Rue Reviews: Sally Hansen Salon Effect Strips Day by Day (Days 1-3)

 Back in March, I gave you my first impression on Sally Hansen's Salon Effects in Brattle Snake . http://ruesworld52.blogspot.com/2014/03/sally-hansen-salon-effects-strips-first.html
In this post and a few more I am going to be giving you a day by day review with the final post being a final review and whether or not I will buy them again.


Some Disclaimers first. I wore this back in end of January into the beginning of February  and took notes on what I was thinking. It's just been so busy that I have not been able to sit down and type up the blog. I am going to give you the date that the picture was taken. I put these on the Thursday night January 30. Also I am right handed so there is to me more wear on the right hand, except for the first day, I tried to take a picture of both hands. It was really hard to take a picture of my right hand since I am right handed.   Also I am sorry that the pictures are kind of crappy, but I do describe what is going on.

Day 1: Friday January 31, 2014.

 Today my hands have been in water a lot, and we all know that water can destroy a manicure within minutes. I hand washed my car and washed dishes. With any regular polish, my polish would come off in big chunks. I see no chipping or signs of wear on with hand. It's like when I put them on. The real test will come at work tonight. At work, my hands are in cleaning chemicals and water a lot. Manicure typically don't stand a chance.

 

Day 2: Saturday February 1, 2014

 

 Left hand

Right hand

This is after one night of work. As I mentioned most of my manicure don't last one night. There is some slight signs of wear on my right hand , but you cannot really tell unless you look really closely. The left hand had no real visible chips. This is only the first night of work, and we have two more to go, so lets see how it holds up the whole weekend. One thing is I don't know if I am going to be able to keep this on for the full 10 days, for as I said in the first impressions, I am not really liking the pattern, but I am going to try and keep these on as long as possible to see if it will last 10 days as they claim.  

Day 3: Sunday February 2, 2014

I did not get a picture for Day 3 because there was not anymore wear than there was on day 2. They have now been on my nails for two work shifts. The pattern is started to grow on me though. One things I am starting to see is the nail around the cuticle as my nails grow. As long as they look ok I am going to try and keep them on.

I am going to stop this post here, you will have to come back for the rest and how they held up for the remaining work shift.

See you soon,

Peaceful and Happy Thoughts,
