Yes you should buy these.

I think Revlon deserve a high five, they are my fav brand, everything I try from revlon never dissapoints me, I brought quite a few revlon nail polishes from the warehouse they were $6 each, I usually always see them when I am there, I dont have any cons for this product, they have a great color range, not as wide as opi but they have beautiful colors, they last long on the nail, they dont chip easily, they are very opaque, the colours I have the quality is consistant, they are not patchy, they apply nicely, they dry quick, and I love the revlon base coat.

Definitely Better Than You Expect

Besides OPI, this is probably the only other nail polish brand I own a large quantity of. Considering it is a fair bit cheaper than OPI, it definitely doesn't skimp on the quality.

The colour range is great and you have a large selection to choose from, not as big as OPI but still decent. Due to the shape of the brush, I find these are easy to apply and that they're very long lasting. They don't chip easily and do dry quite quickly depending on how many coats you apply.

As with any other polishes, there will be some colours that apply more opaque than others - so definitely try a few. The pastel colours with glitter in them are quite sheer, so do require a white underneath them to look more vibrant/opaque.

Wins my vote.

This stuff always lasts and lasts. Amazing range of colours. Easy and smooth to apply, fast enough drying and long lasting. Yes you can get a cheaper polish but is it worth it when it chips within hours. I have also tried more expensive brands that haven't lasted as long. This is a nice medium price ranged product that I would always recommend. Value for money.

Revlon nail enamel

I have two revlon nailpolishes, one a pearly pale pink and the other in pearly blue. They are really nice colours and look great after applying two or three coats. The brush is great, it gives an even application and covers a decent sized area so you don't have to do as many strokes. The reason I can't give this any more than three stars is the stickability of the polish. It takes ages to dry so unless you have 2 hours or more to sit around waiting for it to dry, you will get dents and imprints in the soft nailpolish. Also, it starts chipping in the first two days and just goes downhill from there. I love the colour range, but it's just not a great nailpolish, sorry girls. You're better to spend your money elsewhere.

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.

One of the best!

I have a couple of Revlon classic nail polishes, and absolutely adore the Raven Red colour. I find that you will require a couple more coats (3-4) than the usual 2-3 to get the correct colour, but that is fine with me. However, the thinness of the nailpolish has it's pros and cons. I have never had to use a nailpolish thinner on the bottle, which I have had to do with many other of my polishes. The brush is easy to handle, not too fat and not too thin, which makes it simple to have a tidy finish. I find that it lasts for a long time, is quite chip resistant, especially with a top coat. Only problem is, my nails outgrow the polish, so my ends end up looking unpolished. But I think the polish definitely delivers!

However, in comparison to other polishes on the market, it does not deliver a particularly stand-out 'shine', the shine is sort of dull unless you use a particularly shiny top coat.

Tips: Use an extra shiny top coat if you want it to shine.

Nice to have

I have this nail polish in many colours and enjoy them a lot. I uxe a base coat everytime I paint my nails, so once that has dried I apply usually 2 colour coats, on the odd occasion I have had to use 3 coats. It will dry in probably 10 - 15 minutes then I will top coat for a gloss finish. I do find the Revlon polish stays on longer than any other brands (except gels) but unless I am locked in a rubber room with nothing to do I will never get 10 days out of it (sadly). I am happy if I can get 3-4 days and then maybe do a little tidy up.

proven excellence

Love the revlon nail polishes they have the yummiest colours and really are long lasting and perfect for someone like me who has numerous animals (pig. Cat. Dog. Rabbit.) And children so my hands really take a beating

Tips: Give your nails a really good clean before applying

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.

Very good drug store polish

I find this stays on way longer than my opi nail polishes. Its long lasting and the colours are so nice!

Tips: use a top and a base for longer results
