If you're a fan of red nail polish, you know full well that there's no such thing as just one universal red shade. There's blue-based reds, crisp apple reds, orange-toned reds, and, you know, approximately a zillion more. And though there's absolutely nothing wrong with heading to your nearest drugstore and standing in front of the nail-polish racks for 15 minutes, wondering which red nail polish is actually pretty, or opaque, or long-lasting, I'm not about that life. I'm lazy, and I want fast reviews and results. And to enable anyone like me, I handpicked the 13 best red nail polishes to swipe on ASAP, no matter your red preferences.
