        Excellent nail polish

        4 years ago
        Absolutely love this nail polish. The deep red colour is stunning. I find that one coat is enough as the coverage is really even and it dried really quickly. It lasted approximately 4 days before the tips started wearing off.

        Yes, I recommend this product.

        Super sexy shade of red

        4 years ago
        I loved this deeper hue of red it looks so sophisticated and sexy worn on the fingernails and toenails. As always I applied two coats which gave a superb colour payoff. It didnt take long to dry and was fairly east to apply. It didnt chip as I sealed it with a top coat and it lasted me well over a week before it chipped and once I'd removed it it didnt leave any stains on my nails as can happen with darker shades

        Yes, I recommend this product.

        Lovely colour but chipped quickly

        5 years ago
        I really love this bright nail polish colour, it goes on easily with the slightly flat brush. I found it took a good few coats to get a decent coverage though and so it took a while to dry. It did chip a little after a few days unfortunately so I'm not sure if I would but again.

        No, I do not recommend this product.

        Love the colour lasts great

        5 years ago
        Stunning colour really pleased with it. Was easy to apply and goes on smoothly. Iasts well and didn't chip for me I used a top and base coat to make the polish last longer. I can't wait to try more colours in the range so I can change my colour and style more regularly

        Great product

        4 years ago
        Love it. My nails have very uneven nail Ed, and polish usually doesn't even last a day on them but with this one it lasts even 3 days. The paintbrush is of good quality and helps with coating the nails nicely. Colour wise I would describe it as plum with shimmer.

        Yes, I recommend this product.

        Quick drying!

        5 years ago
        I love this colour, it was brighter than I expected and it has a beautiful subtle sparkle so it’s suitable for any occasion as well as everyday wear without looking over the top, it dried so quickly and was really hard wearing.

        Great colour

        Well to say that it dries in 45 seconds is very true which i was a lot in doubt about. But it did relive to the quote. The colour is beautiful and the nail varnish has lasted well with the amount of duties i do!

        Lovely colour

        5 years ago
        A lovely vibrant colour, something I wouldn't usually choose. It lasted a few days before chipping and longer when I used the Essie topcoat. Received comments all week about my nails would definitely use again.

        This is my favourite shade, it dries quickly, doesn't chip and it looks so nice and shiny. This doesn't need a recoat either, it applies really well. I absolutely love this shade, I wear this so often
