  I'm usually sloppy with nail varnish and find them extremely hard to apply. I am in love with the pink shades from Barry M but again hard to apply the brush is way too thin and needs several coats.
  
  A nail polish I can't fault is the Rimmel Pro nail polish, it has a "mistake free applicator" I really wish all polishes had this brush it is amazing and it is actually hard to make a mistake. It does need two coats if you want a solid colour.

  Would agree with Barry M, they have loads of different funky colours and are reasonably priced. Boots no7 range is good too though quite expensive.
  
  I like the Gosh nail varnishes too, they sell them in superdrug

  Nails Inc all the way. Only discovered it in December when it was a free giveaway with Glamour magazine! Won't use anything else when doing my own nails now. If I go for a manicure at the salon, then OPI is the brand of choice.

  I use Barry M (www.barrym.com) and Models Own (www.modelsownit.com) - both of those can't be beaten for their range of colours.
  
  I use the Boots no7 top coat and base coats though - their top coat is really good. Much better than Barry M's is.

  OPI is the best in my opinion, I do like nails inc too though. Cheap nail varnishes really don't work for me, they chip off almost instantly.

  I'm loving No7 Speed Dry in Peach Glaze at the moment.

  Diamond Cosmetics are good, they're an American brand, the only place I know of to get them over here is a website called FlashyNails, they're about £3 a bottle.

  OPI and China Glaze all the way! Sally Hansen Nailgrowth Miracle as a top coat prolongs the wear even more.

  OPI are the best imo. They seem to have the best range of colours, and their nail care/treatments are good too.

  The Revlon ones are fantastic! Also, I love Essie, they have a brilliant range of pastels, is you like nude-ish nails.

  OPI, OPI, OPI.
  
  From Nail Envy to Avoplex to their amazing range of laquers (gotta love the names )
  
  I also use Barbara Daly's Goodbye Yellow, available in Tesco, for a great French manicure cheat with minimum hassle. People think I have had my nails professionally done when I use it.

  I'd like to use OPI varnishes but I'm sadly lacking in sufficient funds for them. So I use Boots' Natural Collection for now.

  I get most of my OPI laquers from E-Bay - they're a lot cheaper on there and they tend to have lots of fab discontinued colours as well. I have been after a colour that I saw at Christmas called Smitten With Mittens from the Holiday Wishes collection - it's a red shot through with gold glitter - but it was almost instantly discontinued and is now on E-Bay for £18 :eek:
  
  Their official UK website, Lena White, currently has an amazing offer on though - the Indulgent Pamper collection. The saving is fantastic for everything you're getting including three full size nail laquers and other treatments.
