Formula on these is on the runny side. The brush is nice, though it’s a bit long and I can never get just the right amount of polish on it. I always get either too much on the brush or too little. All the shades that I have are very well pigmented. And what I love about American Apparel polishes is, they dry very fast.

What do you think about the American Apparel polishes? Do you like them? Which color is your favorite?
