Review: Revlon Top Speed Nail Enamel - Golden and Ocean

 Golden

What is it?
"New Revlon Top Speed's patented formula delivers amazingly quick color, with a built-in topcoat that rises to the surface for a glossy, ultra smooth manicure- that sets in 60 seconds. The Color Precise™ brush ensures even, smooth, salon quality application every time. Available in 32 shades." - Revlon website


Retail Price: $4.99

Ocean

My Thoughts:
I purchased the Golden and Ocean colored ones. Both of them were very rich in color and quick drying. I would say it dried at around a minute and a half, which is still really fast for me.The formula was not streaky, it came out very smooth. I absolutely love the brush, it was thick and easy to use. I was so amazed that I just had to dip the brush in once, and I can apply thin coats to about 3 fingernails before moving on. It wasn't goopy, and the coating came out perfectly. I used a base coat, 2 coats of the nail polish, and then a top coat to achieve the "look". With that said, I did not see chipping until the fourth day. Golden is a really pretty light gold color. I didn't think it look well with my skin tone. I think it would look wonderful with darker skin tones. Ocean showed up differently when you turn your nails to a certain angle. It could look Christmas tree green or azure blue -basically, your blue/green color. This color was so rich!


Would I recommend this? 
Yes, definitely! It's great for a quick and easy manicure.

  2. I love the colours!
    Very pretty!
    if you think they don't suit you well and if they are well pigmented perhaps you can do some nailart with it in the future.^^ I do that with colours where I think they don't suit me. xD
