Sally Hansen Salon Effects Nail Strips

Hello Everyone! Here is a product review for you all!

 I recently tried out these nail strips by Sally Hansen that were sent to me complimentary of Influenster for testing and review purposes. They came in my Spring Beauty Vox Box and I was so excited to try them out.
The Style that I got was #310 Wild Child
It is the Zebra Print design. This design is typically not what I would reach for so it was nice to try out something new. 

Here is the product information:

According to Sally Hansen's Website, these nail strips are easy to apply and all you need to do is "peel, apply and file! No dry time, lasts up to 10 days, removes easily with nail polish remover, and there are 40 must have styles!"

Where to buy this:
You can buy this product at the drugstores such as CVS, Walgreens, and Rite Aid.
They are also available at some food stores and mass merchandisers nationally.
The are usually around $8.99-$9.99 for 1.

The Verdict:
I LOVE IT!
To be honest, I was a little bit scared to try this out because of the price. Being $9.99 I could never bring myself to buying one with my money so I was happy that I was sent this in my vox box to try out.
As you can clearly see, I am very pleased with the way they came out! Love these!

Application:
It's actually really easy, but it just takes some time to apply it. If you are a perfectionist, like yours truly, then it will take a bit of time. I took my time since this was my first time trying out nail strips and like I mentioned before, I am a perfectionist so I had to make sure that the strips were placed exactly where I wanted them.

Some tips for applying these:
The instructions say to apply onto dry nails, but I still applied a base coat to my nails and they actually adhered to my nails much more securely. So I suggest applying a base coat before your put these on and also a top coat to elongate the wear of the nail strips.

If you've tried these out for the first time too, I hope your experience was positive like mine^^

Thank you for reading~!

The Beauty Owl: Too Faced Romantic Eye Palette

I am totally in love with the Too Faced eye shadow palettes! I got this one for my birthday last year and I am still in love and I use this palette quite often. The shades are all very wonderful for a spring look and even a bridal look. I love how each shade is soft, but can also make a very night time look as well.
 The packaging is just beautiful and I love how romantic it really is. It also comes with little instruction cards that have specific looks that you can try out for a day, classic, or fashion look.


 Top to Bottom: Soulmates, Kiss the Bride, Bouquet Toss
 I do, Cut the Cake, Honeymoon
Ever after, First Dance, Un-veil
                                 Here is the swatch picture of all of the shadows. The texture is very nice and creamy. None of the shades were powdery and they blend out very well too. 

Well there is my review for the Too-Faced Romantic eye palette!
Hope you enjoyed!
