Out of the 12 shades, I got 2: 558 Wild-Er-Ness and 300 Glaston-Berry

Wild-Er-Ness is a lovely, blue-toned lavender. It's bright, but not too bold. Flirty, but not too loud. In short, this is the perfect pa-girl shade for summer!

Glaston-Berry is your best bet if you want a bold, bright tips but still not up for wearing reds.

I've already tried a Rimmel nail polish before and just like before, these babies didn't disappoint. Except of course that again, it didn't live up to its claim of being chip-free for 10 days on me. Though I didn't try wearing it for that long, I already saw some chipping on the 4th day. But do take note that I wash my hands a lot, do house chores and I do a lot of typing at work.

What I really like about these nail polishes is that it really dries up fast! I think it dries in less than a minute. This is perfect for ladies on the go. The finish is so shiny, you don't even need a separate glossy top coat. It comes with a wide brush that's a bit rounded at the bottom, that those with tiny nails would find too wide (me included) but it does help in covering the entire nail in just a few strokes.

I am not sure with the other shades these two shades have amazing pigmentation, I get full opacity in just two layers.

The price is affordable (just don't start converting, my fellow kabayans!) so, if you want to start building a nail polish collection, check out these babies from your nearest Rimmel counters.
