LOVE this red! This is my HG bright red. I also have OPI's Big Apple Red, but I actually enjoy the way this looks a lot more- brighter and more opaque. Formula is great, you could get away with one coat if you wanted, but I always do two. Awesome bright red creme that looks great in any season!

This red loves me. In my opinion, this puts OPI's Big Apple Red to shame. Beautiful shade, and applies like a dream!!

This is a beautiful clear red (no milkiness at all). Like others have said, it's a classic red that is a go-to when you just need red. Somehow, though, it stands out when other reds don't. Perfect Christmas or Valentine's Day red. I have many Opi shades, and this one applies beautifully and evenly- 2 coats does it.

This is the BEST RED period. Looks so nice on. Classy and compliments any skin tone. Not to mention that it goes on so smooth and even. I cannot use Essie it peels right off and goes on streaky. OPI polishes are the best.

This is my favorite red cream. It is a bright, creamy red that compliments my NC20 skin and is perfect in any season.

Like all OPI polishes, the packaging is fantastic with the wide, flat OPI brush. This polish probably has my favorite formula out of all of my OPI's because it is absolutely flawless. I can usually get away with one coat and it dries super fast. The color doesn't stain my nails and wears well.

It was part of the Swiss Collection in '10 so it's probably not in stores anymore but if you happen to come across this polish, buy it- you won't be dissapointed.

Mamma Mia! It's actually not that easy to find the perfect red creme. For a warm red creme, this is it..... wish I could find one just like this only slightly darker/cooler for winter.

I love this color! I was looking for a red color, but not dark or deep. Just a bright red that would perk me up for spring. This is perfect. I have NC35 skintone, but kind of on the pale side right now due to winter and this polish looks perfect on my skin tone. I think it's a versatile color and would look great on most people.

I find with all OPI polishes if you really look and shop around you can find it very affordably prices. I believe in having a red as a staple in any nail polish collection now matter how small or big... and this one is fantastic. I was very impressed with the results after the first coat..... will buy again for sure!!!!!

This color came out with the Swiss collection for fall 2010. This color is a gorgeous blue red that is almost pin up like. The consistency is great I've had my bottle for a year and it's still smooth and easy to apply. I'm NC55 for reference.

Now I love me some red polish and I have very many to choose from. But I've got to say, this one is probably at the top of my list! I usually don't wear colours more than once within 3 months, but I've already worn this colour twice within 1 month. Such a great red, and I've gotten compliments from everyone! Would definately stock up on this one!

One of the best red creams I have! I can't tell you how amazingly easy this polish applied! Like others have said, it is opaque in one coat, but I went ahead and put on two, because I'd like for this to last at least a week, followed by Seche Vite top coat.

I hope to find more creams like this, because I REALLY like the finish.

I feel like this could be worn year round, though it is a lovely bright red.

Highly recommend and would definitely purchase again!

I am about NC50 so this is a great red if your around that complexion. This red is from the Swiss collection. It's not to warm or cool just right for many skintones. It's bright however and not for the faint of heart. This shade helped me break into red polish territory.

Opi has beyond managed to impress me yet again!This is an absolutely amazing,bright-ish red color.My sister got it in the Opi Little Black Dress-Up duo (which also came with You Lucerne-tainly Look Marvelous)from a gift exchange.You can get the duo at Ulta for $10,which is an amazing deal,considering that alone,they're originally $8.50!My sister put this on her fingernails yesterday,and as usual with Opi's,the application was perfectly flawless!No streaking or cuticle pooling,and it was an opaque,bright-ish red with one coat!it also dried relatively fast,and the color looks great with our warm,tan skin.Highly recommended,and this would also look really cool with some sparkle nailpolish on top!

Favorite red I own!! It's technically a classic red, yes, but the smoothness that it applies with (absolutely no streaking whatsoever) and the amount of pigment makes it fantastic to have on your nails. I recently took off this colour and put on a dark green in OPI and it bothered me so much that I took it off and replaced it for the red again! It makes me look happy to look down and see such a vibrant, brilliant shade. The perfect shade - doesn't look tacky, not too deep, just bright and beautiful.

Wowza, what a red! Application is smooth and so, so flawless; the color is pretty much opaque in ONE coat! I don't think this is a particularly unique color, but something about it just grabs your attention! This looks great on my yellow-toned medium skin color. I think this would look great in all seasons but it really pops on your hands in the winter. I think I'm gonna use it on my toes come summer. :) As with most OPI polishes, it lasted a long time without chipping.

This is an extremely gorgeous colour; it's ideal if you're going to go to a job interview only if it's for a creative post of course!

Overall, it's got the same quality as most OPI polishes and it's an amazing red.

Being somewhat of a nail polish addict, it was actually quite shocking that I didn't actually have a creme true red in my collection (I am more attracted to glittery red polishes). Color So Hot It Berns is a classic red colour, which is also not unique in any way. However, when I purchased this polish I was not looking for a "unique colour" but rather a staple classic red and that's exactly what I got. The application is very smooth - I always put on 2 coats and after the 2 coats I had perfect coverage. The polish also wore very well, I only started to get minimal chips after a few days. Removal took a little more effort than normal. If you are in the market for a classic red nail polish that has no shimmer this is a great option.

ALL PROS: Gorgeous cool, and somewhat light red. Typical OPI quality. Easy to apply. Lasts a long time.
