CC Beauty Live: Quick & Dirty Review-Sally Hansen Salon Effects

Oh manicures, we love you.  But why do you smudge when I’m reaching for my keys in my bag?  Or chip after I clean my dishes in the sink?  I think we need to talk.

Manicures are great!  Who doesn’t love getting their hands massaged and painted by a stranger?  I personally prefer to do my own nails, but that’s because my roommate turned me into a nail polish hoarder (hey Kel!).  While I can do my nails in about 10 minutes, I know a lot of people struggle.  Especially when painting your dominant hand with your non-dominant one.  Fortunately there are products like Sally Hansen’s Salon Effects nail strips that might be able to save you some trouble.

I was sent these strips in zebra stripes and a butterfly print, and I immediately thought of the one finger nail trend that’s been happening lately.  I have to say I was pleasantly surprised.  I was pretty skeptical about these things, but it’s been almost a week and they haven’t chipped, smudged, or budged.  It does take some practice and patience since the nail shapes aren’t really accurate.  You have to take the time to trim them once you put them on, which was kind of a pain.  I think I’ll be using them more for fun trends like my one nail, but if you aren’t good with nail polish or you don’t have a lot of time, then you should try this one out!
