I have this in Robust Red...it looks GREAT when I put it on. It does chip just a little bit in the first day or so...no 10-day wear here. However, it stays super glossy until I take it off, and I LOVE that. For a drugstore brand, this is pretty decent. I'm considering trying MAC nail polish because there are a couple of colors that look terrific (at least online), but until I do, I'm going to stick with this stuff.

Moonsista's description of the color is right on: true red, no shimmer. It is gorgeous. First off, I never do a pedicure without a top coat and I dont think any color would last on toenails without it. It's not too spendy, and it's a beautiful color--and color is the reason I buy all of my polishes.

The color I bought was Berry Persistent. I absoultly adored the color. Its a dark red with a hint of Gold. I painted my nail Miday, but that evening my nails were already chipped. By the next day, the polish was half off my nails. Bad, Bad, Bad!

Up to 10 days of wear, huh? I don't think so! I got about 3 days of wear with no top coat. This is normally $4.99 at my local drugstores, which is about $1 more expensive than the average nail color. Why? It's nothing special. OPI, Nicole and Revlon Always On are way better options! I also think that the shade selection is somewhat boring.


Robust Red is a non-shimmery, blood red. It's a blue-toned, classic red. It's a beautiful color, but this nail color just doesn't come close to lasting 10 days!
