Sally Hansen Salon Effects

Disclaimer: I received this product complimentary for testing and review purposes from Influenster. The following is indeed my true and honest opinion of this product.

If you are unfamiliar with the Sally Hansen Salon Nail Effects, then this post will give you basic knowledge about the product. I have tried Jamberry Nails, Kiss Nail Dress, and Incoco strips in the past, but not Sally Hansen. There isn't any particular reason as to why I have not tried this before, other than the fact that I just haven't had the impulse to buy them. Luckily, I received this kit in my Influenster Spring Beauty VoxBox.

This Kit Included:

16 Nail Polish Strips in 320 Kitty, Kitty, 

Cuticle Stick

Mini File and Buffer

Detailed Instructions

Quick Facts about the Sally Hansen Salon Effects:

No dry time
Lasts up to 10 days
Removes easily with nail polish remover
40 styles to choose from
Retails for about 9.99 at chain drug stores, food stores and mass merchandisers nationally. (I'm pretty sure I've seen it cheaper at WalMart)

Application:

Application is fairly easy, especially since I have experience with nail strips. If you follow the directions and take your time, you will achieve a fairly quick and inexpensive mani. 


I did notice that there was a tip that sated: "If possible, for a uniform look, avoid over-stretching patterns." It is easy to over-stretch the strip so be light and gentle when applying. Also, it can be easy to have ripples and bubbles, but like I said, if your patient, it really will turn out for the best. 

Here are the instructions included in the kit:

And the finished product:

I did not add a top coat because I wanted to test the strips out alone. They did very well seeing as I got about 5 days of wear before chipping occurred. For the price that these retail, I will be purchasing more. 

After testing this product I rate it 10/10 because the price, application, and total length of wear seems to uphold my expectations.

Influenster Spring Beauty VoxBox

Once again, Influenster has sent me another complimentary VoxBox for testing purposes.

As you can see above, this is the Spring Beauty VoxBox. This is now my 3rd VoxBox from Influenster, and I think so far this is my favorite! They really outdid themselves here!

Onto the contents:

Here is the Card provided with descriptions and prices for full size items. The only item in the box not full size was the Aveeno Daily Moisturizing Body Wash. Oddly enough, The Dr. Scholls For Her Inserts were not listed. Bonus Item? 

SheerCover Duo Concealer: Medium/Tan (0.05 oz)

Aveeno Daily Moisturizing Body Wash (2 oz)

ChapStick Lip Shield 365 (0.15 oz)

Sally Hansen Salon Effects Real Nail Polish Strips: 320 Kitty, Kitty(16 strips)

Bath & Body Works Fine Fragrance Mist:Sweet Pea (8 oz).

SoyJoy Bar: Strawberry (1.05 oz)

Dr. Scholls For Her Ball of Foot Cushions (one pair)

So after I totaled the price for each item in this VoxBox, at the lowest price given, this box is worth $63.81. At the highest cost for each item this box is worth $66.61. This does not include the Dr. Scholl's Inserts  because it was not listed on the card. After Googling, the price it seems to average around $6. That boosts the cost of this VoxBox to $69.81 (at the lowest prices) - $72.61 (highest prices)

After receiving this VoxBox, I rate it 10/10. Everything is great and will be fun to try! The only item I've tried before was Sweet Pea and I adore that scent. It reminds me of gym in 8th grade! With that being said, I cannot wait to receive my next VoxBox

Did you get a VoxBox? Regardless, what are opinions? What's your favorite item?

Hope to hear from you guys soon!

Spoiler Alert! Spring Beauty VoxBox from Influenster

Okay, I know the joy of receiving a VoxBox from Influenster is not only that it's 100% FREE, but that you have no idea whats inside that white box until your mailman drops it off on your doorstep.

If you do not want know what's in your Spring Beauty VoxBox until it's delivered, I HIGHLY suggest you quit reading! But if you're like me, MUST find out now, then keep reading...

Earlier on twitter someone "checked in" their VoxBox via their Influenster account and tweeted it. I could not resist, so I clicked the link and checked it out. Ive never thought of doing that, but here it is!

The only item pictured but not listed is the Dr. Scholls Inserts for Her. I hope it is a featured item because I'd love to try them out as I'm on my feet all day at work.

I do not regret "spoiling" my Spring Beauty VoxBox because it's one thing to see the picture, and another to un-box each of these goodies!

What do you think of these items? Are you recieving a Spring Beauty VoxBox?
