Sally Hansen Salon Effects Real Nail Polish Strips

I really like these they are so easy to apply and look great and last as long as they say,there are so many great designs to choose from and they are great to mix and match,I definitely choose these over nail polish

Love these!

Although I am a gel-nails girl now, I used to use these all the time and definitely recommend them.

They are so easy to apply, just remove the backing, put on your nail, file off at the tip and then remove the front tape. I actually even applied them in the car during a road trip to Hamilton. I had so many comments on my nails that night!

They last pretty well, I would normally wear mine for around a week. They definitely last longer than normal nail polish, but shorter than gel polish.

Highly recommend these for party nails, special occasion nails, or if you're just like me and like to rock the nail art.

Nail polish strips like this are perfect especially when you want to look like you put in heaps of effort on your nails but don't want to spend heaps of time doing them.

The Sally Hansen strips are easy to work with and apply, they're also quite flexible so can be manipulated slightly if you need to adjust one to fit your nail. They also require minimal drying time once your top coat is applied which is a bonus too. These are REALLY long lasting to the point where they pretty much only come off once you decide to remove them. They also don't chip easily either - mine last for about 3 weeks before I see any chipping on my nails.

I do find that if you have any unused strips from an open packet and want to use at a later date, they do dry out fairly quickly.

I also found that applying them on my nails when they were longer was easier, especially when you're removing the excess part of the strip. It gets a bit tricky (and sore) trying to remove excess when your nails are short.

I am a huge nail fan and do different nails weekly. I have used probably 50 different styles of these and there too be so many that I still haven't tried. I admit my first application following the instructions took me awhile but with practice it gets better. This product provides the ease of nail polish but without the drying time and is easily removed with nail polish remover. I have had so many compliments and will definitely continuexcited to use this range.

I was granted an opportunity to try the 'Steel of the Night' colour of Sally Hansen stick on nails, which is similar to a French manicure, but with grey/silver tips. In case you were wondering, this is really nail polish. It even smells like nail polish.

To begin with I found the instructions slightly confusing, fortunately there are 16 tips in the box (two to one strip) so if you waste a one or two (as I did) it won't be a problem. Once I got going I found that this skill was much easier to learn than with a bottle of nail polish and the finish resulted in beautiful clean cut lines. I also really liked not having to wait for the product to dry because often when painting my nails I start doing something else and ruin them.

So overall I really liked this product and though it took a little getting used to, it was easy to use. One thing I will say is that you end up with a lot of rubbish at the end of it. But for a professional looking finish the product it worth the price.

I actually really loved this product. The nail strips were super convenient (although I wish I could find a French Manicure one) and had very intricate designs that everyone complimented me on. Nails lasted a week even with doing a lot of chores and generally being rough on the hands, toenails lasted a month. They fit my nails really well. My only bone to pick is that they smell positively toxic when you open the packet (onslaught of nail polish fumes) and that you have to use the entire pack in one go. They dry out like real nail polish if you're a bit slower with application or have leftovers.

Such an easy way to get funky looking nails. I found these easy to apply. The hardest parties picking what style to buy

I found these fiddly the first couple of times, but have stuck with them and now prefer to nail polish. I find that if you lay out the ones you are going to apply, it makes things simpler. And i tend to go for strips that are slightly too big and file down the sides too, ensures full nail coverage. Great for occasions when you want something a bit different, and dont have time to visit a salon.

I had to grab these as soon as I saw they had skull and crossbones patterns :D I've used nail strips before so I didn't have any issues applying them - they were easier than some other brands I have used.

I find that with all nail strips they last a lot longer on your toenails.

These stuck down well to my nails and didn't leave any gaping sides. I put a topcoat over them and they lasted about a week before starting to come off, which is a lot better than the OPI ones I tried...

I will purchase these again and recommend them to everyone! Everyone should try them as they're so easy to use and come in a variety of designs.

The only thing I didn't like is there aren't a whole heap of designs that personally attract me but I am picky :P
