Sally Hansen Salon Manicure Cuticle Eraser + Balm

I have a review today on Sally Hansen Salon Manicure Cuticle Eraser + Balm. I bought this purely because it was swirly and green. Way to bait me in Sally Hansen, you sneaky devil! 

What it claims...

Combination remover and creme quickly eliminates excess, ragged cuticles & hangnails as it conditions nails and cuticles. The result is instantly, healthy, beautiful, conditioned cuticles that look up to 80% smoother. 

2-in-1 formula with white tea & cucumber gently & quickly loosen & exfoliates stubborn, overgrown cuticles while leaving skin feeling deeply moisturized.

Helps prevent hangnails and promotes healthy nail growth.

Directions from Sally Hansen website

Massage a small amount into cuticles until completely absorbed. Use a cuticle pusher, if needed to help further loosen hard to remove cuticles. Use daily for maximum benefits. Wash hands before applying polish. 

So...I really enjoy this stuff. It has a mild cucumber smell. It does a great job at moisturizing. I hate when certain moisturizers make my hands/nails feel like I dipped them in oil. Not with this! It's creamy and massages into the skin quickly. My cuticles have this nice clean feeling afterwards. I massage the balm into my cuticles and then I use a cuticle pusher. I then massage any excess product back into my cuticles. It is good to use everyday, quick and effective. One thing I really like is that it is a cuticle remover but it is not harsh. I've used some products that dry my nails out. I'll definitely purchase this again. 

Hope you enjoyed.

Until next time,

Pretty and Polished Jawbreaker

While I was at work today I had 5 people grab my hand...all because of this baby below!
Pretty and Polished Jawbreak is a white base with multi-colored glitter. I'm speechless...It's hard to describe how perfect this polish is. This is 3 coats topped with Sally Hansen Inta-Dry (check out the review HERE). Even without the top coat this polished dried pretty fast.

Pretty and Polished has an Etsy store which you can check out HERE. It is currently open with some stock. It does close from time to time so she can get caught up or make some more polish. So patience is key:)

Uhhhh.........(Trying to lift jaw off the floor)!

Today, I received some nail mail from the lovely Llarowe. My Lynnderella's have arrived! Of course I had to change my mani right away. 

Essie Grow Faster base coat- 1 coat

OPI Suzi Skis In The Pyrenees Suede- 2 coats

Lynnderella Mercury's Rainbow- 2coats

All this was topped with Glitter Tamer and Sally Hansen Diamond Flash. 

I just took a bunch of pictures in different lighting trying to capture everything that is going on in that bottle! These polishes are a work of art. Lynn is rocking it right now!

I Am Such A Nerd!!!!

Hey, remember on my last post when I said I really wanted to find Midnight Sky?! Um, yeah I had already bought it. Hence, why I am a nerd. It also made me realize that my collection is getting so big that I need to make an inventory list! I can't remember what I have and don't have anymore.

Onto the awesome Midnight Sky by Sally Hansen. It is a smoked out metallic grey base with some sparkly silver foil particles. I have similar shades to this but this is a standout for me. I think it's because of the darker base. It was opaque with two coats and I topped with SV. So far with all Sally Hansen Hard as Nails that I own, the formula is perfect.

I decided to amp up Midnight Sky a bit. I layered it with Confetti Ice Ice Baby. Can you see the blue, green, and a little purple? I must say that this was a good idea!

Halloween Came A Little Early

I picked up Pumpkin Spice by Sally Hansen when I saw it on a new display at my local Walgreens. Pumpkin Spice has a black base with small orange glitter. In the bottle this reminded me of China Glaze Ick-A-Body that came out last Halloween. Spice is not as dense as Ick-A-Body.

I actually layered this over Sally Hansen Black Out. I used one coat of that and two coats of Spice. Topped with SV (duh lol). I need to try out some other topcoats. 

I've been keeping my eye out for other Sally Hansen displays at more of my local Walgreens. I really want to try and find Midnight Sky.

Sally Hansen Xtreme Wear Teeny Greeny Bikini

So I'm going to start by saying that this is not a favorite of mine. I bought it a couple days ago at my local Walgreens and thought it looked cool in the bottle. Now remember this is my opinion and I know a ton of other people will like this color. It was very sheer. This is four coats topped with SV. It can be described as a minty green with some silver glass flecks. To me its a bit too frosty. I wanted to take it off as soon as I put it on (again sorry folks). It was a little shady today in my area so some pictures have some shadow. 

I think if it was a creme finish I would have liked it more. I will say it did dry fast. Since this is not a fav of mine I'm going to do a give-a-way because I know some people are having a hard time finding it. First one to comment saying they would like this color will win. Please include e-mails so I can contact you to let you know you won! 
P.S. This is my first give-a-way so good luck everyone.

Sally Hansen and Wet and Wild

I have a cute manicure I did yesterday. I used two coats of Sally Hansen Pronto Purple. This was actually one of the first polishes I owned. I then topped it off with one coat of Wet and Wild Party Of Five glitter. Of course I used Seche Vite as my top coat.

Sally Hansen Insta-Dri

I recently tried the Sally Hansen Insta-Dri anti-chip top coat. I must say that I'm pretty impressed and it was only 5.99. The instructions say to wait two minutes after applying your nail polish and then apply the top coat. In 30 seconds your polish is supposed to be dry. My polish was definitely dry. I don't know about you guys but I can't stand waiting for my nails to dry. 30 seconds later I lightly touched my nail and....wow no fingerprint mark. Even after washing my face and eating some food (rummaging in the kitchen), no marks were to be seen. Also, after a nights sleeps the polish did not smear. The only smudge was after I hit my hand on a door, and I hit it pretty hard. I wasn't mad, figured that would have happened without the topcoat. Another thing this product advertises is superior shine and chip resistance.



Hmmm what do you think about the shine? I think it looks pretty good. About the chipping. It started to chip after 24 hours only because I was giving myself a pedicure.

Do you like the color of my nails? It is China Glaze For Audrey, from a 2008 collection.



This is supposed to be similar to the Tiffany blue. I read because of copyright that China Glaze could not actually use the color. Oh well, it still rocks!! China Glaze has some great colors and most polishes have nail hardeners in them.

I decided to paint my thumb a different color.



This is Essence Pointbreak. It is a light gray color. Somewhat muted/pastel. I really like it. Until now I did not own a color like this.
