I’m not
in love with the brushes, I find the stem too wide, and the brush takes some
getting used to. Drying time is good.
I
applied 2 coats on all the swatches, on the ring finger, that has more pronounced
ridges, I applied 3 coats. But even so the polish falls of my ridges, so if you
have ridges, this is NOT a 5-steps in one for you, you need a ridge filler base
coat.
I’m not too
impressed by the finish, I do not find it as shiny as this series claims to be,
so I still would add a top coat.
I midten af november gav jeg mit første indtryk af Sally Hansen Complete Salon Manicure, klik HER. Kollektionen hævder at være en
5-i-et lak, altså inklusive grund- og top lak, så jeg på disse billeder ikke
brugt nogen af delene på de nedenstående billeder.
Jeg er ikke vild med penslen, stammen er for bred og
penslen skal man vænne sig til.
Tørretiden er ret hurtig.
Jeg har lagt 2 lag lak, på ringfingeren har jeg dog lagt 3
lag, da mine riller er særli udtalte på den finger. Men lakken falder alligevel
af mine riller, så hvis du har riller kan du IKKE bruge denne uden en ridge
filler base coat.
Jeg var heller ikke særlig imponeret over finish, der i
mine øjne ikke er skinnende som de hævder, jeg synes helt klart, at det er
nødvendigt at bruge en toplak.
Kook-A-Mango 560 er en creme lak i en klar, rød koralfarve,
en rigtigt flot sommer farve. To lag dækkede ikke 100%, man kan stadig ane den
hvide del af neglen gennem farven.
Back to
the Fuchsia 530 is a hot pink color with a subtle shimmer, I like it a lot. Two coats did not
give 100% opacity, but it's better than Kook-a-mango.
Back to
the Fuchsia 530 er en creme, smuk, hot pink farve, med et let shimmer. Den dækker ikke 100% ved 2 lag, men er bedre end Kook-a-mango.
Pedal to the Metal 330 er en metallic, grå lavendel farve
med tendens til mærker efter penselen, men jeg har givet den væk, så jeg kunne
ikke swatche den på ny, som jeg gjorde med de andre.
Fairy Teal 450 er en smuk creme petrol (blågrøn), og jeg
er vild med farven.
The brush stem on these is quite wide indeed. I've gotten used to the brush now, but that stem still gives me some trouble.
SvarSletYou are right Karen, the brush is easy to get used to now that I'm much more used to different brushes and painting nails, but the stem is still a bit annoying :)
SletI agree with you both- I've actually adjusted to the wide brush and don't mind it so much anymore. But that stem! Ugh. I feel like I'm threading a needle trying to get it back into the bottle without slopping polish from the stem of the brush all around the rim of the bottle. (Pet peeve, obviously). ;)
SletLOL the threading a needle comparison is just like I feel too, and I hate messy rim's too :)
SletI had to get used to the brush as well, but it didn't took long.
SvarSletActually if you look really closely in the light Back to the Fuchsia 530 has purple/blue shimmer in it! It's AMAZING!
Aja, I had noticed the shimmer, but not the purple/blue one, I'm not sure it in my bottle LOL - but I will have a closer look, thanks :)
Sletfairy teal looks the best in this bunch :-D
SvarSletYes, I agree, that's my favorite too + Back to the Fuchsia is so vibrant and it spells summer - we need that soon :)
SletThey are all very pretty! Look great for summer!(:
SvarSletThanks, and yes, I look forward to "fuchsia-time" LOL
Sletlovely shades!
SvarSletThank you, Shannara :)
SvarSletI have a few of the SH salon manicure line... I like them well enough (agreed that the brush takes some getting used to), but have never found they are truly an all-in-one polish. I always use base and top coat. I wonder why they even bother trying to market it as an all-in-one product? I'll still buy them for the colours!
SvarSletI'm glad you don't think so either - but i agree, I'll come back for more colors too, and I look forward to using them with base coat and top coat!
SletThey are pretty colors! Hate wide brushes cause my nails are so small. And no matter what they swallow my pinky! messy!
SvarSletHahaha, poor pinkie - I'm glad you like the colors :)
