I bought rimmel pro yesteray, lovely colour, not chipped yet and dried fast. Better than the cheaper rimmel ones.

I love Barry M, cheap enough and a great variety of colours and if you use a clear base/top coat it lasts for ages.

Rimmel ones are great! 60 second I think they are called. I also use seche vite top coat which is amazing.

I love OPI but with a decent top coat cheaper brands last just as well IMO!

see OPI now looks like a bargain to me after perusing the £17.50 Chanel range.

Essie colours usually stay put. Plus Nails Inc does a great topcoat which gives shine and is tough dry in seconds. Can't remember the name but it's a blue liquid and you can get it in Boots!
