Anyways, the point of this post was to right a review of a new nail polish I bought, Revlon Top Speed Fast Drying Nail Enamel. Would I purchase this again? Definitely not. It was $5.99, which I think is way overpriced because you could get an OPI nail polish for just a couple dollars more. But, it was 40% off and I had $1 off coupon, so I decided to try it. I got it in Electric, which is not really a neon, but a bright sunflower yellow color. It's really pretty, I got tons of compliments. But this is where the good things end. It really does live up to it's name: it converted to that semi-sticky state where the brush starts leaving a mark when you sweep it over within five seconds. So I had to get a big glob on and quickly sweep it over my entire nail. Needless to say, my cuticles were a big yellow mess. And it didn't even look good. I got a whole bunch of those tiny little air bubbles on every single nail. What's worse is that it doesn't dry completely and stays sticky for quite a while afterwards. I used about half the bottle just trying to get all my nails done one time. The finish was very matte and rather hideous.
Bottom line: I would not repurchase. This was a terrible nail polish, although I quite like the regular (non-fast drying) ones. At best I would recommend this for your toes, where you won't have to see all those little bubbles up close.
