Review: Sally Hansen Advanced Hard As Nails Top Coat

What a mouth full.

Recently, I was stalking the beauty section at Walmart, like I frequently do ;), looking for a new top coat. I was already way over my limit for what I wanted to spend on my Wally World trip so I was looking for something a bit cheaper than Seche Vite, which I have been using for a while.

I picked this up at a steal of about $3 in change. On the ride home I was thinking... I hope this isn't going to be just a cheapy top coat like most. Well, with just the first use I was thoroughly impressed!

It gave a really nice glossy finish to my nails, making them look like smooth colored glass, which I loved! It dried super quickly, which is a MUST for me! After a few days I had noticed no chipping and my nails were hard and strong, just as this product claims to make your nails.

This top coat kept my manicure for days with no chipping or peeling, unlike Seche Vite which I can easily just peel off within one day! I think this Top Coat is much better than Seche Vite, especially since it's only a fraction of the price!

I've heard such beauty bloggers as FleurDeForce and MissGlamorazzi raving about Sally Hansen Mega Shine Top Coat, and some other of Sally Hansen top coats, but I figured that with those ones being $5-7 and this one only being $3, I wouldn't be getting a quality product, but this top coat is a must have!

I doubt I will ever buy Seche Vite again, unless it's on sale. This top coat has replaced it for me!

Hope you enjoyed.

Juicy Luscious Lip!

I've been using this technique ALL summer for huge, juicy, fruity, gorgeous, pink lips! 

It's very simple even though there are a few steps.

Let's go!

These are the products I used listed from left to right.

NYX Round Lipstick in Strawberry Milk. Soft Lips Conditioning Lip Tint in Pearl Tint. NYX Pot Lacquer in Coffee Run. C.L. Bigelow Blueberry Rose Salve. Wet N Wild Glassy Gloss.

So the first step is to condition your lips with the Blueberry Rose Salve.

Next I added the Soft Lips Pearl Tint to add our first layer of shine. This gives the lips a subtle gloss without using gloss.

Over the tint I used NYX Round Lipstick in Strawberry Milk.

This is what it looked like.

Next I used NYX Pot Lacquer in Coffee Run to give a level of sparkle and gloss!

Now the lips look like this. Gorgeous and Luscious, but for that shine to look like dew drops on some fresh fruit we need to add one more layer of shine, which is the Wet N Wild Glassy Gloss, my favorite clear gloss ever.

These are the finished lips with shine that will last all day!

Hope you try this out!
