Sally Hansen Complete Salon Manicure Nail Polish Review

I have never particularly liked black polish but this black is amazingly nicer than I would have thought. The brush is shaped so it's easier to apply without going over the edges & it lasts for weeks. Midnight in NY has a slight sparkle / shimmer which makes it different from just bold black polishes.

I wasn't a huge fan of Sally Hansen nail polish until I tried this range. After I bought on bottle I was instantly converted. I LOVE these nail polishes and I am now a fan of Sally Hansen nail polishes (the Sally Hansen polishes I previously owned were quite old and obviously the formula has changed). Since buying my first one and loving it, I have purchased almost half the range I think. I have the red, pink, purple, light blue and navy.

Colour - I love the colours of these nail polishes. The colour that comes off the brush and onto your nail is exactly like the colour in the bottle. I always hate it when you purchase nail polish and when you apply it it doesn't look anything like it does in the bottle. The polish is quite bold and pigmented, so its not sheer.

Application - these polishes are so easy to apply. The formula is really smooth and doesn't leave streak lines when you apply it on your nail. I found it really easy to get a good smooth finish on my nail with only one or two coats, and fills the ridges in my bail nicely. This nail polish is put too thin so you don't need to keep applying heaps and heaps of layers. With the darker colours I only needed one coat, but with the others I use two and find it gives my nail good coverage with no see through patches. This nail polish isn't particularly fast drying, but does dry quicker than other polishes I have used.

Brush - I love the brush on these polishes. It's bigger and wider than your normal brush.Think flat rectangular shaped. ButI find it easier to apply with this type of brush as it covers more of my nail and you don't need as many stokes to get the polish over your whole nail. The three stroke application is really easy with this brush. The brush can almost cover my whole pinky nail!

Longevity - this polish lasts about 5-6 days without chipping. But I usually use a top and base coat with these polishes which makes it last about 7-10 without chipping. This nail polish is also super shiny as its got a built in top coat. I find that it doesn't leave my nails brittle or weak either. The nail polish is quite easy to remove as well. I've had my polishes for about a year now and they are just as good when I bought them. They haven't gone gloopy, separated or hardened at all. I do keep them in a dry, dark place away from direct sunlight. There's quite a bit in one bottle too (which is why they have lasted for a year, and they are no way near empty).

Packaging - I love the unique design of the bottle. It's a mix of a round and square bottle, with a rounded bottle lid/handle and straight square edges.

Would I recommend this - yes, defiantly. They are definitely worth your money. I am a huge fan of OPI nail polish, and I think these polishes a just as good as OPI. And the best part is is that they are about half the price! I get mine from farmers on sale, and I saw these at countdown the other day too, so are widely available.

This has to be hands down, one of the best nail polishes I've ever used. I bought this product in the shade 'Honey Whip' from an importers clearance. I didn't have any brown/neutral shades in my ever growing nail polish collection, and I really liked the look of this one. The bottle itself is cute, and fits nicely on my shelf. The brush is probably the best thing about this brush. Instead of your usual triangle (I guess??) shape on the brush, its long and flat like a paintbrush. It makes applying SO MUCH EASIER. I was smitten the first time I used it. The consistency of the nail polish isn't thick, but it isn't overly runny either. I've had it for almost a year and while I don't use it often, I'm not halfway through the bottle yet. For this particular shade, I found two coats was enough to make the color opaque. I will definitely be repurchasing this product, and quite possibly in other shades.

I normally buy $2 nail polish from Kmart but they were having a special on their Sally Hansen salon manicure nail polish for $5 so I brought to one try. I picked the colour bamboo which is a light brown skin tone colour.

Applying this is so easy, the formula is more runny compared to the $2 nail polish im used to buying so you only use small amounts and it has a faster dry time. I put 5 coats on to get a really nice and even finish to my nails. When I wear this nail polish it last at least a week without chipping or fading, I am most impressed! I wash a lot of dishes and clean a lot with 2 kids in my home and this nail polish doesn't budge!

I would gladly pay full price for this nail polish as it is terrific! Quick, easy and lasts a long time, highly recommend!

I LOVE the design of the brush. It's a flat brush which makes it super easy to paint on nails! Why isn't every nail polish like this?? It has a very good formula that is difficult to chip! The colours are also very feminine and subtle! Perfect manicure piece.

The wide brush makes it super easy to do three strokes and cover your nail without a lot of excess on the sides. I love Grey-t escape, I've purchased it twice not realising I have the colour already! It's an easy to wear all-season colour, great coverage, lasts with minimal chipping and I can easily touch up later in the week and it looks seamless, not like I've added a glob over a chip. I do a double coat, but it's not needed. I love the staying power, easy to apply brush and lovely purple grey colour.

Excellent value for the price, and I love their range of colours. Keeps its shine for ages and I didn't have any problem with chipping.

So I was an OPI only girl until I got a free bottle of the colour 'get juiced' when I spent a certain amount on Sally Hansen products at Farmers. As soon as I started applying this I fell in love with everything! The brush is amazing, it makes applying so much neater. Not to mention that the color is gorgeous! Bit of a pinky coral colour. I have since bought three other colours, all have impressed me. When dried they are all super shiney and I find the polish last ages without going dull or chipping as if they have a top coat which is great for those nights when you remember last minute you need to put polish on and don't have time for base or top coat! So I have had my oldest bottle for quite awhile and is nearly empty but they polish hasn't gotten thicker and is still as easy to apply as the day I got it.

This could very well be one of my HG nail polishes (after my Essie of course). I really love this formula, it's not too thick, not too thin, creamy and goes on smoothly. I also adore the brush, my favourite type of brush is the flattened squarish ones I find they apply and spread the product so much better than regular brushes. I have horrible nails, they're flaky, weak and dry as heck - this is one of the only formulas that lasts on my nails, it doesn't chip, flake or peel and lasts for 5+ days without wear! Amazing. Will definitely be picking up more shades in the future.

I'm a fan of Sally Hansen nail products so when Farmers had a spend a certain amount and get a free gift I went for it. In the gift with purchase set was a bottle of this in the shade Greige. I was skeptical that one bottle could do it all but I gave it shot.

Pros: The color sets beautifully and has a lovely glossy finish it also sets and dries fairly quickly. The brush gives a nice smooth application that isn't streaky and one coat was opaque enough for me. The rubber at the neck of the bottle makes it easy to open the bottle as it gives a bit of grip and resistance. I was also really out of practice for applying nail polish and found that the brush has a slight curve at the end so I found it very easy to paint without getting polish all over the cuticles and skin on the sides of my nail. I haven't used gel polishes before but the finish I got from using this wasn't like the regular nail polishes I've used, but it filled out any ridges in my nails and had a glossy finish even though I didn't apply a top coat. I really thought it would take effort and rubbing to take it off but it came off fairly easily and quickly even though I used a non-acetone nail polish remover.

Cons: It wasn't chip resistant like stated as chips started showing up after I was cooking the following day. And when I took it off it left these weird indents around the base of the nail near the half moon. Then indents didn't come off with buffer and it was awhile before the nail grew those dents out.

I ended up giving away the polish because the shade Griege (a grayish biege) really didn't suit the yellow undertone on my hands but the shade looked really good on my best friend since she has white skin with a pink undertone.

Overall I think this a lovely nail color and very convenient and easy to use but due to the indents it left on my nails I personally would save it for special occasions so that my nails have time to grow out the indents, if this wasn't a problem I would own several bottles in a variety of shades.
