    I have about ten different colors of Xtreme Wear. This nail polish goes on smoothly and dries rather quickly. Most colors only need one or two coats, which is really convenient when you're on the go! It stays on for about three days (if you're not doing dishes) and comes in a huge variety of color, which is great for someone like me who changes their nail color all the time. It's a great buy.

    I got 3 different colours in the specific line but this one is my absolute favorite. It goes on very smooth and looks really high end on your hands. It stays put for 4-5 days and all it needs is a fresh top coat after day 3 to last even longer. You could get away with doing just one generous coat and not need a second one, but doing 2 intensifies the colour which I like.
    Cons - it doesn't have the same brush as the Insta-Dry line does which I really love.

    *these are not my nails, I googled the image for the right colour*

    A great product for a great price! By no means are you getting the best polish on the market but I would definitely say you are getting a high quality product and you are paying an extremely reasonable price for it! I love that these polishes come in a wide variety of colours and I love to wear them on my toes! I find they last a fair amount of time and i feel as if i get my moneys worth!

    I grabbed a bunch of these at a $1 sale so I feel rather bad writing a middling review, but while these are amazing cheap colours, keep in mind the quality is about right for the price too.

    I'm currently wearing Cherry Red but also own Crushed and another dark Blue velvet colour (the label wore off!) these are only 'interim' nails. The polish is quite thick and I find the brush tends to glob more often than not. With a great base and topcoat this nail polish is improved but I find it's EAAASILY chipped. So the actual polish itself isn't very effective, only with other, more expensive top and basecoats.

    So for $1 I can't REALLY complain, if only for the variety of colours, but don't expect these to last longer than a weekend.

    Ok, since then I've purchased a bunch more of this brand and have to say my initial comments were a bit harsh. I've used this more than my OPI as of late because I like the precision of the brushes and how they don't gunk up on the bottle. With a good top coat, these can last just as long as China Glaze or OPI. I'd avoid the opaque colours though, a solid colour will only need 2 coats but a white or beige will require at least 3.

    The colour, shine and lasting ability is amazing when you consider that you're basically paying $2 for it. It has a ton of gorgeous colours, dries average, chips average (on me). On my toes it'll last until my nails grow out (crazy, huh?) but on my hands it lasts a few days at most. Then again I have very chippy hands! All in all I would highly recommend this to everyone.

    I absolutely adore these nail polishes! I buy one or two of them every single time i go into walmart or anywhere else that i see them. I just recently picked up "Blue me away" which is a gorgeous bright sky blue color. I've had it on my nails ever since i picked it up. I also picked up the color "Deep purple" which is just a darker purple with sort of a pinkish undertone to it. These polishes apply really well and i can only do one coat and they still look great! For the price, these are definitely one of the best affordable polishes you can get!

    I have this nail polish in Grey Area and I love it. It's a dark grey colour with just a hint of a purple tone to it when it's in the sun. It promises to last 7 days without chipping and I'd say it comes pretty close. On my toes it lasts 2 weeks easily, but on my fingers I'm lucky to get 5 days out of it. It is really shiny and makes my nails feel really strong when it's on though. It doesn't take too long to dry, so I never find myself wrecking it before I head out the door (which is always a good thing).

    These nail polishes are amazing! The are super affordable so I went ahead and got every colour I craved. The payoff is phenomenal! Some shades, like the yellow or orange might need a second layer to get a true opaque even colour, but it dries up fast and I did not experience any clumps. It lasts forever. Both on my toes and nails I got 5 days of chip free wear. It removes easily, which is another plus for me.
    I love the colour range, they have efverything from shiny, to matte or metallic.

    I great low price option. They have a great vibrant color selection is goes on streak free and opaque in two coats. Wear time is pretty average but I use a base coat and top coat which extends wear time.

    La couleur est manifique! Un beau bleu océan. Mais il est un peu transparent. Je mets un blanc en dessous pour faire ressortir la couleur ou bien je mets plusieurs couches seul, dépendant de l'effet que je veux!
