Why it's great: Readers who gave up on keeping their peeling nails fresh consider this "long-lasting," "amazing" polish the Holy Grail of chip-free nail polishes. "Finally, I can have painted finger nails!" exclaims one reviewer. "I can get six, seven, sometimes eight days of wear out of this polish," says a user who previously couldn't get a manicure to last past day two.
Readers recommend swiping your nail with alcohol before applying, which makes an "enormous difference" in how long the manicure lasts. While some reviewers initially balked at purchasing the required top coat (an additional $9.99), they admit it was "worth it," especially considering there are "no hassles with a light," which the polish doesn't require.

I think I have to try the Rimmel polish now. 9+ rating and only $2?!

Guess, I'm a gusher of Wet 'n' Wild it is a good polish and you can't beat the $$$ - I also thin my nail polish when it appears too thick but with ordinary remover - it works girls. ESSIE is overpriced for what you get. Not in my everyday budget. 'That's all FOLKS'

Wet 'n' Wild pricing is fantastic and it is a good nail polish if you use a good base coat and a super top coat, like Nails Alive.

I always go back to ESSIE! And Seche Vite makes a nail polish thinner, I think it's called Restore? Really does the trick! Also their top coat is the best I've found.

I like Avon, China Glaze, and one which wasn't mentioned--CoverGirl's "Outlast Stay Brilliant Nail Gloss." It has a built-in topcoat and looks fresh for more than a week, even with vivid shades!

I believe I'll try the Avon brand.
