I know, I know....I've been slacking. In fact, I've been so crazed that there's not currently anything on my nails at this very moment and that rarely ever happens. I guess that's what happens when you work in online retail and it's the holiday season. Absolute mania and pandemonium ensue.
But last week, when I was the shell of a functional human being, I managed to wrap my nails with Sally Hansen's Salon Effects in Winter Funderland, a delightful glittery part of the 2011 holiday collection. I haven't been shy about my love for Sally Hansen's line of polish strips, but I do want to point out that this particular style was different than the others that I have tried.
First of all, I know many are intimidated by the product and think it will be difficult to use. Pick a relaxing night, pour yourself a glass of wine, wipe your nails down one final time with polish remover and test out different sizes to pick the best size for your nail. Secondly, depending on what type of polish strip it is, they can varry in thickness. The solid color strips I've found to be a little thinner, while glitter strips tend to be a bit thicker (it makes sense, after all).
However, Winter Funderland was the thickest strip I've applied yet, and in some ways it made it much easier to apply. I will point out that the larger round piece of glitter can be a bit problematic if they are near the edge of your nail, but if you stretch the strip a bit to be strategic about the placement, you'll be just fine. Besides, who doesn't want their nails to twinkle like fresh snow at midnight?
I'd love to hear about your experience with Sally Hansen's polish strips - have you tried them? If so, what are your fave shades?
