I have wanted to try this set for a while now. I am a real fan of Incoco nail polish strips (and Sally Hansen, too). This makes it so easy to have shiny long lasting manicures that look like Salon gels. There is a little learning curve to them, but be patient. The little rubber tipped tool that comes with the set helps to smooth any bubbles.
Well worth the price and a great product!To start off, I absolutely LOVE Incoco products. I was super excited to try this kit. It came with all the advertised products, and I was pleasantly surprised with everything except one thing: the UV lamp. It was set up to work for 10 seconds at a time, which is just fine I suppose, but it completely stopped working after only being plugged in and on for about 20 seconds. (10 seconds curing, five minutes of me fiddling with strips, then another 10 seconds of light... Then nothing. I'm returning this ASAP, and will put my money toward a decent UV light. I will probably still continue to order the nail strips and gel top coat from Incoco, but as for this kit... save your money.

Reviews of Sally Hansen Insta-Dri Fast Dry Nail Color, Co-Bolt Blue, 0.31
This is a beautiful, bold blue color. We bought it for red, white, and blue nails for the 4th of July, and I was very pleased. Covers in one coat. I'm not sure about "inst-dri" but it does seem to have dried quicker than the other colors I used for my patriotic nails. The big negative is the big brush. It's probabaly twice the width of a typical nail color brush and fairly flat but not evenly trimmed. I found it awkward to use, especially on my pinkies and definitely hard on my daughters' smaller nails. Because of the brush design, I will not buy this type of polish again, despite the other positive factors.

This polish goes on easily, dries quickly, and has a rounded edge brush that makes it mush easier to avoid mistakes. The color is a bright but dark blue and I get compliments every time I wear it.Best Deals for Sally Hansen Insta-Dri Fast Dry Nail Color, Co-Bolt Blue, 0.31
Nail polish was hard and crystallized and only 1/3 full when I received it. This is a dark blue polish and there was nothing spilled in the packaging, so did they send a used bottle? Doesn't make sense, if it had spilled in the package there should be evidence. Amazon issued a refund without issues.Wednesday, July 23, 2014
Sally Hansen Radiant Hand Nail & Cuticle Creme 3.5 oz. Review
This has been my daughter's favorite hand cream for years. We have not been able to find it at any store, either in Virginia, my home or Texas, her home. She had mentioned to me that she sure would love to have this product since it is the best hand and cuticle cream she has ever used. Well, I went online and found it at Amazon and sent her a gift of three tubes. She was thrilled and surprised to receive it. Now, her hands finally feel nice and smooth again and her cuticles look great. This is a great product. When she runs out, I will know where to find it again.
This cream was the best I found and fit in my scrub jacket's large pockets although the tube is not that small.
I find it works best if one massages it around the cuticles themselves as well as the hands while applying it since it softens them both.
It absorbs fairly well but I usually wipe my hand on a towel after its application as I have a "thing" about having lotion on my hands.
The cream also has a pleasant orange scent.
About twice a day I would apply as directed, and my cuticles stayed nice all year!

This is a great hand cream, especially for the price. It leaves hands and cuticles soft. It smells good and the 3.5 oz is a good size. I live in Utah and our dry, cold winters can be brutal on the skin. I've tried Philosophy, Clinque, L'Occitane, Jergens (the worst) and Vaseline. The Sally Hansen Radiant Hand Creme was the best price and the best product.Thursday, July 17, 2014
Reviews of Sally Hansen Natural Beauty Sheerest Cream Bronzer - #1020-1 Miami
I had contacted Sally Hansen about this product and they emailed me saying they discontinued it and there were none available in the warehouse. I was very disappointed as this bronzer is the shade of my face and I always received compliments whenever it was worn. Well, to the rescue was amazon with a speedy delivery. Some people complimented me saying my face appeared to "glow". I love this product and will buy more in the future.

Reviews of Bundle Monster Nail Polish Strip Sticker Decal Set - 8 Different
I ordered these because I am in love with the Sally Hanson version of them and was amazed at the price. Normally the Sally Hanson ones are up to 9 dollars for one set. Sadly, with this product, you get what you pay for. I was a little concerned when I opened the package and realized that all 8 sets were sealed into one package. I knew that with pervious sets I've used, the left over strips dry out after you open the package, so I am not sure how well they will stay in a ziplock bag. There is not much variety in the sizes but the designs are cute. These do NOT seal to your nail and become hard like normal nail polish or the Sally Hanson strips. Instead they are just stickers that easily chip away. I can actually very easily peel them off my nails and I put them on 3 days ago. I guess that is a positive thing if you are putting them on a child, or want to use them for just a day and don't care about how long they last. Personally, I am going to pay extra for a much better quality product that won't look like crap 3 days later. The Sally Hanson strips last at least 2 weeks and rarely chip, but are difficult to remove. If you are looking for something cheap that you can wear for a day and then easily peel off, these are perfect....otherwise, don't waste your money.
It is important to have really clean nails, pushed-back cuticles, and a bit of patience for the best results. I lay the sticky side on my nail, rub it carefully with a tissue to seal it down, then gently bend and pull off the extra decal parts. I don't use the emery board to trim the top b/c it isn't as nice an edge. If the design--and your nail size--permit, you can then apply the top of the decal to another nail and repeat. Smooth and tuck with the cuticle stick, apply topcoat, and enjoy. I have found that you can also fix a chip with leftover decal if necessary. The design hides the flaws much better than fixing a chip in regular nail polish.
Now I'm buying another set of these so I can share some, but I'm really wishing for different patterns. Of the 8 designs, I think 3 are pretty cute, 3 are so-so (fine for toes as the shock factor works better there, and it's not so necessary that they coordinate with your wardrobe--especially in winter), and 2 are "whuh?"
I started with and learned a lot on the "whuh?" decals (purple camouflage). Strange, but they got a lot of compliments and a lot of "did you do that yourself? Amazing!" I do think it's worth not starting with your favorite pattern. I'd certainly give this product 5 stars if the pattern choice were more to my liking. But for what you get, it's a great value.

