REVIEW - SALLY HANSEN INSTA-DRI NAIL POLISH

If you don't have a lot of time on your hands, you certainly don't have time to beautify your hands. 

Forget weekly manis and pedis. Just a quick polish eats up a precious half an hour that you could use for doing something productive. 


Plus, doesn't sitting idle and drying your nails seem to take forever? It's like watching paint dry...literally.


To polish my nails with quicker speed, I picked up Sally Hansen's Insta-Dri nail polish. (You like the classy, nude color I chose?) 

The polish is supposed to dry instantly. Let's see how it worked...

The Claim: 

"Nail color covers in just one coat, brilliantly."

My Take:

- One coat looked light and transparent. To get a creamier result, I applied two coats.

 

The Claim: 

"The exclusive Flexiglass Complex combines beautiful, brilliant shine and super strong wear."

My Take:

- Yes, the finish was shiny...right after I finished. But nails became dull in the next couple of days.

- The polish chipped and rubbed off as usual — not any more special than others I have tried.

The Claim:

"The Perfectionist Brush™ contours to any nail, so color always glides on precisely, quickly, flawlessly."

My Take:

- Now this is what I really liked about the polish. The flat brush head was very easy to use. 

- Totally glided on easily. It provided a smooth finish.

Did it dry instantly?

Heck no! Do they ever do what they claim? 

However, the polish dried faster than normal nail polish, in about half the regular time.

One coat took about two minutes. Two coats took five minutes.

Overall Rating: 3/5

Re-purchase? Yes. Because it did save me half the time and provided a decent result.

Choosing a more age-appropriate color.

Flat brush head made application easier and smoother.

After one coat, nails looked light and sheen.

After two coats, nails have a creamier, heavier finish.
