Red Nail Polish Recommendations

[BeretRaspberry]

Hi,

Please can anyone recommend a red nail polish for me. I’m pale skinned so tend to suit deeper/opaque colours and I also need it to be a cool (blue?) red, rather than a warm orangey one. And of course something that lasts.

I mainly wear it on my toes as I cover those nails all the time due to having an op when I was younger leaving them discoloured. I’d not be adverse to wearing it on my fingers now and then though. Budget not an issue if decent.

Thank you.

I have tried many but still like the Rimmel ones best. Nailed It is a good deep ish red

I like the Rimmel 2 step one, I think the colour I use is called Rock and Roll.

It's red with a clear top coat that seems to cure - I think it's called super gel.

Thank you both, I’ll check them out.

I always think Chanel Rouge Noir looks super classy on nails

@Runoutofinkagain I love that colour but I’m not 100% sure it will suit me. I don’t know why. My sister always has a gel colour very similar and it looks fab on her.

OPI - Red Hot Rio

I'm pale skinned with cool undertones and have always worn Fire by Chanel. My mother always did too.

Second Rimmel. I have bought all sorts of polish and with a decent top coat it’s hard to beat. I like the 2 step Rock n Roll PP mentioned but I also have double decker and some orange reds. My top coat of preference is Sally Hansen Insta-Dri but toes are easier than fingers for not smudging.

Watching for recommendations. Can anyone tell me, is the Chanel long lasting?

Essie do really good cool toned reds. They seem to chip less on me than others.

OPI 'Got the Blues for Red' and 'Malaga Wine'. They are both nice cool-toned deep reds.

I find Chanel doesn't last well on me. Rimmel of the Primark gel one has great staying power and quick drying.

One of my favourite reds is Rimmel Rapid Ruby. It's in their 60 seconds range, so can be a bugger for chipping, but I just use a good top coat and it's fine.

Thanks everyone! I’m checking them all out.

OPI Big Apple Red - this is a brighter red but I'm wearing it now and looks quite Christmassy.

Barry M have a breathable one called scarlet which is a beautiful shade of red. Very classic looking.

With a coat of seche vite on top, people assume I have gel nails.

I can't remember what it is called but mabelline do a lovely true red and it lasts for ages

I'm cool toned and bought a Max Factor red yesterday,the two step one with the top coat but I used my No7 top coat. Look on Amazon as it's 4 quid cheaper!

I second Got the Blues for Red and Malaga Wine by OPI - I've repurchased several times, and am cool toned.
