Nail Polishes Haul

Seche Vite Dry Fast Top Coat and Sally Hansen Miracle Gel Twin Set in Birthday Suit

~AG~

Since my younger sister was going to the States, I decided to do a little online shopping. A little haul from drugstore.com. The first product on my shopping list was Seche Vite Dry Fast Top Coat. It retailed only for US $7.09 (~S$10). This quick-dry top coat was introduced to me by the manicurist at Seasons Nail Bar. Seche Vite Top Coat is very chip-resistant and long-lasting, plus it dries up very quickly. My pedicured toenails did not chip off at all, even after 4 weeks. I managed to save S$10, because Season Nail Bar was selling it for S$20.

Another nail product that I purchased was the Sally Hansen Miracle Gel Twin Set in Birthday Suit. drugstore.com was having an offer, and it was retailing for US$ 12.79 (~S$18). I just found out that it would have been cheaper to buy it in Singapore; Guardian sells Sally Hansen Miracle Gel Twin Set for S$16.90. The twin set comes with a gel color and a gel top coat. I love gel nails for its long-lasting and durability, you do not have to wait for it to dry nor worry that it will chip. With that being said, going to the nail salon to do a gel nail can get pricy. Plus, too much gel nail application & removal can be harmful for your nails. Sally Hansen Miracle Gel claims to give 14 days of color and shine. This a great at-home option, plus you do not have to cure it with a UV lamp. 

I cannot wait to try out these nail polishes! Stay tuned for my review of them!

Nails Inc Spray Can Nail Polish

So excited when I heard about this! It sounds too good to be true. Great for people like me that cannot sit still and wait for their nails to dry. A shame that it is not readily available in Asia yet. For now, it is only available in the UK.  

Say hello to spray on nail polish - the world's fastest manicure!  Perfectly polished nails are only a spray away! Get ready with a base coat, spray over the nail area and then wash your hands to reveal a show stopping manicure. Paint can has been designed for those time-poor nail fans who are on the go; simply spray onto the fingertips and the polish adheres to the basecoat. To remove the excess polish, quickly wash away from the skin with water or cleansing wipes. And viola, perfectly applied polish in a heartbeat. Apply topcoat for endured wear and a glassy finish.

REVIEW: Sally Hansen Diamond Strength

~AG~

According to Sally Hansen, this is a high-powered nail hardener that virtually ends cracking, splitting & peeling, while locking in moisture so nails can grow. It is formulated with Real Micro-Diamond & Titanium properties that instantly bonds to strengthen and seal fragile nail layers with a virtually shatterproof protective shield.

After a bad gel nail encounter, my fingernails were becoming very brittle. Before that, I never had such issues with my nails breaking. I decided to try Sally Hansen Diamond Strength when I was in the States. It retailed for about USD $8. It is a strengthening treatment that supposedly protects the nails and prevents it from chipping. When painted on the nails, it creates a clear glossy finish. It dries up quickly, in less than 2 minutes. I love its quick drying properties, I do not have to worry about it smudging. I usually paint only one coat. The transparent coat stays on surprisingly well. It does not peel or chip easily. Mine can lasts up to 10 days without any chipping. For your information, I am terrible at keeping my manicured nails looking good, mine tend to chip or peel after 2-3 days. Overall, I really like this product and will recommend it those that have brittle nails. It does make my nails harder and less prone to splitting.
