Revlon Nail Enamel Review

I have had gazillions of Revlon polishes in my lifetime, and I have drawn up pretty good barriers with what I buy and what I don't anymore.

The bottles are all the same, a triangular-ish bottle made of glass, very heavy (well, a lot heavier than your usual polish) and very sturdy too. The brush is perfect. Not too thick, not too thin, quite long.

The formula of the non-glitter polishes and the glitter polishes are much the same. It glides on smoothly, dries quick enough and doesn't streak (too much on some pastels/lighter colours).

The glitter however lasts about twice as long as a normal polish before it chips. A normal polish would last about 4 days on me before it chips, usually starting anywhere on my nail and not necessarily the tips. It is shiny - and stays shiny for quite some time during your manicure. I usually take it off once it starts to chip so for me the shine doesn't go away - but it is lost after a couple of more days.

Because of this I don't really wear anything else than glitter polish in Revlon. I also use another top coat with it, or gel over it to lengthen my manicure's life.

Ten whole days is a long time in nail polish days! Although this product is pretty good it definitely does not last ten days with or without the Revlon base and top coats! I do like the Revlon nail polishes but its really doesn't last that long at all.. It probably would if you were a princess and had nothing to all day :)

The colors are very nice but for me some of the colours do come out a little bit streaky because of the size of the brush.. I am not a fan of the brush.. If it had a better brush it would be much easier to apply and I would give this more stars!

I really like buying nail colour. I believe nail colour just completes your entire look. Revlon has been around for many years. I've mostly only tried perfumes and nail lacquer. I am yet to try their make up. I hope to do so some time soon.

This nail polish comes in a normal glass container. The brush was your normal brush. The colour I picked was Totally Toffee. I like these brown nude tones.

When I applied this on to my nail I prefer to have at two to three coats to get good coverage. It definitely didn't last ten days for me. It lasted me about two days, without top and base coat. I managed to get myself a bargain at the Warehouse. I got them on sale for $3 a nail colour. Normally $6 when their not on sale. At pharmacies they can be at least $20 a bottle. I always love to shop around to find a good deal. Was an ok nail colour.

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.

I purchased the shade 'Angelic' awhile ago when I was away for a weekend, i wanted to paint my nails but didn't want to spend too much on a polish. The colour is quite pretty, I found it a bit thin though so definitely need more than 2 coats to see the colour properly. The brush is easy to use, glides on nice and smooth and evenly but I found it took awhile to dry, which I don't really like in a polish (I'm so impatient). The colour is a peachy colour that shines pink when the light hits it.

I do like Revlon's range of colours, and they do go on very smoothly, but there's no way I get 10 days chip-free!! I use OPI base and top coat (not Revlon) but I don't think this would make a difference. I'd get 4 days chip-free if I'm lucky. Usually 5-6 days with OPI. But if you don't mind changing your nailpolish every few days then this is perfect!

I must say I do like revelon nail enamels. I love the colour range. Great vibrant colours for summer! Its not a thick polish, consistent and dries easily. I also like the lasting power!

I have a few Revlon polishes in my collection, and I find them ok to use, but I prefer OPI. Revlon has a far smaller range, the brushes are a bit flat and narrow for my liking, and it has a tendency to chip quite quickly on my nails. Having said that, I love the Revlon colours I have and they are a decent price.

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 :(

I love Revlons range of colors and the ease of application as well as the smooth and silky texture of the polish on my nails... they are bright and vibrant and really make a statement.. the price is also quite affordable which is great.. only downside is that it doesnt last that long and needs to be re-applied
