Sally Hansen Salon Effects Real Nail Polish Strips Review

Crowd Surfer

This is going to be a short one. These are my overall thoughts on Sally Hansen's Salon Effects Real Nail Polish Strips. I wanted to share because I hemmed and hawed over whether I should purchase these and in the end justified it because I could at least share my experience.

I found it initially hard to stick the nail polish strips on. After the first couple of nails I was able to manipulate the strips more efficiently. I believe this is something that just has to be learned by working with them. I found that once I had trimmed down the stickers to fit my nails they were much more manageable.

I am by no means an expert on nails but I thought that I did a fairly good job with only a few bumps and blemishes.  Note the bubble on the my pinky finger and thumb. They weren't as slick as it looked on the packaging, but then again, what is?

For me the strips only lasted a few days (3-4). Granted I am a bit rougher on my hands than most.

In sum they are worth a try but I wouldn't suggest them if you work with your hands as they won't last the 10 days as the package suggests.
