love essie and opi. i use opi's rich colours as it has the most pigment. i use essie for the natural colours. my fav french maincure is madamoiselle with either blanc (very white) or marshmellow (pale white and most natural looking) or with opi's it's my birthday (a metallic silver). madamoiselle with the silver opi is very neutral by hip while the other two are very clean and elegant.
to make it durable i do a coat of witch craft nail hardener as a basecoat. if using marshmellow or opi, two coats of the madamoiselle. if using the blanc, one coat of madamoiselle.
then paint the tips, one or two coats of blanc whereas 3 coats of the other two. with blanc paint a coat of madamoiselle over it.
top with the wichcraft nail hardener. this keeps nails strong, healty and the colour stays on at least a week.
the key is a base and top coat and making sure the colour dries completely before adding the next coat. you can tell this by tapping your nails together, if it is dry it will not stick and be completely hard,

OPI is my brand of choice. A bit more pricey, but you get what you pay for. It cannot be found in retail stores though, go someplace where they do professional manicures or on-line.

I find that Essie is the best, it's seems to last the longest..no chips. It's about $7 a bottle and you can find at most beauty supply stores.
