Review: Sally Hansen Insta-Dri Emerald Express


Colors like this are what make me desperately wish I had a job that allowed me to wear whatever I want on my fingers, because only 2 days before I have to remove it?  Not enough.


Application: Flawless!  I love this brush!!  The rounded end makes it perfect for getting into the corners without getting messy, and the tip is great for trying to get even coverage on the tips if you've got splits and tears like I do.  The only thing I dislike is that the flat stem causes a lot of excess polish to gather there and drip down, making it a bit hard to control.  Luckily it still went on smooth with very little streakage.

Color:
Absolutely gorgeous.  A very subtle, slightly shimmery duochrome that shifts from an emerald green to a cobalt blue.  They should have named this color something having to do with peacock feathers, because that's what it reminds me of.

Work Appropriateness:
Obviously, this one's not going to cut it anywhere, which is a shame.

Rating:
A solid 5/5.  This color is sheer perfection.


Picture time!

Haven't had a lot of sunlight today, so here it is in shade.

Indoor lighting.  Zebra nail strip still in place, though I'm not crazy about it paired with this color.

Trying to display some of the duochrome characteristics, but it was hard to get a good angle.

Oh man, I can't get over how much I love this color!

Up next: mini-haul from CVS, because as we have established, I have no self-control.
