Most nail enamels look glossy on day one, then chip, dull and fade within a couple of days. Revlon ColorStay Longwear Nail Enamel is engineered to keep that just‑painted, high-shine finish looking fresh for up to 11 days when used with the complementary base and top coat. You get salon-level results with the ease of an at-home manicure.

A nitrocellulose base combines with modern acrylate and urethane copolymers to create a durable yet flexible film that adheres tightly to the nail. Plasticisers such as acetyl tributyl citrate help prevent the film from becoming brittle, supporting chip resistance. Light-diffusing minerals and high-grade pigments contribute to rich colour payoff and a glossy, reflective finish.

The fluid texture glides on smoothly, levelling out to an even, streak-free layer that dries quickly. Once set, the finish feels lightweight yet resilient, with a glass-like shine that resists everyday knocks. Wear stays comfortable, with less tendency to crack or flake thanks to the flexible film technology.

For best results, pair this enamel with a dedicated base coat and top coat from the same range. Apply in thin, controlled layers, allowing each coat to dry before the next. This builds depth, enhances shine and maximises wear time while keeping the finish smooth and professional-looking.

Advanced film-forming polymers create a flexible, chip-resistant shield on the nail surface.Quick-evaporating solvents help colour set faster to reduce smudging during application.Light-reflecting particles support a glossy, high-shine finish that resists dullness over time.Balanced viscosity allows controlled application that self-levels for a smooth, streak-free look.

For extended wear, apply over Revlon ColorStay base coat to improve adhesion and finish with Revlon ColorStay top coat to seal in shine. This three-step system is designed to work together to optimise durability, gloss and resistance to everyday wear.

A longwear, high-shine nail enamel that delivers salon-level colour, smoothness and chip resistance in an easy at-home routine.

• Step 1. Start with clean, dry nails, removing any old polish and residue with a non-oily remover.
• Step 2. Apply a thin layer of Revlon ColorStay base coat to each nail and allow it to dry completely.
• Step 3. Apply a thin first coat of Revlon ColorStay Longwear Nail Enamel, starting from the centre of the nail and sweeping outwards.
• Step 4. Allow the first coat to dry, then apply a second thin coat for even, saturated coverage.
• Step 5. Seal with Revlon ColorStay top coat, capping the free edge of each nail to help lock in colour.
• Step 6. Allow nails to dry fully before using your hands for tasks that may dent or smudge the finish.

Pro Tips

• Roll the bottle gently between your palms instead of shaking to minimise air bubbles.
• Keep coats thin; multiple light layers are more durable and faster-drying than one thick coat.
• Avoid soaking hands in water immediately before application, as this can affect adhesion and wear.
• Reapply a thin layer of top coat every few days to refresh shine and reinforce chip resistance.
