Oh it's Sally Hansen ~ in Rockstar Pink

Let's ROCK! in Rockstar Pink. Sally Hansen is here...

A bit of her background :  http://www.sallyhansen.com/about-us
Where it all began...
It was in the late 1950s when Sally Hansen, together with her chemist husband, pioneered a nail protection formula called Hard As Nails. Touted as “the nail clinic in a bottle,” Hard As Nails established Sally Hansen as what is now the number one brand of nail care.
From the beginning, Sally Hansen prided itself on producing quality nail care. The philosophy was simple: educate the consumer and develop quality, practical products that were competitively priced and easy to use.
While Hard As Nails continues to be a best seller, Sally Hansen has developed into the leading mega brand of nail treatment and color.
 Sally Hansen today
Today, the brand offers consumers solutions for every nail care problem and every manicure and pedicure need, with innovative products that incorporate the latest treatment technologies.
At Sally Hansen we have our fingers on the pulse of what’s new and fresh, partnering with top fashion designers to create and/or coordinate nail color as an accessory to their latest collections.
Consumers trust Sally Hansen to provide the best nail treatment and color that sets the trends.

So much more than nails
Not only are we the number one brand in nail color, we are also the number one in nail treatment and the number one in wax hair removal. We are innovators in everything beauty; from body care to quality beauty tools. And we have the legacy to prove it.

This Rockstar Pink was my second Sally Hansen Nail Polish.  Thank you so much to Shane, one of my sweetest and closest friend at work.  
One little girl was excited as I was.  Of course, my Chesca counted herself in. hahaha.  I really had to make her fingernails or else she'd gone mad. hahaha. 

Here's how her cute little fingers looked like.

Here are the bottle detail shots of the Rockstar Pink Sally Hansen.  It's a bit pricey around P 360.00







And here's how mine looked like.  So glittery pink and ready to party.  I love it big time!  It lasted on my fingernails around 3 weeks.  Until now there are some small parts remaining.  hahaha.

Have you used Sally Hansen Nail Polish?  If not, try it and you'll love it instantly.  Why?  It's easy to apply.  It dries up easily.  It doesn't bubble.  The color is full.  Stays longer.  The glitters don't smudge, it sticks.  If you have tried it, leave your comments below.  Let's talk about it here.




Playful Art by ModelPrefer Nail Polish ~ Thumbs-up!


Colors add to life.  Wherever there is, things turn out wonderfully ~ irresistible in nature.  One of my mom's many favorite stories is her pregnancy.  She said she knew I was a girl because she loved her red finger nail polish matched with her lavander preggy dress. Or is it? Haha. She enjoyed applying the color each time.  I guess it was sign.  I am a girl indeed. hahaha.  Not to mention while growing up, nail polishing has been one of my favorite beauty regimens.  Most girls do love it.

This interest was even handed down to my daughter (who else) and neice, Noelle.  They're only 6 but nail polishing is one of their play times.  I remember, when they were around 4, they played with some nail polish bought from Divisoria (where one can buy cheap items in bulk, mostly made from China).  Too bad, the polish ruined my daughter's fingers and toe nails.  They were melted and I was in shock.  No nails remained.  Her dad Chester was fuming mad for what had happened.  Who wouldn't be?  Noelle, who constantly washed her polish was saved from the incident.  After some months, Chesca's nails grew and so I promised she wouldn't apply cheap polish again.  We just started putting some colors back this year 2015.  But this time with high-end and branded nail polish, even from Australia.

I would like to thank Charlone Keith Licayu, Shane's hubby for this present from Australia when he had this business meeting there. The box was for Reizel, Chona and me.  Awww!! thumbs-up for you Charlone!!!  and tight hugs to Shane.  She is one blessed soul!!! 

I am undeniably excited to share this nail adventure the first time I saw the package.  Who wouldn't be?!

MODELSPREFER (SPECIAL EFFECTS) Kit comes in three categories ~ Nail Polish with 2 base coat colors White and Fashion Pink, 1 clear top coat.  Second are the 3 Glitter Nails with brush in plain white, silver white, and gold. Third are the 3 Sugar Nails with funnel in Sherbet (deep pinkish), Gobstopper (rainbow colored) and Crystallized (white silvery). Fourth are the 2 Stud Nails with applicator in heart and metal (diamond) shapes. So this set was worth $AUS22.99 (P793.19 in pesos).  For me, it's quite pricey but I guess for a set of all 15, it's alright, right mate? haha.



Here's how the box looks like. The title name Special Effects speaks for the box itself, right?

Chesca was super excited so I made her two hands after we cleaned up before bedtime.  We designed it to be retro.  She liked it!! What a retro little girl.

Of course I had to make mine.  At first I only finished my left hand.  It was so funny going to work with my left hand made and my right not.  The following day at work, Reizel continued working on my right.  hahaha.  I just did the finishing touches.  I wanted to be ready for Chesca's Field Trip.  I chose to use gobstopper sugar nails after the white base coat.  Here's how it looked like.  The reason why it is called sugar nails ~ so sugarlike beads.  You might feel uncomfortable at first since it was bumpy but after a while, you'd get use to it.  I even had a hard time peeing because I couldn't use all my fingers at first.  Each sugar nail stuck so well and yeah, it was sure to stay.


 As a first timer with designed nails, it was exciting.  Exploring another nail art for a while is fun to do especially with my daughter and friends.

Word of Advice:

1.Make sure when you try this nail art, you don't wash clothes or do anything that might ruin it.  Besides any nail art won't last a long time.  A week or so, it may.
2. Make sure after you try it, apply nail hardener because it may weaken nails.

So, what are you waiting for? Try it ~ you may want to visit this site : http://www.radiuspharmacy.co.nz/p/ModelsPrefer-Special-Effects-Nail-Set-15pc?i=77170557
