These polishes are fast becoming a favourite off mine. I bought the colour hold em it's a gorgeous deep grape colour.
The shine is high definition and definitely provides a high end and well polished mani.
The Polish lasts me a good few days without any chips or peeling.
They have a high price but are well worth it as it is certainly high quality.
The brush is even better as it give a streak free finish
I started pairing this with the top coat as well and am loving it

I’m just going to start by saying “NO BASE OR TOP COAT NEEDED”, yippy you read right. Now isn’t that just great. Revlon must have had mums in mind when they launched the wonderful this nail polish range. I stumbled across this beautiful polish at a regular Revlon counter. Naturally with limited time as most of our lives are so busy and on the run, multiple coats of polish and waiting for it to try gets tricky. Imagine my enthusiasm… and this colour certainly stole my heart. I had to paint my entire nail just to check the coverage. I was impressed, like no kidding. You've got to love Revlon!!!!

I always enjoy trying out the gel look lines from brands, and I was excited to see Revlon's ones because I do love a Revlon polish. I picked one up on special at Dischem and I fell in love. The application was smooth and a dream, the drying time was very fast, the colours are vibrant and beautiful, the polish didn't leave streaks or bubbles and looked wonderful even without a top coat, and I must say that the polish lasts for quite a while. I have been asked on numerous occasions when wearing this polish which salon I see for my nails. Definitely give that professional, salon finish. Worth it!

This is by far my new favorite beauty must-have. I now do my nails at home and get salon-quality results. The colors are amazing, my personal favorite being the shade Hold 'em. It is similar to a rosy pink or mauve and looks like I spent hundreds on a manicure.
I do two coats of the color, waiting 5 minutes between coats, and apply a single coat of the Revlon Colorstay Gel Envy Diamond top coat to get the best results. It drys almost instantly. I usually go 2 or 3 weeks before needing to redo my nails.
I love how fast the Revlon Colorstay Gel Envy enamels dry and how long they last. Additionally the fact that the base coat is built into the enamel makes it that much more effective.
Would highly recommend to anyone who likes to have well kept nails all the time at a very reasonable price.

I have bought so many of this fabulous colours. I just love the names too. I am sure that I own at least 10 of these. They dry incredibly quick and last long. With the normal top coat they last even longer. I just purchase the diamond coat to see how much longer it would last then, I've heard it could make your nail polish last up to 3 weeks...but that remains to be seen...

Oh my gosh. I don't have enough words to describe my love for this product. Nothing else I have tried comes close to this. From the no streak formula to the glorious brush and Chip free pay off. This is a winner. I wrote a full review here on my blog. http://myfriendthinksimsupermomblog.co.za/independent-review-revlon-colorstay-gel-envy-polishes/#more-1335

I bought the color 'Checkmate' its a really beautiful nude color. The consistency of the polish is really nice as it applies smoothly and you dont need a lot of brush strokes for the color to apply properly .
I prefer a double coat as it leaves a nice enhanced effect .
Its not a cheap nail polish but worth paying for as it has a base coat in it and it has a great shine even without a top coat .

Revlon Colorstay Gel Envy Nail Enamel provides deep, rich colour with a single application. No need for second coats here, although they always help!
The polish took a long time to dry, as is to be expected of a polish with a gel-like texture. When it was dry, it had the slightly flexible texture of gel polish, although it didn't look nearly as good as a salon job. I blame my shaky hands for that one! :)
The polish is relatively long-lasting on its own, but it's virtually indestructible when used with the Revlon Colorstay Envy Diamond Top Coat. Be sure to buy them both! It's totally worth it.

This is one of the first nail polishes that lasted 10 days chipfree! I also love that it isn't a thick formula and applied beautifully. The brush is just perfect and offered a good coverage of each nail, being careful not to leave any gaps. My only issue is the price - I find it hard to buy the colour+magic top coat for R220... I can buy the Essence gel effects range and pair that up with ANY one of their colours. For that price, I can get close to 10 different colours. :/

Revlon ColourStay Gel Envy Nail Polishes are amazing.They come in a multitude of shades,so there is a shade for every season,every occasssion and everyone.I switch up my nail colour on a weekly basis because by day 4 my nails start chipping,but I find my self rocking my Revlon Colourstay Gel Envy manicure and/or pedicure longer.I find it quite quick to dry with a shiny finish that doesnt turn dull quickly.The only downside of this nail polish is the price tag,at R110,but hey,I say its totally worth it.

I bought 3 of these at R110 each simply because the idea of doing my own nails n achieving salon type results without waiting n fiddling with money to pay after having them done appeals to me.
I bought one in pink,purple and blue.they are solid colours without any pearlescence and look incredible on short nails.
Although one coat is definitely enough i applied two out of habit and a topcoat.
I loved the glossy tidy at home nails i achieved.however i was surprised 15 minutes later to discover that the paint has shifted n had an imprint in it.
Clearly this paint needs just one coat, quick dry and a good 30 min or so to set.
Its a learning curve n that hasnt put me off this fabulous range.

Okay so I bought this product because I heard about it every time I switched on my television, saw it whenever I opened my Youtube. You name the place I saw it there. So naturally when Dischem pharmacy had a special I didn't think twice. I grabbed and I didn't look back. (I got another brand with it to compare...)
I could wait to get home and try it out!!
I followed the instructions that read to apply two coats and and then the gel...
my first impressions, lemme just say that I was chuffed by the color. Now before I invested in this product I read some other reviews and it was very mixed to say the least. So I got it to decide for myself
I busted the top open and went to town (my nails were clean I made sure).
So I'm applying the first coat and immediately I was confused, I'm not sure if there was too much nail polish on the brush or my nail bed is too small for the brush or something I don't know! As I keep brushing I kind of get the hang of applying it with the big old brush. I applied the gel finish and waited. It didn't take too long to dry so that was a major plus for me. Shap!
Day 1 nail polish still looks fresh
Day 2 more or less the same as day 1
Come day 4! Well this isn't awkward. The tips of my nails was starting to show... and then by the evening I noticed that there were chips in my nails. Okay so maybe I didn't apply it correctly. So I take it off and start again.
And again ! Things became awkward by day 3.
Needless to say it didn't live up the hype and I didn't get my money's worth.
But I will give it one major plus. When things started getting awkward it didn't look all busted and what not, it just looked like I haven't been to the salon in a while and my gel overlay was over laying.
I'll give it two and a half coconut oil bottles out of five.

Was very disappointed by this product as it is not at all cheap considering that it takes so long to dry and is quite sticky with no smooth gel finish at all.
