Hello Ladies,

Hope you all are doing fantastic, and this week is proving to be as pleasant as it could be. Today I am reviewing a new base coat for you all, I have been using the OPI base coat since forever, but Sally Hansen has been the most raved about brand when it comes to a base coat. So a try was a must. So here are my views on the Sally Hansen Salon Manicure Smooth and Strong Base Coat.

My Thoughts On The Sally Hansen Salon Manicure Smooth and Strong Base Coat :
Basically, I am too lazy to go on for a base coat and then apply the nail enamel. But then I noticed that the shine on my nails was wearing off with my regular nail abuse with different nail paints. So I thought it’s high time I get myself get off my laziness and take special efforts in preserving my natural nail shine.

Sally Hansen Salon Manicure Smooth and Strong Base Coat claims to fill ridges and strengthens the nail bed.

It has no DBP, Toulene and Formaldehyde.

The texture of the Sally Hansen Salon Manicure Smooth and Strong Base Coat is gelish. It spreads out smoothly on the nails and dries up within seconds.

The formula also has biotin which is found in pearls and spirulina enriched, with self leveling action, which fills the ridges evenly. It also hardens weak nails and adds density to thin nails to help prevent splitting. Even finish grips color.

What’s to LOVE about the Sally Hansen Salon Manicure Smooth and Strong Base Coat :

• Thick consistency. It’s almost a gel.
• Smoothes out evenly on the nail bed
• Dries instantly
• Holds up the color
• Transparent
• Avoid nail enamel from chipping, fading and cracking. Keeps upto all its claims.
• Strengthens the nails, I can mention that since it helps my nails from chipping and has made her nails considerably hard and strong
• Keeps the shine from fading and decreasing
• Keeps the nails from staining
• Enables smooth application on the enamel

What’s to HATE about the Sally Hansen Salon Manicure Smooth and Strong Base Coat :

NOTHING. Just that Sally Hansen needs to retail out at more places.

Final Verdict :
Sally Hansen Salon Manicure Smooth and Strong Base Coat is a transparent base coat, which looks nice even on its own!! I mean I like having plain manicured shiny nails some times, so I slather it up and I am good to go. I think I would be switching between my OPI base coat and this one. It’s a pretty decent base coat.
