Nail varnish

Can anyone recommend a good nail varnish for toes one that actually stays on & doesn't come off when you go from flip flops into heels, I've always used Revlon in the past but it doesn't seem to be the same anymore, & I hate to see chipped varnish?

That's a very good question, I have the same trouble myself.  I have just bought a Revlon one because the others didn't work.  I have all week this week without shoes so wont be able to test it until next week.

Can recommend Sally Hansen Diamond Strength ....it stays put for ages ....

Just noticed they are advertising a new one called complete salon manicure ....there are some lovely colours too....might be worth a try ..........

So are mine mercs, my big toes anyway, they seem to grow sideways, thanks to wearing court shoes in my younger days, and they are really thick, thanks to psoriasis, ugly, but they do look better with polish thankfully,

OPI varnish is good.

Must agree, OPI is lovely.  I use OPI topcoat on both hands and feet and the varnish stays on much much longer. I think a good quality topcoat is the answer to long stay varnish.  Gel varnish can be very hard to remove if you need to change the colour .

Millielilac I found with the Sally H brand it tended to peel rather than chip

 

However the best of the best HAS to be Revlon Quick Dry Top Coat.

 

I use it all the time and my toenails grow out rather than the polish chip off it's that long lasting!

 

I'd recommend it in that it means you can use any colour/make you like and it then just goes on top Woman Wink

I like the Rimmel 30 second professional one, also love the nice flat brush with it, makes applying so much easier

OPI all the way.  On fingers and toes.  I'm wearing one on my hands and have touched it up and recoated after slogging in the garden.  Been on 2 weeks, you can see the growth, LOL.  If you buy it direct, they often have 3 for2 and the like.

I find Avon diamond nailwear pro+ great and certainly lasts on my finger nails and I do an awful lot of typing for work then when I get home they are in and out of hot water with the endless rounds of dirty dishes/mugs
