Cheap Sally Hansen Advanced Hard As Nails Nail Enamel With Nylon
This is a wonderful product for anyone who has thin, dry or splitting nails. It covers well and can be used under or over a tinted nail polish, producing a smooth look. This is my favorite clear nail polish and I'm delighted to be able to order it online, since it is no longer available at the local store.

Sally Hansen Color Quick Chromes Nail Enamel - Fuchsia Chrome Reviews
I love the convenience this offers...the reasons I gave it 4 instead of 5 stars, is because the next day it chips, & if you leave it on for more than 24 hours, it turns your nails pink-no amount of nail polish remover can remove it...but these things shouldn't be a problem for those who do their nails everyday.

Review of Incoco Nail Polish Strips, Rainbow Glitter Nail Art, Make a Wish
Incoco Design Manicure: Make A Wish (Glitter)
I love this product! I love these nail wraps to begin with, as they are quick and easy ways to customize my nails. However, as I have fiberglass on my nails, and hate having them filled every couple weeks, these wraps let me extend my fill time to up to six weeks! They help hide the lines on my nails as they grow out, and seem to make my nails more resilient and strong during the growth process.
While these wraps tend to be on the more expensive side, they offer colors I can't get in the Sally Hansen brand, so I'm willing to go a few dollars more.
Lastly, these wraps say they last up to 10 days, but I've worn them up to 21 days by adding a coat or two of clear polish during the 21 days.
The only drawback is in removing the polish. But hey, if you want something to last long, that's to be expected, right?
to your nails those of us artistically challanged were unable to get without spending a fortune at
the local salon. They look fantastic on and can be used on your on nail or put on an artifical nali.
I like them on a pre prepared artifical nail that is ready to glue and go in a minutes notice. They are
easy and look fantastic.

Buy Just Feet Spa Lavender Foot Soak Relax By Sally Hansen 6 Oz/ 117.4ml
For some insane reason I can no longer find this product in local retail stores. I can't live without this, especially in summer when your feet are pretty much on display all season! The soak feels silky and moisturizes my poor overworked feet. Follow up with a vigorous pumice job (or a cheese grater, depending) and finish with a nice polish. Sublime!

