My first love is Chanel. OPI is good too for cheaper polishes that have decent wear and I love color choices. I just started Essie and so far I love them. I also just tried out my first Zoya's and the application is great but the wear sucks big time on my nails. I like Lancome also.

Waiting on my first shipment of Rescue Beauty Lounge from the sale.
 
So far, from the brands I've tried, I would have to say my favourites are:

China Glaze
Sephora by OPI
Jessica

Honourable mentions to Rimmel and Barry M too, although the latter dries much slower than the others and its annoying me more now that I have a larger range of pilishes to compare it to :sad:
 
My absolute favorites are Rimmel Lasting Finish Pro and Sally Hansen Complete Salon Manicure. I love the brush on these, and they last forever on me! I can get a week with these, and I'd never been able to go 3 days without a chip before. I won't buy anything else anymore. I still like OPI, too, but it's a distant 3rd.
 
China Glaze, OPI, Zoya, and Essie are my go-to nail polish brands. They're excellent: great range of colors with smooth application. Orly and Sephora by OPI are also nice, Chanel and NARS too!
 
I love Chi Chi and Slly Hansen but my favorite by far is Rimmel lycra Pro. Lovely colors,stays put for days and the brush makes it so easy to apply its absolutely failproof. Am I the only one whos not keen on Essie? I tried Ballet Slippers and found it really streaky
:-s
 
I love Sinful, because they're very cheap and a great selection of colors.

My absolute favorite is the Sally Hansen Insta-Dri and Complete Salon Manicure lines. Most only require one or two coats, they dry quickly and the brush pretty much gives me professional looking results.

I'm starting to get into Essie and China Glaze though I'm not crazy about their brushes.

I don't like the brush for CHI either but their polish stays on my nails really well.
