ALU’s 365 of Untrieds – Sally Hansen Gray by Gray
365 of Untrieds is my personal challenge to weed through the polishes in the ALU stash that I’ve been wanting to try but just haven’t gotten around to.
I’m blaming the rainstorms and overcast, cloudy skies on my apparent grey polish streak. I think this is the 3rd or 4th grey in the Untrieds and we’re only a month in. Hopefully sunny weather and fun brights are in my future because I am OVER this blech, fall-esque weather. When the Sally Hansen Complete Salon Manicure line debuted, I raved about the formula and its durability. It is, without question, my favorite drugstore brand. At first I questioned the marketing claims about ten day wear without base or top coat but my skepticism was easily shot down. If you missed my original test, check it out here. Today I’m wearing a shade from the line that I can’t believe I haven’t tried before now, Sally Hansen Gray by Gray. |
Sally Hansen Salon Effects & Hellcats Giveaway
Sally Hansen Salon Effects Real Nail Polish Strips to be featured on The CW’s Hellcats, Tuesday May 3rd at 9/8c
When it comes to my weekly TV indulgences, The CW has got my number. Yes, my DVR looks like it was programmed like a fifteen year old girl and I don’t care. This season one of my new faves is Hellcats starring Aly Michalka of Aly & AJ, Bandslam, Easy A, etc.
If you aren’t watching Hellcats each week, I don’t know WHAT you’re doing on Tuesdays. Seriously, if you loved Bring It On, and don’t tell me you didn’t, you have no reason not to watch. What really hooked me was the appearance of Gale Harold from Queer As Folk. I will follow him anywhere so Hellcats, PLEASE upgrade him from recurring to series regular!
Being that I am a fan of both Hellcats and Sally Hansen Salon Effects, I’m hosting a fun giveaway. Keep reading to see what you could win.

Sally Hansen Salon Effects Nail Polish Strips Review
It’s no secret that I’m not a nail art fan. I’ve always said that I appreciate the artistry, creativity and certainly the skill involved but it’s just not my bag. I do see designs from time to time that wow me but I won’t be jumping on the nail art bandwagon anytime soon.
However for those of you who are into nail art but professional services, including Minx, are out of your budget and DIY’ing isn’t in your skill set, Sally Hansen has a solution for you. The recently launched line, Sally Hansen Salon Effects, are nail appliqués made from real nail polish. These easy to apply nail polish strips come in an array of styles including solid color glitters and neons for those of us looking for a zero dry time, on-the-go manicure solution. I recently gave the strips a go putting the “Lasts Up To 10 Days” claim to the test. Keep reading to see how they fared. |
