Default Specific nail polish inquiry

I frequently need to be able to put on a quick coat of polish and be ready to go out the door shortly afterward. Going through the hourlong process of a base coat, two color coats and a clear coat on top is simply not in the cards. So...any suggestions for a brand of polish that:

1. Dries relatively fast
2. Relatively saturated/opaque colors (I don't like sheer or clear tints)
3. Looks good with a single coat
4. Is reasonably durable as a single coat

Extra credit for color suggestions for very fair skin.

Thanks!
Erica

PS: I currently use MAC nail polish, usually in the shades "Abstract" and "Rocker". They're ok but not great. Specifically they only look so-so as a single coat, and they are not at all durable And I am mystified why they insist on using shade names that tell you nothing about the polish itself...
