail.

Overall I wouldn't be purchasing this again due to the fact that it chips easily. It is widely available at most pharmacies and farmers and there is a large variety of colours to choose from, but I prefer other nail polish brands.

Revlon Nail Enamel

I have had several of these, the only one i have left is the pinacolada one that i got on sale.. so far has not clumped but has gone on a bit thick, the glitter in it hasnt been good on my nails so have not used it as often and the pinacolada one has a very strong unpleasant smell.

Tips: dont buy pinacolada revlon anil polish unless you like strong synthetic smells and lots of glitter...

OPI all the way

By far the best nail polish is the OPI with their huge range of colours and shatter colours. Revlon I find doesn't last the distance compared to OPI

Mixed opinion

My first revlon nail polish went on streak-free and opaque. I loved it so much i brought another colour which i loved but i found that it would crack and flake off within 5 hours. I was extremely disappointed with it.

Okily Dokily

I have quite a few of these Revlon polishes, I can't say I've ever paid full price for one, I have always got them free with purchase or from a sale shop.

To be honest I probably wouldn't pay full price for this brand, Revlon polish and me just don't get along.

I find it hard to apply, Depending on the day it does or doesn't glide on smoothly for me, with or without a base coat.

And it chips, more quicker than some others I have tried, which is a shames because they do make some beautiful colours,

Hence why I do still own the ones I do have and haven't thrown them out due to being torn by colour and patience.

Just a nail polish

I didn't find this to be as useful as it read. My nail chipped and broke which is what they usually do with any other polish so this was no extra ordinary . The shades are good but it starts coming off after 3-4 days so I cannot say that this lasted long for me. I can use it as any nail polish without the tension of it stayifor longer. Don't expect too much out of it but it's not bad polish and Revlon is otherwise one of my favourite brands.

Tips: Maybe apply a top and bottom cote.

Meh

It’s a pretty basic nail polish. Nothing great about it and there are many other brands I’d prefer over this. I find the formula is too thin/runny and I need a few coats before it really looks it’s best.

Average - nothing special

This colour is a bit "meh" - it's fine for putting on your nails, but I prefer my nudes to have a bit of translucency - this colour is very thick and matte, and is a bit greyish for my liking.

Tips: Get a glossy nude which is slightly transparent for lovely nude nails!
