Great shade, much more of a true red than most dark red nail colours I've seen/tried. Doesn't look quite as dark on me as it does in the photos on here, but my skin is a fair bit darker than the model's, so that may be why. Seems to last well on the nails. I find the shape of the brush pretty good (I prefer a wider flat brush so this is nice for me) but something about the formula seems a bit too thick/sticky, so application can be a bit awkward and streaky. Make sure your first coat is 100% dry before applying a second!
