"You won't believe me, but it's Covergirl. And it's almost a week old!"
She couldn't remember the exact shade, but I was on a mission. This florist friend of mine whose manicures are always jealousy-inducing, had found an amazing shade of summer red, with the staying power of a salon manicure.
Here's the catch. Maybe my nails reject the concept of nail polish entirely, maybe my cuticles need some extra TLC (or a better base coat), or maybe I need to stop messing with a perfectly good manicure, but for some reason the Covergirl polish on its own wouldn't commit to my fingertips. I loved everything about it, including how fast the formula dried (two coats, five minutes), but I needed a way to make it hang around longer.
Enter Revlon's Colorstay Gel Envy Diamond top coat. Part of a newly-released gel set from Revlon, this top coat doesn't require a light to set. Obviously, the gel formula is meant to work in coordination with the other gel-themed items in their collection, but I noticed a significantly longer wear time when the color was coated with this baby.
And there you have it! Happy manicuring!
