Sally Hansen (if such a person actually exists) is a woman after my own heart.
As much as I like to look good, life is too filled with other more compelling possibilities than sitting for upwards of twenty minutes to have my nails done. As a result I do mine my self and when time is really at a premium settle for polishless nails and hope that they escape notice. Last summer my nails got an upgrade when my gal Sal came out with a great product called Natural Shine Instant Nail Polish which I wrote about here. I loved it but it came only in clear and a barely nude color that needed a couple of coats .
Now Sally's done it again with an updated version that comes in several colors. This product is aptly called Color Quick and is a fast dry nail color pen that provides,as it says on the packaging, a Manicure in Minutes. Sally doesn't lie. You just click the top of the pen to dispense the color to the brush attached to the end. By the time you finish the last nail, the first one is dry.
As a bonus it boasts your nail's health because it contains anti oxidant Vitamins A& E to condition them and UV protection to keep the color fresh!
Cheers,
Barb

NAILS TO GO
A confession: until very recently I'd never had a summer when my nails were up to being noticed. Blame it on gardening or extensive time in salt water, but without fail two days after a manicure I was reaching for the remover to erase the remnants of chipped polish. Without polish my nails had that ill groomed look that was difficult to ignore.
Then in one of my aimless forays down the beauty aisle of my local drugstore I found Sally Hansen' Natural Shine Instant Nail Finish. Instant shine spoke directly to me and I immediately purchased it. The product comes in two shades, clear and a pink tint. I opted for the latte. and applied two coats as soon as I got home. The result was shiny, healthy looking , well groomed nails. The transformation took less than five minute and I was so pleased I spent more time than that admiring them. The attractive gold tone cylinder case housing the polish is perfect to tuck in your purse so you can even do your nails on the run. Now I have no more excuses for those ungroomed nails.
My daughter Joan, who has been badgering me to have my nails professionally buffed as she does, recently arrived from CA. She glanced at my nails and remarked, "I see you finally took my advice!" I just smiled.
