and if so, what brand and shade?

Sick of buying red that look different on to how they seem in the bottle!

Currently using Boots 17 Baked Cherry which is quite nice but looks more pillar box red on than deep pinky red n the bottle.

thanks- was thinking about the Opi and Picadilly Circus too!

Anyone got Opi Red, out of interest?

I Got The Blues for Red looks a bit purply like Opi Bastille My Heart...? which I already have.

No.7 Coral Kiss, speed dry. Good, slightly, orangy red.

I wear it but only on my toe nails. I've got a Jessica one but not sure what shade it is. I really like their nail polishes.

Meglet · 29/05/2010 10:34

..yes, toe nails only for me.

LouMacca · 29/05/2010 10:47

Same as above. Love red nail varnish but only on my toes. I use Rimmel Pro with the maxi brush in Ruby Me, its fab.......

I've got OPI Red. It's my favourite. Best red I've ever had. Very flattering tone, and I can't explain why, but it just is!

mangoandlime · 29/05/2010 11:11

Depends if you prefer a bluey red or a yellowy one really. I love a Clinique one I've had for ages called True Red, I think.

Biscuitbreaker · 29/05/2010 11:33

OPI - all their reds are great.
I like Chick flick cherry (creme cherry-red), Quarter of a Cent-Cherry (similar, but darker) Thrill of Brazil (1950s pin-up red) and I'm Not Really A Waitress (shimmer red). All same as bottle with 2-3 coats.
