Sally Hansen Nail Effects

I've never used them but my friend LOVES them!! She uses them and so do her 2 teenaged daughters.

Let us know what you think...

I just bought some and I love them. I cannot paint my own nails to save my life and my manicures last about 4 days before they look awful from the chipping and wearing off. They lasted about 7 days for me, which is good since I type at work every day. They were pretty easy to put on, once you get the hang of it and I bought 2 more boxes I liked them so much. They are worth the money, especially considering manicure prices.

Are you talking about the stick on polish ? If so, I have used that on my toes and love it ! It lasts me 2-3 weeks and looks good. It just comes off with polish remover. And they are fairly easy to put on.

My mom tried them first and really liked them so I got some too! I also really like them. There are a few extra in the box so I used those and the excess from my finger nails to do my toes too so I didn't have to buy 2 boxes, lol! From my experience, they stay on a lot longer than regular polish does and they don't chip as easily. The only thing that my mom and I noticed is after we took them off, our nails were really dry. It will take a couple of nails to get the hang of applying them correctly. I think the girls will like them as well!

Yay, I am glad you asked! Sorry I have no advice, but I keep eyeing them, wondering how they are. They cost more than the average bottle of polish, so I didnt want to get them if they are junky.
I hope we get good advice. ;)

My 15 year old daughter has used them and loved them. I have helped her put them on too. In our experience, they last way longer than regular nail polish. Make sure that you clean your nails with polish remover before putting them on to get rid of any oils that may be on your nails. That way the polish will stick better. They do take a bit more rubbing to get off (I think it is thicker than regular nail polish, thus why they last longer). Good luck!

I was actually part of a test panel for these - as an adult, I personally do not like them! They were relatively easy to put on but they don't last long; they chip and you cannot repair or patch any spots that chip off.

On the other hand... my daughter (age 13) was also part of the test panel and she liked them! They were fun because of the different patterns you can get. They are easy to put on and take off. And being a young girl she didn't really need them to last long.

They are great for a group of girls to do at a party/sleep-over!! They come in some really cute prints and bright colors.

My only advice: follow the directions and be patient!!!

Good luck and have fun!!

Some caveats in the comments that I did read (but I didn't take the time to read through all of them).

I've never used them - never had fingernails worthy of calling attention to, lol! That's no longer the case, so I'm intrigued, too, and looking forward to other opinions!

I have bought them for my 9 year old daughter. She put them on and took them off easily. and had fun with it. I didn't try them personally though.
