Have been buying for years...

I have been buying these and the 'top speeds' for years. They are always easy to apply, fast drying and wear well. Very comparable to the brands such as OPI and essie but perhaps somewhat lacking in the trendy seasonal colours compared to the other brands but they are releasing new shades all the time- they offer plenty of staple shades of nude, reds and wines so theres something for everyone. Their prices aren't too bad - though back in the 90s when I was a teenager they were always around the $7-8 mark but times have a changed and it's still pretty good to get a polish for under $20 these days.

Tips: Essential colours everyone should try at least once which never date - vixen, raisin rage, Revlon red, cherries in the snow, sheer nude and teak rose.

I really do love Revlon products, they are good quality and exactly what they say they do. Colours are great, you will find a colour for every occasion. Colour stay on for at least 8 days depending on how often you washing your hands. Does give a smooth finish.

Tips: I would like Revlon to make smaller bottles so that waste is eliminated and be tempted to buy more colours.

Agree with you on the smaller bottles comment! I have a few Revlon mini's but I believe they came out in a Christmas collection, and only in little box sets :)

Love the colours - dislike the brush

I love the Revlon colour range but the big downside for me is the horrible small long thin brush! The colour lasts for a while and looks great on but I have to be a lot more careful when I apply it and clean up time is usually much greater as opposed to using OPI or LA Colour or Kleancolor. Even the small stumpy wide Rimmel brushes are better than these. As above, I love the colour range but won't use them because of the brush. Major let down :(

Great smelling

I have 2 of the revlon nail polishes, 1 red one and 1 scented red nail polish. The scented one is called Mon Cherry and actually smells like cherries, although it is weird to have scented nail polish as people give you a few looks when sniffing your fingers haha. The scent lasts 2-3 days, which is a rather long time for a fragrance. I thought that applying a top coat would limit the fragrance coming through but it doesn't tend to. The brushes on the nail polish are alright, better than cheaper brands, but not quite as good and wide as the OPI brushes. The polish lasts about 2 days without top coat before it begins to chip and around 4 days with top coat. Overall I love this brand polish and you are able to pick it up quite often at Farmers for 1/2 price.

Tips: Apply a top coat to gloss and make the polish last longer.

Definitely my favourite!

Most of my nail polish collection is made up of Revlon product, you cant go wrong with it! Easy to apply (I like the brush size), dries fast and doesn't flake or chip if you apply properly using a top and bottom coat. Great range of colours too: pastels, bright, glitter.. something for everyone really! I add to my collection regularly and every time I go into the pharmacy they seem to have new colours out :)

Revlon Polish

Love Revlon Nail polish, this brand makes up majority of my collection and I would not hesitate to recommend it. It dries quickly (good for busy lifestyle) and always looks great

Tips: Base coat for darker colours and a top coat to make it last that little bit longer :)

My go to nail polish

Revlon is by far my favourite nail polish brand. I have several colours and will continue to buy them over other brands. I love the colour selection and there always seems to be new ones I haven't seen before when I peruse the Revlon counter. My favourite colour of late is Totally Toffee, shade no.415. I wash my hands regularly and just use my hands and nails as normal and my Revlon nail polish will last for at least 2 days without any really noticeable chipping, even with no base or top coat. OPI on the other hand, always has big chips within hours of application, even if I spend a long time carefully applying. I always read rave reviews about OPI, but personally it doesn't deliver like Revlon does. Also, Revlon definitely has a more competitive price, I usually don't think twice about adding another colour to my Revlon collection because they are affordable. Love you Revlon.

Tips: Personally I find this lasts really well with just the basic 2 coats of the polish, but for extra longevity I recommend a base and top coat.

Tried and true

I have a lot of nail polishes and my Revlon ones are always quality. I find they go on nice and easily, 2 coats is usually enough and they dry pretty quickly. Chipping is pretty standard but a good base and top coat will always help with that. They have a great range of colours and they're a reasonable price.

Tips: Keep an eye out at Postie Plus for Revlon polishes, they often have them for $8.00.

Classy nails

Huge range from their classic to brilliant strength, top speed, scented, colourstay Revlon nail enamel is a huge and trendy range! You have the best selection of colours to suit any outfit and any style. I'm a every day nail polish wearer and I mostly wear Revlon but being a busy Mum and self diagnosed clean freak my nail polish rarely lasts 24 hours without being chipped so a base and top coat is essential. Revlon has numerous base and top coats to work with each specific range. I'm wearing one of their top speed enamels called "Lily" it's lavendar coloured and always gets comments.

Tips: Take the time and pay the extra to get the base and top coat as they specifically say that to get the lasting colour it should be teamed with a top coat etc! They last for ages and you won't regret it

My favourite polish brand

Revlon nail polish is an absolute classic. It's what i remember using when mum would let me play with her polish as a kid. They are generally pretty long lasting, and have a reasonable range of colours, although not as vast as other more trendy brands. For classic staples at a fairly reasonable price (usually under $20), definitely go with Revlon.

Tips: Their quick dry top coat is a must!
