Sally Hansen Color Quick Chrome Red


Hmm... Here we have another 75% off Sally Hansen that is cool, but I'm glad I didn't pay full price for.
It is in a click top pen, so you push one end until the brush has color, then paint away.

I'll start with the pros... It is very quick & easy. 1 coat had excellent coverage. Though I wouldn't call it red, it's a great color. The brush is very full and spreads easily over the nail. It dries super fast, so no top coat is necessary (and makes it look bad, in fact).

Cons: holy brushstrokes, batman! These fade significantly when the polish dries. The brush gets rather gunky. It left thin streaks of no polish (see my pinky).

All in all, worth the $2 I paid, but definitely not the $10 regular price. I looked on several blogs and most people seem to love these for stamping. I might hang on to it for that, if I decide to try my hand at more extensive nail art.

  1. I bought 2 of these and you're right...not really great. The color is nothing like it shows on the package. They do dry really quickly which is why they've gone into my daughters bag of toe polish. Also, the sorta matte finish Is not for me.

  2. Do you have the red? If not, I'll bring mine and B can have it. I'm sure it'll be mashing on her little toes! :)

  3. No, I don't have the red. I'm sure she'd love it.
