Through the years, I have tried many things to get my nails looking salon perfect. I originally started with acrylic nails. The nail polish would stay on with out chipping and was glossy as well. The up keep on this was very costly with the way my nails grew. To save money, I took them off. I was horrified at how the acrylic nails had weakened my once beautiful natural nails. I decided right then to take care of my natural nails. This started my quest for the perfect nail polish to use on natural nails.
Not all nail polishes were created equal when applied to natural nails. Many would take too many coats to properly cover the nail. This would lead to them not drying correctly and getting marked up. Other nail polishes dried to a dull finish. No matter how many top coats I applied t could not attain the salon quality glossy finish I desired. The most important problem that needed to be solved was the one of the nail polish chipping. Many polishes do not chip when applied to artificial nails. I found this not to be true for the world of natural nails. Every nail polish I would try chipped horribly in one to two days max. What is a girl to do? I felt like I was doomed to spend every evening touching up my nails. Then I found the answer to my prayers.
It sat there in my cosmetic department of my local drugstore in an unassuming 2-bottle pack. The perfect nail polish for natural nails is Revlon Colorstay Nail Polish. From the first brush stroke onto my nail, I knew I was onto something. The color went on perfectly with one coat. I did, however, follow the package instructions and applied a second coat. The color I had tried, Forever Scarlet, dried perfectly. I then applied the top coat that was included in the package. The finished result was beautiful glossy red nails. I had found success. Yet there was still one major test that remained for this nail polish. Would it last? At the time, I was working in a retail-clothing store. My natural nails spent 8 hours a day being banged and scraped against metal racks and hangers. It was a week before I noticed any chips that I would have to fix. I was convinced. Revlon Colorstay Nail Polish is the best nail polish to use on natural nails.
I continue to use this nail polish to this day. I have tried many of their great colors, but always come back to my favorite, Forever Scarlet. Many women, who have complimented me on my perfectly manicured nails, were shocked to learn that they were my natural nails. I shared my secret with them. Now you know the secret of the best nail polish to use on natural nails.
