Advantages: Keeps nail polish fast for longer
Disadvantages: Still takes a long time to dry

...creation. ~~MADE BY~~ Sally Hansen www.sallyhansen.com. I had a look on the website, and there are products for every conceivable (and some not so conceivable) nail treatments. As well as this one, they produce another similar product called Kwikdry, although I would imagine they are more or less the same. ~~WHAT I THOUGHT~~ I used this for the first time on a French manicure, and nervously applied it over the still tacky nail polish. Was it ...
...did take the precaution of applying it to only one nail and continued to flap my hands around in the time honoured fashion. Surprisingly, it did dry more quickly than the nail polish left to its own devices. However, although it is touch dry in 30 seconds, remember, so is alot of nail polsh, but you wouldn't necessarily immerse your hands in water until rock hard. The manicure did last for nearly a week, apart from a little bit of chipping on the ... Read review

Advantages: Smooth, long-lasting
Disadvantages: The colour's a tad 'eew'

As with all Sally Hansen products, one expects quality above all else - I mean, let's face it, you're paying for it! This Chrome Nail Makeup (in spite of it's quite frankly ridiculous name!) does not fail to deliver on this score. It is a thick glossy varnish, which glides on easily, sets quickly and does not smudge. It is easy to apply and you need only use one coat for a more subtle look, or two for a bolder nail. Th bottle says it contains a ...
...the usual pleasant pastels that Sally Hansen does so well. If you're looking for a slightly more alternative nail colour, then perhaps this is the product for you, as it will protect your nails and stay on longer than other bright metallic polishes supermarkets sell. Personally though, I'm going to stick with my Rouge Noir when I want a dramatic nail! ... Read review

Advantages: has a wide brush for applying polish
Disadvantages: none

...I would also recommend OPI for their nail polishes and french manicures you can buy them at some outlets for £9.95 although they maybe last years colours. The french manicure polish would be ideal for brides they have a great shine and many many different colours. You can access OPI webiste to gain more information. Can only recommend OPI from a personal point of view. ... Read review

Advantages: Quick drying, high shine, great consistency
Disadvantages: Quite expensive when compared with other brands

This Nails Inc Collection is great for creating that perfect french manicure look. The pack contains three polishes including the white nail tip, the neutral varnish for the nail and the top gloss coat. The varnish is excellent quality as you can apply it really easily because of its great consistency and texture. I had this for a Christmas present but i think they retail around £20 which is not bad value for money considering how long they last. ...
...and last around a week before it starts to chip. This collection is by far the best manicure set i have ever owned and is well worth the money. The varnishes come in a box which is great because you can always give it to your girly friends as a gift. ... Read review

Advantages: lovely smell, easily absorbed
Disadvantages: a little pricey,

I purchsed this product after visiting a nail salon, and although it cost a lot more than i would usually spend, it was worth it just for the smell. The moisturiser itself is a thick lotion and absorbs easily into the skin, and the smell its delicious. It did not leave any stickiness on my skin, however, i would reccommend you dont use this if you plan on wearing purfume, as the smell is very strong, and could over power the scent you are wearing. ...
...luscious fruits and sweet smells, then this is the moisturiser for you, if not, then i wouldnt buy it. I paid just under £10 for it, but a little does go a long way. I primarily used it for my hands and nails, but then started using it all over. There are a couple of other flavours i think, in the range, if this one is not for you. Overall, a great product, and nice smelling. ... Read review
