I know that you can't always trust what you see in pictures, but I ordered this expecting a nice Light Indigo color, but was disappointed when I saw that the real color was a purplish Wine color. On the picture, I thought it would be a unique and beautiful color to put on my nails, but it failed to impress, as I already have a couple bottles of the Wine color. So BUYER BEWARE, if you want this color! And to the seller, I suggest you change the picture and try to make it look more like the real bottle, as the color could throw some people off. Thanks.

Review of Sally Hansen Gem Crush, 02 Cha-Ching!

Sally Hansen Gem Crush, 02 Cha-Ching!
Customer Ratings: 4 stars

This is a high impact glitter nail polish. It is basically a clear base that is packed with red microglitter and a little bit larger chunks of silver glitter. I love the deep red glitter, but for me personally I feel the silver glitter clashes a little. I think it would have been much better with a warmer tone accent glitter like gold. Just my opinion. The formulation of this polish tends to vary based on color. In this particular color, the polish is a little bit thinner but it provides perfect full coverage with two coats. It dries really quickly. The only downside is that it does tend to chip and peel off quite easily. Even applying a top coat does not seem to effect the wear, it just does not stay on as well as I would like. Overall though, I really like this polish. It is much less expensive than similar glitters that I have seen, so I am willing to deal with reapplying.

I have thick course black hair with sensitive skin. It's not easy to find a waxing program that doesn't completely ruin my skin. I do get my face fully waxed once a month at the local spa but I still need something to do touch-ups in-between sessions, especially around my mouth and chin. (EDIT 4/5/11 I no longer get my face waxed by a professional, because I can do a much better, and precise, job with these strips.)

After two weeks I've got embarrassing hair showing-up around my upper and lower lip. Surgi's Maple Honey Strips are so gentle on my face and super easy to use! There's nothing to mix or heat! I'm so happy I've found something I can easily and, most importantly, effectively use between professional sessions.

Make sure your skin is clean and free of any oil. Don't take a hot shower right before using this product otherwise it could irritate your skin.

Vigorously rub the strip between your hands, until they get hot, to get the wax warm, then apply the strip to the face and continue to rub the strip in the direction the hair grows. I usually rub my hands for 30-seconds and then rub it on my face for another 30-seconds.

Make sure the strip is securely attached to the skin and hair. If the strip is moving around that means you have some type of oil on your skin, the strip will not work correctly. I use a 12x mirror to help me see where I'm placing the strip and to help me navigate around my face. I want to verify I'm not going over an area twice.

When I'm ready to rip the strip from my face, I hold the skin extremely taut and pull in the OPPOSITE direction that the hair grows. This step is key! Hold the skin taut in one direction and pull the strip in the other direction, quickly. Also, when you pull the strip off your face, do so by pulling it closer to you rather than lifting up and away. When you pull the strip taut and low, you really get the most effective use of the strip.

Don't be scared, it's not going to hurt (that much). If you're pulling the surface area of your skin taut, you'll experience a lot less pain, especially if you do it in a quick-n-low motion.

Do not reuse strips on new areas. The used strip has dead skin cells and hair on it, gross (just look at a used strip in a magnified mirror). You want to apply a clean strip to the new area so you don't run the risk of embedding bacteria back into your skin.

Try not to re-wax any areas you just waxed. You've just pulled a layer of skin off your face and re-waxing an area over could possibly cause irritation. If you wax correctly the first time you won't have to go over the same area twice. Instead of re-waxing stray hairs just puck them out. They'll come out easier because you've already tried to wax them out. You've loosened the hair, so it will more than likely slide-out easily with good quality tweezers.

I use Neutrogena cleansing towelettes, in the purple night-calming packet because they don't have alcohol, to gently dab up the excess wax / hair off my face. Don't rub the towelette over the freshly waxed area because it could cause irritate to the skin, just gently dab. (EDIT 4/5/11 I now use Garnier's Nutri-Pure Oil-Free Detoxifying Wet Cleansing Towelettes.)

Afterward, to help further calm my face I use a HYDRATING mask to ease any redness. Hey, you've just ripped skin and hair off your face, you're going to get some type of irritation. The hydrating mask, don't use a clay mask because it will draw all the moisture from your face and possibly cause irritation, will rehydrate your skin with needed moisture.

I use Aveda's hydrating mask but you can find hydrating masks at the drugstore. Surgi includes a soothing gel. I like my hydrating mask better, because it's thick and I can feel it repairing the damage to my face. The hydrating mask makes my face feel comfortably warm with a gentle sensation. It has the same effect as aloe. I bet an aloe mask would work just as well.

Also, don't do anything for the rest of the day that's going to make your face sweat. The sweat will cause irritation, and possibly cause a rash or a whitehead outbreak. Don't take a hot shower right before or after you use the strips, that can cause irritation. Also, don't go out and lay in the sun afterward, that could cause irritation as well.

It's really best to wax before bed then your skin has time to recuperate. You want your skin to be in a state of calm before you use the strips. I feel that's when I get the best results. I leave the mask on overnight. The mask is absorbed by your skin so there's only a thin of residue in the morning.

