Beauty product of the week: Sally hansen natural shine
By Carrie | January 23, 2008
I know, I know. I should be writing more about our trip! I’m completely swamped at work and am trying my best to stay focused on getting that stuff done. But, I just had to take a moment out of my lunch hour to share this amazing beauty product find. I was looking through one of my magazines from the huge pile that was waiting for me on the return home (I think it was a copy of All You), and came across a helpful review of this nail product.
I never give myself manicures. I find they chip way too fast and aren’t worth the effort (Who can paint well with their left hand?). Even when we went to the manicurist for Sarah’s wedding a few years ago, I loved how it looked but again, one load of dishes when I got home and the whole thing was ruined.
In comes Sally Hansen natural shine. It’s similar to clear nail polish, but unlike clear nail polish, it creates a more subtle shine on your nails, like you’ve buffed them. It goes on and dries in seconds and , instead of ugly chipping, it seems to simply begin to fade. My nails are still shiny and I’ve taken two showers and done dishes since I put it on. It comes in clear and a pink tint. I got the clear, but I like it so much I might have to try out the pink as well. A definite must for any of us who are lazy about manicures!

Oooh! Excellent find, I can’t wait to get some (I hope I can find it here…) I am 100% in agreement with your stance on manicures. I never have time to do them, even though I love the way they look and always feel more “finished” when I do my nails. When I was working in the kitchen, I could never paint them, but now that I’m on the computer all day, there’s no excuse. I sometimes just put on a layer of topcoat, but that chips just like the regular polish. Can’t wait to try this out! Thanks for the hint!
