    Default Can you recommend a TRUE RED nail polish?

    I'm not a nail polish person but I need to find a true red nail polish color for my daughter.

    Please help!!

    I was going to suggest this one too. It's definitely a red. True red is like OPI Big Apple Red. That's a true red I think. But the other looks pretty red on me and I am on the fairer side.

    I'm Not Really a Waitress is more of a berry red and honestly I don't see all of the hype, but I much prefer OPI's Chick Flick Cherry (not sure if this I still sold though), Deborah Lippmann's It's Raining Men (they was a banner for $10 off your purchase when I opened up the page and IMHO I think this brand is 1000x better than OPI), or OPI's Big Apple Red, but OPI is just so easy to get. Also China Glaze makes some great polish as well and IMHO it comparable (if not better) to OPI and a few $ less. China Glazes' Hey Sailor might work as well.

    I love Essie's "Scarlett O'Hara". It's a nice deep red with a little sparkle and it looks nice on those with very fair skin.
