Editor Review

Rated a 5

The 24 shades of this drugstore favorite can't compare to OPI's vast collection, but it's a fair trade-off for the added conditioning and strengthening keratin and botanicals. It's pregnancy-safe (the line contains no DBP, toluene or formaldehyde), but quality suffers. The watery lacquer separates easily and delivers a chunky, uneven finish, despite the promise of flawless application. Be sure to give it a good shake before applying.

    dark is a must

    by LAregan (9 reviews)
    take it or leave it. compared to OPI's lights, Sally Hansens less intense shades were streaky and required an overload of polish to fix. However, the darker pigmented shades had great color pay off and were surprisingly easy to apply. My favorite shade? Wine Not? Great for the holidays and winter months. All you need is a... coat or two. November 25, 2007, 9:20 am

    Long lasting

    by wninal (4 reviews)
    I bought a bottle of this nail polish in a dark color not expecting much. To my surprise, two coats were all I needed to get a great look and the polish lasted nearly 7 days! The color wasn't streaky at all and was easy to apply. I also bought a light pink and wasn't as happy with that color as it was streaky with one co...te and required mutliple layers to look right. Overall, I was very happy, especially with the dark color. November 12, 2007, 4:19 pm

    Flaky as they can come

    by Yesca192324 (3 reviews)
    I really have a strong passion of negativity towards this nail polish. I wore it for less than a day. Went to my husbands sisters picnic and it was already chipping. I was rubbing my hands and a piece fell off. Several of the women there was disgusted. I was asked if I was wearing children's nail polish. It was so embarrass...ing! I will never ever again buy this nail polish. November 12, 2007, 3:31 pm

    Good Product!

    I like this because the price is fair, and the colors are nice, but some areas seem to go on thick, some thin, which adds a lot of work for me. May 30, 2008, 4:34 am

    I have to say I love it..

    by shawnky (11 reviews)
    I really like this product it has a varity of colors. Different colors than you will find in any other line. You do have to shake it between each hand (I've found) but not really a problem. The color last long before having to touch up or reapply. I would totally recommend this product. March 31, 2008, 8:35 pm

    mariab

    by mariab (9 reviews)
    I have used this product for many, many years. I have noticed a change when applying this polish recently. The wet product appears uneven, the lighter colors require more coats. I chose a dark red and was pleased with the application after two (2) coats. March 29, 2008, 8:21 am

    I like it!

    I'm kind of surprised by all the negative reviews. I got this the other day in Sultry Fuschia and immediately put in on my toes. Yes, it's not as thick as some other brands but that's fine with me. It goes on evenly, and is nice and shiny when dry. I also really like the rubber bottle top - makes it very easy to open.

    Thought it would rock!

    by cryvasnic (2 reviews)
    I thought that this polish would work extremely well based on its packaging and the tone rich color it appeared to have in the store. But, it didn't. I hardly ever use it because it takes far too many tries to actually get the desirable smooth polish finish I am looking for. March 8, 2008, 10:57 am

    like it

    by arrow09 (25 reviews)
    i liked the more water-y consistency as opposed to OPI's gloppy polish. there are some great colors to be found, and i think they have expanded the line from 24 shades. back to the fuschia is a an awesome bright that is very spring 2008. and its cheap! February 24, 2008, 11:06 am