Best Air Stocking Bronze Deals
-I am a light skinned hispanic and I am closer to neutral tones. Sometimes my legs look down right pasty, sometimes I have a tan, (occasionally from the sun, usually from sunless tanning sprays) so my color changes and I've also noticed my arms are always darker than my legs. (I am sure this is normal, I hope this is normal..)
-In my opinion, all three offer great coverage. Given the limited amount of product shades available versus the abundance of different skin colors that vary from person to person, and even vary in one individual due to sun exposure or tanning products, its a safe bet that most will not find their perfect color in one bottle. If you want the closest match, you will have to do some color mixing.
AIRSTOCKINGS:
PROS:
-Very little to no transfer:
CONS:
-Color doesn't seem natural to me. Too pink.
SUMMARY:
-If it wasn't for the color issue, it would be my favorite.
COLOR:
-They offer three colors. Listed from light to dark: Natural, Terra Cotta and Bronze.
-I've used all three. Colors seem to have more of a pinkish tone, this is great if you have cool coloring. Right now the natural is the closest of these that match and its a little too dark, just a tad, but when blended in, its not THAT obvious. When I am darker, I mix the terra cotta in a little. Its harder to mix because it dries faster (like the Nyce Instant Nylons) so you have to work fast.
-Their colors are my least favorite, they just don't look natural on me. The Natural shade by itself makes my legs look pink from afar and the shade is too different from the color of my arms.
APPLICATION:
-Says to spray on legs then use your hands to blend it in and they advise you let set for 1-2 minutes. I guess it has the potential to rub off in that time. Regardless of how long it takes to "set", it dries pretty fast and to mix the colors you have to work fast.
TRANSFERABILITY:
-Beats the Sally Hansen hands down. I've sat on black leather seats on a hot day, resulting in my legs sweating and saw no transfer. Downright impressive.
Sally Hansen Airbrush Leg Light Glow :
PROS:
-Nice colors (a little on yellow side)
-Of the three, offer best color selection (5 shades vs. 3)
-Easy to mix colors.
-Easy application.
CONS:
-Color transfer, of the three the most easily rubbed off.
SUMMARY:
-Nice colors but don't like that it transfers so easily. I used it for a long time but after trying the Nyce and Airstockings, my expectations have been raised.
COLOR
-They have five colors. Listed from light to dark: Nude Glow, Light Glow, Medium Glow, Tan Glow and Deep Glow.
-Ive used their Nude Glow, Light Glow and even Medium Glow depending on the color of my legs. Right now, being winter, my legs are pretty white and the closest match is the Nude Glow. The Light Glow is too dark and looks too orange on my skin. When my legs are tanner, I've mixed the Nude Glow with the Light Glow and even the Light Glow with the Medium Glow but I am rarely that tan.
-I prefer the colors of the Sally Hansen because they seem more natural, although a tad more on the yellow/orange side, and they have a better color selection. More colors, better odds of finding one that matches your skin color without mixing.
APPLICATION:
-Directions say to spray on hands, then apply to legs and blend, then let set 60 seconds. I've done it both ways. Sprayed on hands, sprayed on legs. I end up blending the color on my legs either way so the results are the same but I guess there is less product getting everywhere if you do it directly on hands. This brand has been the easiest to mix colors with.
TRANSFERABILITY:
-This isn't as good as the other two when it comes to transfer. It doesn't all rub off like makeup but, of the three, it rubs off the most and if you are sitting in your car on a hot day or just by sliding out, you will see some on your car seat...and your clothes. If you have black leather seats, sit on a towel or something you don't mind getting dirty....
Nyce Legs Spray On Instant Nylons Nail Treatment Products
PROS:
-Little to no transfer:
-Neutral colors (It leans towards yellowish but, to me, more of an in between of the Airstockings pink tones and Sally Hansen yellow tones)
CONS:
-Bottles clog.
-Dries very fast.
SUMMARY:
-if it wasn't for the clogged bottle issue, it would be my favorite.
COLOR:
-Offers three colors as well. Listed from light to dark: Nude, Medium Beige and Dark Beige.
-I've tried the Nude and Medium Beige. Right now I use the nude and this is pretty close to my skin tone. I find that its not too orange and not too pink, it sits somewhere in the middle. When I am darker, I mix it in with the Medium Beige. This brand is harder to mix colors because of the fast dry time.
APPLICATION:
-Says to spray on legs and dries in 10 seconds (sounds about right..). This is what makes it harder to mix, you have to work fast (faster than 10 seconds....)
-The one thing I did not like was that the three bottles i've purchased have clogged at one point or another before I was finished with them. Two I managed to salvage. Once they clogged the first time, it became a repetitive issue, I keep having to clean the caps. I do this by dunking them in a mixture of water and facial cleanser, let it soak then use an old toothbrush to brush it clean. (I just got an ultrasonic jewelry cleaner so I am going to try dunking it in that next.) Sometimes i have to clean it during application which is very inconvenient, especially when I am mixing colors.
TRANSFERABILITY:
-Comparable to Airstockings, I saw little to no transfer.
MIXING COLORS:
-Mixing Nyce and Airstockings still gives a nice color with very little to no transfer.
-Mixing the Airstockings with Sally Hansen gives the nicest color (for me) and yields less transfer but there is still transfer nonetheless so I avoid using but when I am out of the either the Airstockings or Nyce, I will and just be more careful with transfer.
-I usually do a 50/50 mix just because its easier to spray them on my legs at the same time and can get consistent color through out, then blend them in quickly.
FINAL THOUGHTS
-Overall, I prefer to use the Airstockings and Nyce Instant Nylons to get the color I want, its a happy medium for me. If you find airstockings to pink, neutralize it, lighten or darken it with Nyce colors. If you find Nyce Colors too yellow, neutralize, lighten or darken with Airstockings and you, too, will find your happy medium. Although the lack of transfer is impressive, I'd still be wary and wouldn't push my luck. I have had some rub off on clothes but not sure if its because I didn't give it enough time to dry. Because I mixed them, I can't pin point which one it was. I have all the colors I mentioned I've tried except for the Sally Hansen Airbrush Legs Nude Glow, if I figure out how to add a picture, I'll add a picture of a sample of each on my leg to see the color differences.
I shave my legs,then moisturize with a good product. Next I step outside to my back patio(over-spray is one downside to this product), spray some air stocking in my palm and manually spread it on my legs. I think this method allows better control with more even application. Next, wash hands :-) I don't dress for about 10 minutes. The spider veins don't show too much and there is a nice, even tan look to my legs. Air Stocking doesn't rub off,water rolls off like from a duck's back(I tested this)! I think, since my legs are so pale, I will use a lighter shade when I order air stocking again..and I definitely will be using this product as long as its available~
I did not rate 5 stars because there is a slight sparkle that I could do without;then there is that messy over-spray to deal with.It's worth it,though,to be free from the dreaded and dated pantyhose.

They look great and also are so easy to put on. They are a bit difficult to take off, but well worth it. They stay on a lot longer than normal nail polish does.

Buy Sally Hansen No-Heat Gel Hair Remover Kit
So i have been waxing my underarms for years, used to use microwave wax but when we got rid of the microwave i started using Nads which works well but is more expensive so i thought i'd give this a go. I'm not sure what the trick is, i tried thin layers, thick layers, the crappy paper strips that it comes with, my own cloth strips, my underarms are red and sore, but still hairy. I KNOW how to wax, and i CAN'T get this stuff to work. Waste of my money and time (and pain).
My secret technique: The strips it comes with are crap. Not only are they thin, but they are paper and are unyielding to the curves of your body. Cut strips of cloth (I cut both thick and thin a thin, old sheet or a piece of canvas) just make sure it's white or very light colors or else you'll have bespeckled legs. Then I put on a thick but even layer (just to completely cover the hairs) place the strip on and warm it up and down with my palm, make my skin taught and pull upwards fearlessly and without hesitance.
You might be able to place the strip over another section of hair, but it doesn't seem to mold and meld around the hairs like it does the first go. I find the second time to be spotty, you are better off just applying a fresh layer of gel and a new strip. You can simply rinse your homemade strips off , dry them and reuse them!
This is worth the money! I will be getting another gel to prepare for the summer!

I've used this gel on my legs. It took a month or so to get the hang out it, but by the time I got to the bottom of the jar I was confident that I had the technique down. I like this product because it's very similar to Nads, so similar that I took a bit on the tip of my finger and ate some (remember the advert for Nads, with the lady sticking her finger in the jar as a midnight snack? lolz don't eat it! But I live..) It's superior to Nads because it does not completely crystalize and become useless after a month. It stays the perfect consistency for as long as you keep it.My secret technique: The strips it comes with are crap.
