When I said before that I was going to try really hard not to spend any more money than I had to, this would include cutting out my weekly mani/pedi sessions. So hard because I’m the WORST when it comes to painting my own nails and having them look somewhat decent. With that said, I was beyond estastic to get a polish that actually works for me and my somewhat decrepit methods of applying the polish. An added bonus? It’s super cheap [$6.99!] and can be found right around the corner at your local drugstore. I’m talking about none other than the Sally Hansen Complete Salon Manicure that features all five steps of a professional manicure in one. [Yes, you read that correctly. All five steps: base coat, growth treatment, strengthener, color and top coat.] It also contains a special wide, tapered brush that gives you the perfect application every time. I even used it in the back of a moving vehicle to paint my nails and it worked just fine. In fact, when I got to the event, everyone kept asking who did my nails…if only they knew. The polishes are also chip resistant and lasted me for about two weeks. In 42 magical shades, you’ll be sure to find the right hue for you. [That’s my favorite shade pictured above: Commander in Chic. I’m a lover of all things black and, since it’s spring, I wanted to lighten up. So, essentially grey is the new black for spring.]

I almost bought a couple colors from this new line but I was afraid it would chip too soon as most Sally Hansen colors. I will give it a go since you speak so highly of it!
