What is the best nail polish brand out there?

I've currently been using this stuff by BON-BONS, but it doesn't stay on very long (my toes it stays on forever though). Are there any better brands out there?What is the best nail polish brand out there?
Gotta go with OPI.The are always coming out with new collections, with the best and latest colours.What is the best nail polish brand out there?
Yeah, OPI is pretty good, but I feel it is way overrated by people. What makes a polish 'good' is the formulation of the chemicals used during the manufacturing process. Nail polishes are essentially all made of the same basic chemicals - with some variation. It's the amount and type of each chemical used, and the manufacturing process in which these chemicals are made into the resulting nail polish which makes all the difference in quality - not the price tag on the bottle. There are polishes available for only a couple dollars a bottle which perform equally - if not better than more expensive brands, such as OPI.


That's the nail polish piece. Important, yes. But there is more to it. First, always start with squeaky clean nails. Make sure your cuticles have been pushed back and that the nail is free of any leftover cuticle skin. Then, use 99% Isopropyl Alcohol or even polish remover on a lint free nail wipe and clean your nails immediately before polishing your nails. Scrub each nail well, and be sure to get the entire surface of the nail clean including near the cuticle area and the sidewalls (the sides of your nails where the skin meets the nail). The idea is to remove as much naturally occuring oils and other contaminents from the natural nails as possible. Avoid washing your hands for at least two hours prior to polishing your nails. Water will be absorbed into the nail plate and if they have not thoroughly dried - which takes about two hours, then the polish will not adhere as well. Next, use a HIGH quality basecoat before applying any polish. Not all basecoats are created equally. The cheaper basecoats do not perform as well as high quality brands. High quality basecoats will create a sort of double sided tape effect on your nails which the polish will adhere to much better than if basecoat was not used. It will also help to prevent staining from the polish by forming a 'protective' barrier between your natural nails, and the polish. Lastly, polish will 'glide' on much more smoothly when a high quality basecoat is used.


After basecoat - and one thin application is usually sufficient, apply the polish in two, thin coats over the basecoat which - by the way, should not be allowed to thoroughly dry before applying polish. It works best when it's still a little wet. Allow basecoat to dry only a minute or two before polishin your nails. Let the polish dry between coats. Then finish your nails with a good quality topcoat. Topcoat, and clear nail polish are not the same thing. Use a topcoat. You can get fast drying topcoats, but honestly? The longer your nails are allowed to dry on their own without the use of fast drying products, drying sprays, drops, or anything else which speeds up the drying process - the better. While it may sound appealing to reduce the time it takes to polish your nails, speeding up the process i any way affects the gloss of the polish when it's dried. It will usually be less glossy, and will look often dull and uneven. The end result - when properly air dried, will be longer lasting polish with a high gloss, durable finish which should remain chip free for at a week or more.


I hope this helps. (Sorry this was soooo long!)
I would definitely buy Sally Hansen!!! they have any color you can think of and you can buy them at any drug store . they have the french tip white, anything your looking for. the color also lasts about 6+ days for me (if you want it on that long!) so i would definitely buy that. XD


and obi is even really good they have amazing colours and its stays for a long time.
YESSS!!! O.P.I. it is the best ever!! they have it at nail salons and at beauty places in the mall. There are so many different colors to chose from and they have really cute names on them.
I use Barry M, although I use a clear strengthening base coat first then two coats of the colour then the clear as a top coat!


It stays on for about a week! : )