Amazon reminds me I bought these nail decals on 12/10/11. It's 2/6/12, and I've just done my toes for the third time. I've only done my fingers twice. Every time, I've had a good experience. And I've learned a little more. I read someplace that these decals are actually a layer of polish and will dry out if kept for long. So I've wrapped the unused strips tightly in plastic wrap between uses and had no trouble. I've found that, with care, I can get two uses out of each pattern of 16 decals as each is about 1.5" long. My nails, both fingers and toes, top out a bit above 1/2". It means careful application with no wastage, but I think it's worth it. On my fingernails, with a topcoat, the decals last about a week, looking nice. I cook, knit and crochet and do beadwork, so they get a workout. On my toes, I take them off after about 10 days, but I think they could go longer. The last time, I didn't even put a topcoat on my toes; same result.It is important to have really clean nails, pushed-back cuticles, and a bit of patience for the best results.

OPI Natural Nail Base Coat, 0.5-Fluid Ounce Review
We're all looking to save money and not give up some simple luxuries. Let's face it, manicures are a luxury. I watched what my manicurist did and used and have decided to do my best to take care of my own nails. The most difficult part for me is getting the right shape on my nails. The easiest? The polish. I noticed she used OPI base, polish and top coat. They all go on so easy and dry very quick. It does take a little practice but I'm getting the hang of it. Best part is I can do easy touch ups because I have all my colors here at home.
I think it's important to use the base and top coats. It seems to keep the polish from wearing early.

I wear this one with OPI top coat and my nail polishes stay up to 7 days WITHOUT chipping and I use my hands a lot. This base coat also prevented my nails from getting any sort of yellow discoloration. This is a must buy if you want to wear your nail design for a while. I highly recommend this product!Best Deals for OPI Natural Nail Base Coat, 0.5-Fluid Ounce
I have read that adding a base coat can extend your manicure, but that just was not my experience. I found that the base coat caused my nail polish to fall off within hours, with brands such as revlon, cover girl, etc, and recently essie. That was until I found O.P.I.'s natural base coat. It creates a coat that is like a glue bond for the nail polish. I also feel like the colors of the nail polish are more vibrant with the base coat. My nail polish went from lasting 2-3 days to up to 6 days. I would definitely recommend!Honest reviews on OPI Natural Nail Base Coat, 0.5-Fluid Ounce
I received this OPI base coat free when I bought two polishes at Ulta so I was very eager to try it. I used it for the first time as a base coat for the Nicki Minaj Metallic for Life polish. I was pleased to see that it gave my nails a very smooth finish to them before I applied the polish. It did not help the polish stay on for very long since the Metallic for Life polish started chipping off in two days ( I have bad luck with glitter sometimes so I did not soley judge the product by this experience alone). I was very happy to see that it did indeed stop my nails from being stained which happens almost always with dark polish. Overall, it gave my nails a smooth finish and helped dark colors not to stain my nails so I was happy with this product and would recommend to anyone who just wants a basic light base coat. It is not a ridge filler or anything so I did not expect any miracles. It does what it says and that was all I asked for.Find helpful customer reviews and review ratings for OPI Natural Nail Base Coat, 0.5-Fluid Ounce

Buy Sally Hansen: Spa Nightly Foot Repair - Grape Seed Oil & Lavender
Don't know where ask about this. I have just bought 4 jars of Nightly foot repair. On the back was a tab that said peel here and it looks like something else is printed there however when it peeled off there is nothing there -on any of my jars. I am assuming that the customer just grabs some and rub it all over their feetbut can not be sure there is something more I should know. Is there some secret way to separate the tab from the instructionsif that is what I am seeing but can not read. Any suggestions? Pat Padian

My wife and I keep our teacup poodle face groomed and we needed safe scissors to trim face hair around her eyes. So, we looked for some blunt tip scissors we used to cut our childrens finger nail when they were babies. However, we could not locate the scissors, so we shopped with Amazon and found the perfect scissors for our needs. So, we purchased 3 pair and placed them so we might find them when needed. We will see. As we age, where we place something does not always come to mind when you need them. That may be why we collect alot of "stuff" in our greater senior years. Our teacup appreciates the scissors also. Larry, Judy, and SophieHonest reviews on La Cross Safety Tip Scissors

I gave this only two stars because of the pretty color plus the price is reasonable. However, I will never purchase this again or anything from the same line as it is extremely thick and messy to work with. It dries too quickly which makes it very hard to work with and to put on a clean smooth coat. I bought it for the color, but next time will look for something of better quality. Would not recommend this to anyone.
