I 100% agree that both OPI & Essie are great nail polishes.
Seche Vite is also a great quick drying top coat, although it does go a bit funny near end of bottle.

What are your favorite nail colors?

5th Avenue from Essie is my go to red.

I go through so many different phases with nails


For a striking red I like - 'Big Apple Red' by OPI or Geranium by Essie

For the perfect pinky beigey nude: 'Do you Take Lei Away' by OPI or 'Ballet Slippers' by Essie (the Queen used to wear this shade!)

Glossy black: 'Licorice' by Essie

Holiday nails - 'Mint Candy Apple' by Essie or 'Bikini so Teeny' (Light blues and mint greens look great with a tan)

Winter nails - I like 'Malaga Wine' or 'Lincoln Park after Dark' by OPI

I love Funny Bunny by OPI, such a beautiful milky white. For autumn I like Stay Off the Lawn and Lincoln Park After Dark. Ballet Slippers by Essie and Base Coat Abricot by Dior are perfect for a “your nails but better” look.

Can anyone recommend a nail varnish that is long lasting, don’t want gels done as my normal nail lady is away so I want something to go on with. Just a high st brand that is good..I’ve tried Barry M and it chipped straight away!!

In my opinion, the best high street nail varnishes are: OPI & Essie.
Best top coat is Sally Hansen Miracle gel.

Just looked up Abricot by Dior - how gorgeous!

Essie and OPI are my favourites. Essence is also quite good if you’re on a budget.

I haven’t tried Essie, I will have a look. I’ve tried OPI in the past. Thanks

I rarely get my nails done and when I do I can never decide what I want. What are your favourite designs

I trawl instagram. Search hash tags with things like #pinknails or whatever you want or #nail art #springnails etc. And from there I find loooads of pages to look through for inspirations

I have a couple of Essie ones and they always chip but my Barry M ones almost never do but then I do change my nails so much because I'm always picking my skin due to anxiety so It end up coming off prematurely, haha.

Ok don't hate me but Ballet Slippers just doesn't work for me, it's like sheer and streaky. Not sure if I just got a bad one but it such a let down.
Go Go Geisha however is my fav nude. It's opaque and creamy, matches my skin tone well too.
