Does This Lacquer Pen Nail It?

Nicole by OPI's Nic's Sticks ($7) supposedly dry in one minute and stay on a really long time. All you need to do is gently shake the nail polish pen, pump it until color appears in the brush, and apply. Here's what our Style staffers thought of the mani tool.

Pros: The gorgeous red color dried really fast and was so easy to apply.
Cons: The bristles should be finer for a more precise application.
—Catrina D., Production

Pros: For a girl who doesn’t wear nail polish ever, I actually found it easy to put on—and I like to think that it livened up my style.
Cons: I used the silver color, which came off pretty quickly, but maybe one of the darker colors wouldn’t do the same.
—Natalie A., Editorial

Pros: I love it! It reminds me of when I used to color my nails with markers as a kid. It's very glossy and dries quickly. You can keep it in your purse for quick fixes if you chip or scratch the polish.
Cons: Chips and scratches occur easily.

Botton Line: Nicole by OPI's Nic's Sticks make painting your nails a piece of cake, which is important since the lacquer has to be touched up—a lot.
