Sally Hansen Diamond Strength No Chip#62 I DO Review
This polish is pretty durable for the price. Been using it for a few years, mainly because of one color I can't find anywhere else. I like the way it goes on and stays on.

Reviews of Sephora by O.P.I Chic Prints for Nails red bows
These are cute for doing nails on the go, and unlike Sally Hansen salon strips or Minx they do not require complicated equipment or give off a chemical scent. Too bad they were discontinued. Please bring them back!
* It looks good before you apply it
* If you manage to apply it correctly, it would look amazing
Cons:
* The price-tag is a bit much, compared to similar products
* The strips are too long and not fitted as actual nails, like Sally Hansen (Sally Hansen SALON EFFECTS LIMITED EDITION Winter Collection Peppermint Twist) and Incoco (Incoco Color Manicure: Red Velvet (Creme)). When applying this design, it makes it very difficult to see exactly where the design should go on the finger, and when you finally apply it, you have to file it. But you can't file it (see next con)
* The actual material is very thick, which makes it impossible to file/cut only a little bit of it without making the entire strip come off or get distorted
* It doesn't even come with a file or anything of sorts, unlike Sally Hansen, for instance.
In conclusion:
I didn't end up using it because I just couldn't apply it, it just wasn't possible. Although the idea itself was very cute at first, I would not recommend this. I believe you could get much more for your money with the other companies or even with a little nail polish and imagination.
I really wanted to like this, and it's too bad that I didn't, and that I never got to wear this, especially for that price tag.

Sally Hansen Salon Pro Gel Starter Kit Wine Not - 1 Kit, Pack of 2 Review
I bought this product at walmart. It's worth every penny. I am not the type of person to put my life on hold to keep my nails looking nice, and therefore, my nails have never lasted more than a day. I am on day 10 of my at home manicure, and my nails still look great. I have a few minor chips that are hardly noticeable, but it's a miracle because the last 10 days I've been cooking, cleaning, doing dishes, doing construction work, typing, you name it. I'm definately going to try other colors and keep using this. A few things to know: wine not is a brighter red than I was expecting, but still a nice color. It is a couple of shades off from the color on the box. Another thing is that you need to follow the directions to a tee... be careful not to cure it on your skin, otherwise it will easily peel off.

Reviews of Sally Hansen Pure Scent-Sation Hair Remover Creme for Face, 1 Ounce
It smells horrible and it did not work. I was very disappointed since I had done quite a bit of research to find a hair remover which smelled ok and was effective. This product was neither. So...I'm back to tweezing my chin and neck hairs til I find something that works!
My only real regret is that I wish the results would last longer than a week. Although from just tweezing alone, I would say that this product is a HUGE step up. It gets ALL the hair and you don't have to do it continually as new hair emerges.

I actually use the body cream on my face (even though it says you're not supposed to...). I wash my face, and the apply it thick enough to where I can't see skin (or at least almost that thick) and wait 5-10 minutes. It burns like no other, I'll admit that, but when I wipe it off, my skin is hair-free. I just wash my face with a mild soap afterward and apply some aloe to ease the burning.My only real regret is that I wish the results would last longer than a week.
