Rimmel - 315 Ready, Aim, Paint!

Sneaking off to the makeup aisle last time I was in ASDA, I spotted this polish and realised I didn't have a true red creme, non-shimmer polish - I know, it's a shocking absence of a fundamental shade - so I grabbed a bottle of Rimmel 60 Seconds - Ready, Aim, Paint! to fill the gap.

Rimmel 60 seconds polish - Ready, Aim, Paint!

This is a lovely red creme which actually looks nice against my skintone. Coverage is good and it could be a one-coater but it's hard to work with. You have to be quick at doing each nail because it goes tacky and starts to drag in about 6 seconds, a side effect of its fast-dry formula. The brush is wide and easy to use, which helps a bit.

The application issues are probably my poor technique! For £2.48 I can put up with slightly trickier application but I know this would bug some people. Each coat dried within the 60 seconds advertised. All pictures are 2 coats, with Orly Bonder as a basecoat and no topcoat (I was adding glitter afterwards). Cleanup was a bit of a nightmare (pink cuticles, what joy) and I'm pretty sure this is a stainer, so basecoat those nails!

What do you think? Are you prepared to overlook trickier polishes if they cost less?

    I think there are polishes with good formula that cost a little and expensive polishes with formula problems :D So... if the shade is right I can live with most of the formulas. I prefere the good formulas of course!

      Augh, expensive polishes with formula problems make me so sad! I completely agree :D

    This color looks great on you. This is a perfect true red shade. I am willing to over look a difficult formula if it is a gorgeous color no matter the cost. I just did a mani using Orly Androgynie. The formula is the absolute pits, but it is a seriously gorgeous polish and NOT cheap. I will be hanging on to that one!

      Thank you! I have to be careful with orange-toned reds because they don't suit me at all.

      I got Androgynie as part of a set from TKMaxx last week and it's GORGEOUS!

    Looks lovely against your skintone, ugh shame about the formula, that's why I prefer more expensive polishes as you almost always get a perfect formula :)

    You found a set of orly in TKmaxx? All mine ever has is w7 :(

      Thank you :) it's not too bad, but compared to some nicer formulas I had a bit of an 'oh drag, right, ok' moment.

      I did! It's the first time I've ever gone in to look and I was so pleased. Mine had Essie, Color Club, W7, Sally Hansen (nailcare rather than colours though), and a few 3-packs of Orly. Will pop in when I can from now on!
