Okay, so I've been following the beauty blogs and a lot of people actually like these Nail Polish Strips by Sally Hansen. But I've got to be honest here. I absolutely hate them.
I was really excited when I originally found them and couldn't wait to try them out! I went for a retro flower print, which looked adorable on the box.
Once I actually tried putting the nail strips on (following all of the directions very carefully), I found that they literally looked like stickers on my nails. And they peeled off immediately. The quality was horrible. I was so disappointed! I'm usually a huge fan of all Sally Hansen products, so I really thought these would be incredible. And after reading some of my other fave beauty blogs, I'm a bit confused. Maybe my nails aren't great or strong enough for the strips, but I really don't think that's the case.
For $10, you get enough strips to do one manicure. For that price, you could basically go to a salon and get a real manicure, which I'd much prefer. I do love all the patterns and hate that the strips actually are this awful!
My suggestion? Save your $10 and buy something worthwhile like OPI's new Black Shatter polish (available at most drugstores and salons for around $8). The look is much more fabulous and doesn't look like children's stickers. Plus it lasts virtually forever.
You've been warned. That is all.
