The Rimmel Salon Pro Nail Polish in Nymph is one of ten shades that Kate Moss apparently had a hand in 'creating'. It ended up in my basket when I recently went to Boots to pick up my new specs as it had £1 off making it £3.49 ...
Rimmel say you can get up to 10 days of chip resistant colour ... you know what I'm going to say don't you? Yep ... I didn't get 10 days (I mean 10 days ... in my dreams!) but I got 3 days (with top and base coat) - which is good for me. I can cope with 3 days. The brush is wide and flat with slightly tapered sides (apparently it's a 'maxi' brush) but is easy enough to use (although maybe the stem could be a tad longer but maybe that's me being picky!) - the polish needs two coats (in this colour anyway), dries in standard time and has a lovely high shine to it. I do love this colour - it reminds me of one of those lagoon type things you see in those balmy hot places!
So - yes ... I think I'll be after some other colours from this range of polishes - they're a good price and last fairly well on. I do want to make a dent in my existing nail polish collection though (that's me being sensible) so may well hold off until Autumn - I have my eye on Punk Rock which will be a perfect Autumn/Winter colour! But let's not wish the time away - I want to experience Summer first!
Have you tried any Rimmel Salon Pro polishes? What's your most 'long lasting' nail polish?

I've tried a few Rimmel Salon Pro polishes and I really like them! Probably one of my favourite brands, I haven't got this colour though and I think I need too, it's so pretty!

I'm so tempted to get another summer colour! Don't know if I can resist! xx
DeleteI love these polishes I can get about five days without a chip I'd be shocked if anyone can get 10 days
ReplyDeleteMe too Sarah - 10 days would be a dream come true! x
DeleteI really love the salon pro range, the nude one is one of my most worn shades. I really like this one too, I need some more blue polishes!
ReplyDeleteMust have a look at the nude polish - I don't need it but must have a look!
DeleteThis is such a pretty shade, I have a dark purple shade and I wasn't too impressed with it, it chipped so easily xx

Ah what a shame Rachel! xx
DeleteI adore this range, I love the wider brush and there's so many good colours! xx
ReplyDeleteTo many good colours Sasha - too much temptation! xx
DeleteThats such a gorgeous colour! and the applicator looks really good :)x
ReplyDeleteThanks Jodie - yes the applicator is easy enough once you get used to it! x
DeleteI haven't tried any of these, I only really have Chanel, Opi and Essie polishes. Which top and base do you use Jen? Have you tried Seche Vite? x
ReplyDeleteI've tried OPI but not Chanel or Essie Sharron - which is your favourite? I'm using Nails Inc Caviar Top and Base at the moment and quite like it. Haven't tried Seche yet but have heard mixed reviews xx
DeleteGreat colour, I really like this range of polishes. I've never usually believe the no chip policies they declare, I don't think any polish is chip proof xx
ReplyDeleteThis is true Gail - I was curious about the 10 days (got sucked in) still like the polish though - one of my favourites I reckon xx
Deletewhat a great happy colour! 3 days wear is pretty good for me too!
