Top 5 red nail polishes
Short or long, you can't beat a classic red nail.
WHY WE LOVE IT
As you would expect from Chanel, the colour is absolutely beautiful. Â Vibrant, bright and a joy to apply.
“A traditional nail polish as opposed to a gel. Â The red is a deep cherry red, rather than a scarlet shade which suits me better. Â Quality nail polish which you would expect from Chanel – goes on smoothly and evenly, not too thin or thick in texture, with lovely lacquered glossy finish. Â Looks like a quality expensive nail polish, even more so if you can be bothered to put a topcoat on too. Â (Try Seche Vite)”

WHY WE LOVE IT
The brush that comes with this nail varnish makes it super easy to apply. We love the consistency and the fact that it lasts for a long time without chipping in the first few days of application.
“OPI nail varnishes are my go-to brand. They glide on effortlessly and last well. Â This is a true bright, popping red, which looks great with my skin tone and looks like I’ve made an effort!”
Kit
WHY WE LOVE IT
A great value, drugstore buy that lives up to it’s name. Â A true red that gives a lovely opaque finish and lasts well.
“I love the deep, true red of this polish and the brush feels really solid, giving easy, firm application.”

WHY WE LOVE IT
This is by far the cheapest of the nail varnishes in this selection but don’t let that put you off. A great bright red that has a lovely consistency, it comes with a wide brush which makes it quick to apply and as the bottle says, it dries very, very quickly!
“This is a proper red and it goes on really well. Long wearing, nice brush, a good reliable polish that’s not too expensive.”
