In the bottle this looks like a gorgeous shade of orange based red, but on my nails it looks like a shade of tomato red, with not so much orange still gorgeous though! This is a lovely red and I believe it would suit a wide variety of skin tones. It has a creme finish, and an excellent formula. Two coats is all you need to reach full opacity. It applies very easily and does not apply with patches or streaks. The formula is nice and creamy. It dries quickly and to a shiny finish. I get very good wear time from this polish, 5 days when paired with base and top coat even when I was heavy on my hands. I would recommend this to anyone who would like to find a good red shade.