If for some reason you have continued irritation, even after doing every correctly, apply some maximum strength Cortizone-10 to your skin. You can find that over the counter at the drugstore. That has aloe and medication. Why the irritation? Maybe your skin wasn't in a healthy state? If you have sun damage, don't wax. Don't wax pimples or existing rashes. Wax only healthy skin. Otherwise, you'll probably experience a negative reaction to your already damaged skin.

I'm probably much more cautious than most when waxing, but my skin is extremely sensitive. It's taken me a long time to figure out how to effectively remove hair from my face. It's an embarrassing distraction for a woman, to me, to have unattractive dark facial hair. These strips are a godsend to my sensitive skin!

Anyhow, take your time, it's worth it because you'll have a super smooth pretty face for weeks. Half a box will do my whole face, for me each box has two full applications. Happy waxing! :)

I have very sensitive skin and all other hair removal strips that I have used really sting and leave a rash. Not Surgi! I love the results and the ease in using them. No fuss, no muss and very effective. Only brand I use.

For my face, I have previously used regular waxing with strips or hard wax with good results. I decided to try this and see if it would be a bit simpler. I read all the instruction, made sure my skin was clean and got started. Warmed them, applied them, let them sit a minute and then.....yanked. Some hair was removed and some hair was left behind. For me more of the finer hair was removed and the tougher ones stayed put. Also there was a sticky residue left behind. In the end I had to finish up with the tweezers to get all the hair removed. For me this product was a bust.

Honest reviews on Surgi-wax Assorted Maple Honey Wax Strips For Face Upper Lip, Chin

These are the best wax strips I have ever used. The material is softer than the ones at the salon. I've tried Parissa wax and although they are okay, they can not compete with Surgi! Surgi takes off the most amount of hair while feeling that your skin is still in tact while you rip off the strip. :)

I think I've found a hair removal product that will work for me. These wax strips are very easy to use and inexpensive. They did a great job of removing almost all the hair where applied (very coarse hairs had to be tweezed). There was a little redness afterwards, but that has cleared up and I don't seem (8 hours later) to have any other side effects. This seems like an effective alternative to daily tweezing and very expensive salon waxing. Yay!

Sally Hansen Quick Care Strengthen Treatment-0.14 oz Review

Sally Hansen Quick Care Strengthen Treatment-0.14 oz
Customer Ratings: 4.5 stars

I was looking for a product similar to the Neutrogena "Instant Nail Enhancer", which I can't find any more. The Neutrogena product actually did seem to make my nails stronger and more resistant to snagging and breaking.

This product is just a clear nail enamel. I don't wear nail enamels because they damage the nails. I don't really think this product will strengthen my nails it just makes them a bit stronger due to having a layer of stuff on them.

Plus, it has a very strong acetone odor that persists for a log time up to an hour. If you are used to wearing nail enamels, this might not bother you, but I found it very unpleasant.

It is easy to apply, so I gave it two stars. It's not a bad product for what it is, but I was looking for something different.

I like the all in one brush idea ( easy no mess). I was using another brand and when i needed to replenish my supply, I couldn't find the item. the store I originally brought them discontinued the brand. I then (on a hunch) looked on Amazon for the same type treatment and what do you know I not only found it, I also found another product (same package) for growth treatments. I will always purchase them from Amazon. My nails thank you very much.

This delivery system is really easy and fast when you use a clear product. I use it for fingers and toes to get and then maintain healthy, stronger nails. It's not super shiny, but it is what I would consider a polish and not an oil based, rub in treatment. It does what I need it to.

Found out about this from a woman in my Zumba class. I have long natural nails but at times break after water exposure like swimming or doing the dishes. I also have an annoying on going vertical split on my ring finger on my right hand that would always end up breaking off causing me to then cut down the other nine nails :( This stuff makes your nails very strong and lasts a good few weeks without chipping off. I've been using it for over a year. I prefer to wear it alone keeping my finger nails more natural looking. My Zumba friend did tell me that the Sheer pink gloss worked better than the clear or other colors. Not sure since today is the first time I'm trying clear with a tint. The Sheer pink gloss does seem alot more thicker to me. Plan on using two coats and waiting forever for it to dry. Both of which I feel are well worth the results. Highly recommend.

These toenail scissors have the bulk to actually cut through the toughest toenails. They are almost impossible to find in stores. I have recommended them to numerous people and they have all come back with rave reviews. As far as I'm concerned they beat the $20 and $30 brands.

I've been using one of these forever. It's great for trimming toenails and for anything else. The other reviewer is correct though that it is a serrated blade on one side. It hasn't been an issue for me.

This is an excellent product. Whereas my natural skin is neutral, that is not oily or dry. I am required to use a sunblock daily because of a skin problem. Sunblocks for the most part leave my skin with a shiny covering. I use this product to take away that shine. As I am medium brown skin by ethnicity I can testify that the colorless finish works for me. I recommend this to anyone who wants a clear shine-less appearance without a lot of coverage.

I have been using these strip for sometime and love them. They last so much longer than regular manicures. I do agree that they don't seem to last as long as they used to. I also have noticed they separate from the backing when you pull the clear cover off. Could be they are old and have lost there freshness. Still would recommend. I'd like to see more variety in colors.

I love these nail strips. I actually use them with the solar top and solar light from the Sally Hansen solar strip kit and these work fine with it. I coordinate the solids with a fun pattern on alternating nails and they are fun and funky. I get about 7 or 8 days of use before changing which is better than regular nail polish gives me.
