...discovered that the product was Sally Hansen Diamond Strength Instant Nail Hardener. It claimed that the product helped stop nails breaking and instantly bonded to them with a diamond hard coating. You can’t get much harder than diamond I thought, so it sounded good so far. The next bit was the best because it said the product virtually ended splitting, cracking and peeling. It also said results guaranteed.
This all sounded very impressive especially ... ...tag. I hadn’t ever used Sally Hansen products before and wasn’t aware of how much they cost. This one was a whopping £8.99. I must admit I did have a look at other strengtheners after this because I was put off by the price but I the end I decided that I’d treat myself to it after all they had guaranteed results.
I work in Boots so I did get a discount off the product but if you are considering purchasing it I’d search the Internet for some cut-price ...

I bought two bottles of Sally Hansen Diamond Strength instant nail hardener in an offer from Boots. I was going to buy a bottle of Sally Hansen Hard as Nails because my nails have been really weak lately and I've had great success with it in the past. But I saw this "better" version complete with shiney bottle and bits of real diamond on offer at 12 pounds for 2 bottles and decided to "upgrade". Normally this product retails at 7.95 per 13ml bottle ... ...Nails and Maximum Growth by Sally Hansen I assumed it would simply be a case of following the directions and having lovely strong nails again. This is a brand I've always trusted and recommended to loads of friends so naturally I didn't stop to think this particular product would be any different. How wrong I was.
The directions for use are simple; shake gently. Apply 1 - 2 coats to bare nails. Wear alone or under nail colour. Straight forward? ...

Advantages: Product sounds good, make your nails shiny Disadvantages: in everyday life/work doesnt work quite so well!
...2 coats of your favourite Sally Hansen nail colour.
Simple. I got home, cleaned my nails, and followed the instructions applying two coats. Nails looked lovely already. The shine it gives makes your nails look very healthly. (I did not add any nail colour)
The next day at work, spent my hour in the coffee shop and it started to chip. Thought right, Ill have to be even more careful. I even brought it to work in my handbag so I could do touchups. ... ...for months now and my nails are becoming stronger due to another Sally Hansen product which isnt listed on Ciao.
The price of Diamond Strenght Nail Hardner is from £5.00 - £6.99 Quite expensive for a product which does exactly the same as say a Rimmel base coat. ...

...protects my nail varnish.
Sally Hansen Diamond Strength Nail Hardener comes in a small silver bottle and costs £7.95 from Boots for just 13.3ml.
But - it is well worth it.
WHAT IS IT?
+++++++++++
Sally Hansen claim that their Diamond Strength Nail Hardener contains real diamond particles and that it provides a shatterproof protective coating. Apparantly it also strengthens the nails by bonding together the weaker layers of the nail plate. It ... ...put on another coat of Sally Hansen. (I always allow each coat to dry well in between)
Using this as a top coat ensures that my nail varnish stays chip free for days.
I like to use this because the first and second coats dry really quickly - there is no waiting around for them to dry so that you can get on with painting your nails.
ANY BAD POINTS?
++++++++++++++++
The only downside to this product is the cost. I have found it cheaper online ...

Diamond Lil Review ofSally Hansen Diamond Strengthby
mornev
Advantages: It works, with a little help from its friends. Disadvantages: Rather expensive
...salon idea altogether.
The Sally Hansen ‘Diamond Strength’ Premium Nail Hardener caught my eye in my local Boots the Chemist. We’re well into matt, brushed aluminium in our house, ever since we bought our new flat screen television, also known as ‘the awesome beast’. Morty really thinks that when we eventually buy our new Mini there is only one choice of colour, matt brushed aluminium. Hence, the opaque silver bottle ... ...be taken as evidence that Sally Hansen’s ‘Diamond Strength’ is wholly responsible for my longer and stronger nails. Whenever I spend what I consider to be a proportionally large amount of money on a beauty care product I automatically indulge more time and attention on maintenance. This is in part to justify that the product was worth the money and that I haven’t been conned and myself wanting to see some positive results. ...

Advantages: soft and smooth hands, intensive treatment Disadvantages: a little greasy to begin with
...I hate the way this cold weather leaves my hands; chapped and weather-beaten so yesterday I decided to invest in a decent hand treatment to improve their appearance. I’ve already sorted out my nails with SallyHansen’sDiamondStrength so I thought I may as well get my hands looking lovely for Christmas too.
I haven’t actually used Botanics products before but have heard a lot about them and know they use plant extracts, so I decided to settle for one of these treatments rather than ordering from Lush (I am trying to limit myself). Plus I work in Boots so would get a 22.5% discount off any of these products.
When I spotted this one I liked the idea of an overnight treatment because if I wear hand cream in the day I fend that most of them become too greasy.
The product is white in colour and comes in a see-through tube...

...on the front states the name of the product and on the back are the ingredients and a short description.
The Shock Resistant range of cosmetics have been developed by L’Oreal laboratories who claim that they are resistant to everything due to the flexibility of the products formula. The nail polish is said to deposit a stretchy film that coats the nail offering resistant protection.
They claim that the mirror-gloss colours are enriched with light-reflecting pigments and that when this is applied to the nail it creates and appearance of mini-mirrors that reflect light giving a radiant colour and shine.
At least this is what they claim. I know companies have come up with some far-fetched claims in the past but to be honest I think L’Oreal was having a laugh here.
Having recently got my nails in great condition thanks to SallyHansen’s...

Another one of my bargain buys...my local savers really is the business!! This cost £2.00, which considering the cost of many lip treatments wasn't badly priced at all. I have tried to find out the RRP but can't find it on the internet... if anyone finds more
PRICE
£4 - £7 depending on where you get it from.
PACKING
The nail polish is packed in a box along with an instruction pamphlet that introduces you to the product. The nail polish is in a transparent bottle with blue writing, the liquid in it has a... more
The following opinion has taken two weeks to prepare, not because of the time it has taken to write (although I do admit to being a slow at typing) but because I had to test the product to make sure it worked and I had to get it added here on ciao. So I... more
