Sally Hansen Salon Effects Rock of Ages Collection: Good Genes





Sally Hansen Good Genes

Hola! I want to congratulate Rachel C for winning the giveaway! I'll be contacting you shortly for your information. Thanks to everyone for entering! 

Good Genes is the final Salon Effects set I have to show. Honestly I thought I was going to hate these (love the name though). I thought the jeans effect was going to look terrible on the nail, but I'm pleasantly surprised. It's still not my favorite, but it's not terrible. Overall, I am terrible at doing nail art, so if I want something unique, I always get some Salon Effects. I find they are quite durable, and if you think they are too expensive, you can take the extra strips to apply on your toes as well!

Sally Hansen Salon Effects Rock of Ages Collection: Red-y to Rock




Sally Hansen Red-y to Rock

OoOoOo, Red-y to Rock has a bit of sparkle to it, doesn't it? I just love the finish on this one, which is different than the rest of the collection I have. Red-y to Rock is a zebra print with red and white stripes. Love it! The removal of this one was just fine, despite the abundance of fine shimmer. 

It's the weekend! Do you have any plans? I'm in Knoxville still doing my work. Oh, the exciting life of a scientist *please note the sarcasm*

Sally Hansen Salon Effects Rock of Ages Collection: Rock 'n Roar




Sally Hansen Rock 'n Roar

Blarg, I'm driving back to Knoxville to finish my science work. I just hate when you have unattainable expectations on how long something will take and you're way off. I thought I was going to get my samples done in a couple days, but it's going to take at least double that. Oops! Anyway, I'll still be posting, but you may not get the most exciting posts. Sorry! Don't forget to sign up for the giveaway. I'll still be announcing the winner this weekend, so go ahead and enter now!

Rock 'n Roar is a cheetah (or is it leopard?) print design with black, gold and silver. It makes quite a statement and I received many compliments on it. I always have at least 6 strips left over, one being the huge thumb one, and my husband decided to put these on this thumbs. They actually fit quite nicely, and he received tons of, "Let me see your thumbs. Why do you have that on?" A lot of people don't respond so well with a guy with polish on, which is a shame. Good thing my husband doesn't care and will rock it if he feels like it.

Sally Hansen Salon Effects Rock of Ages Collection: Fingerlace Gloves




Sally Hansen Fingerlace Gloves

Happy Monday! I had a busy day getting back into the swing of things and I'm getting some good data back from my trip to Cambodia. Anyway, I have a few more Salon Effects polishes to show, and here's Fingerlace Gloves. I find the pliability of the strips to be quite variable, with Fingerlace Gloves being the easiest to work with. Sometimes when you try and stretch them out over the nail, the design can get slightly messed up. I like this design quite a bit! Do you like the Salon Effects line?


Oh, and don't forget to sign up for the Zoya giveaway! You still have until Friday to enter.

Sally Hansen Salon Effects Nail Strips Rock of Ages Collection: Sticks and Stones




Sally Hansen Sticks and Stones

Hola! I'm still in Knoxville visiting and working and having a great time.  

I forgot to mention anything about about the movie Rock of Ages. I thought it looked horrible. Horrible. That being said, I love the 80s feeling of these polish strips. Sticks and Stones has a Van Halen theme of white, red and white lines. I actually wore these to the wedding I went to in Virginia a few weeks ago and it was a big hit. I got so many compliments on them and everyone thought I made the lines myself. I think these may be my favorite of the collection.

Sally Hansen Salon Effects Rock of Ages Collection: Zip It!



Sally Hansen Zip It!

I'm back in Knoxville, TN to do some science work so this is going to be a quick post. I love the Sally Hansen Salon Effects strips. I've already reviewed how to apply these so I'm not going to rehash that. Zip It! is part of the Rock of Ages collection and is a metallic silver with little zipper designs. At first I had no idea they were supposed to be zippered because the design is a bit small. I wish all the designs were like my middle and index fingers because you can see it better. I always have good luck with these lasting a long time and I wore these for over 3 days with very minimal chipping. Not my favorite design, but it's still cute.
