A guest post from the wonderful Hilaire.
I’ve been wanting to write something for PPP for a little while now, but everything I seem to get excited about has already been well and truly covered by the community.Until I found Sally Hansen Insta-Dry nail colour.
Oh baby is it fast! I put it on less than a minute ago (yes that’s right less than 60 seconds) and I’m already confidently bashing away at the keyboard, no petite taps for this lady – Sally lets me get on with my business, pronto!
The bottle is pretty comfortably for holding, it’s right-angle triangle shaped, but with the corners curved or planed off.
The brush is shaped a little different from what I’m used too, it’s a lot flatter and slightly tapered at the corners giving more coverage over the nail per stroke. But it does the job well.
The polish itself is a great consistency and it covers fairly evenly. I didn’t have to go back and fill in gluggy or patchy spots. As I am a busy lady, sometimes I don’t take as much care in application as I should. So the bits which I have got on my skin have dried and seem easy to peel off with my fingernails, but the actual polish on the nail wants to stay right there where it should be. I like that a lot.
I got mine from Amcal Pharamcy on Cuba for $16.99. They had an amazing range of colours, including a brilliant banana yellow. I went for the Jumpin’ Jade which pretty much matches the online swatch – it’s just a tad darker than a British racing green. (sorry my digi is broken so no actual photos)
I’ve yet to see how long it lasts and how chip proof it is, but for me it gets four keyboard love hearts <3 <3 <3 <3. Right, GTG it’s a busy life being fabulous!
