Sally Hansen Salon Effects Real Nail Polish Strips

Hey my loves!
I am always searching for new and cool products and this one is prettttttttttttttty cool!  The Sally Hansen Salon Effects Real Nail Polish Strips are super easy and fun.  All you have to do is match up the polish strip with the nail that fits the best (16 strips, 2 strips of each size) and then peel and stick!  It is ACTUALLY that easy.  I cannot paint my nails to save my life.  More ends up on my elbows than my nails.  So when I discovered this I thought it would be a really cool way to have funky nails (that are supposed to last up to 10 days... mine lasted more like 7, but I'm hard on my nails)!

They have such cool designs, the other day I used the Cheetah polish strips, I had about 10 people stop me in the mall to ask where I'd had my nails done.  They were so shocked to hear I did it myself with Sally Hansen Salon Effects Real Nail Polish Strips!

Have you tried these before?  What are your thoughts?

Spa Rituals Nail Lacquer

Spa Rituals nail lacquers are vegan, free of DBP, Toluene, Formaldehyde, and Formaldehyde resins!  I love the fact that they are nice to humans and animals :) 

Let’s start with the bottle and cap...

The bottle is made in Italy from recycled glass and the cap is a rubbery material that is easy to grip and makes opening the bottle really easy!

The brush...

The brush is on the smaller/thinner side, but it fans out nicely, so it is easy to apply the polish!

The formula...

The polish itself applies SO easily!  It is smooth and creamy.  No lines, streaks, or clumps!  I usually have to clean up quite a bit after applying polish, but I had no mess around my nails at all!

Joe Fresh Nail Polish

I love nail polish and you know what I love even MORE?  Great nail polish that is CHEAP!  Joe Fresh has a nail polish line and they are 3 for $10 ... you can’t go wrong with that!  I picked up Mint, Coral, and Faded Violet and I absolutely love them!  The formula is actually really good and it is really easy to apply.  The first coat is a little scary but once you apply coat #2, you are golden.  The colour selection is pretty good and you just cannot beat the price.  They are also the perfect size; I find the larger bottles dry up before I get anywhere near using it all up.  Each polish holds 6 ml in it, like I said... perfect size :) I highly recommend these polishes; let me know if you try them! :)

Xoxo,
