Nail polish questions...
For people who wear nail polish quite often, do you find the more expensive brands last longer? Or does it matter? Any brand recommendations?

I don't find that expensive brands consistently wear longer, but MOST of them do for me. Zoya is my favorite, but I only buy it when they have one of their great sales. The longest wearing polish I...

OPI, Essie, and Zoya are my favourite brands. I find OPI is the best of the three. I've never tried the real high end brands, just the cheaper drug store brands. I'm sure if you google it, a ton of...

I think Essie lasts the longest for me. It's my go-to when buying nail polish. Like kfree said though, I think prepping your nails and using a goo base and top coat are really necessary too.

I don't known if they necessarily lasts longer but I feel like they go on smoother and more even. Sometimes the cheaper brands are more transparent and go on kind of streaky and then you have to do...

I most commonly use OPI because I like the consistency and application but I feel like Essie is just as good, but a thinner application. I also have a few Butter London colors and those go on really...

I find that Essie lasts the longest for me. A lot of OPI and even Butter London peels off/chips relatively easy. But like everyone else has said, a high quality base and top coat can make all the...

It depends on your nails. When I get a salon manicure, I get better results with Essie (both regular and gel). One of my friends doesn't use anything except OPI, though, because it lasts longest on...

I'm a big fan of China Glaze. You need a good base and top coat also. I'm a fan of the China Glaze adhesive basecoat and the Seche-vite top coat is a must.

My favorite is Obsessive Compulsive. Survived 10 days at the beach last summer on my toenails! Zoya, Julep and Essie work great on my nails too.

Spoiled by WW was nice at CVS. I think one key is taking time between coats.Vinegar on the nail before painting seemed to help a bit too.

None of the regular polish brands last that long on my nails, maybe 3 days. Essie has the best color selection by far. I also like how Essie and OPI are a little less prone to clumping. IMO nothing...

I like China Glaze, but I only use it on my toes. I haven't found a single polish/base coat/top coat that lasts for more than 24 hours without chipping on my nails. I get my nails done with Shellac...

I'd be pissed if my nail polish couldn't last 24 hours! I have Essie on my nails now, with no base or top coat and they look pretty much perfect after a week. Actually the only thing that looks bad is...

I've been using a cheap, quick dry top coat from Walmart and it works like a charm. Better than Seche Vite even, which I found would just peel right off. I change my polish often, but if I'm feeling...

I'd get so bored of a colour after 3 weeks, so I'd never be able to use shellac. I paint my nails 2-3 times per week

Spend and get a gel manicure. It's worth it as they look the best and last the longest. No chipping and a good one lasts for three weeks.
