I'm sure the manufacturer was laughing up a storm when they printed "quick dry" on those bottles.

I refuse to buy anything from an Australian business anymore, if I can help it. I always buy from Overseas, even with the currency conversion and the postage, it still works out cheaper than buying one here AND it's delivered straight to your door. Also theres the fact, that we have limited colours.<br /><br />Thanks for following my blog hun, dont forget to enter my giveaway! :o)Flossyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01616134993495772162noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8464987304149443821.post-82783244173774037002010-05-04T23:31:17.296-04:002010-05-04T23:31:17.296-04:00SH is not near as expensive as what you're tal...SH is not near as expensive as what you're talking about Bec. Their products probably range from around $2-$8 or $9 which isn't bad, but honestly I find their less expensive stuff better than the more expensive stuff. Their new "Complete Salon Manicure" line I think is around $7.50 per bottle which I find pretty steep, especially since I won't buy nail polish over $10. I like SH because I think they do a good job of having various lines of products that can cater to different styles and taste, but they are not consistent with their products which can make purchasing the pricier ones a downer.<br /><br />I feel really bad that they charge so much for polishes like Seche and Essie over there. That is ridiculous and I'm sure beyond frustrating.Stephanie Merlinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04600557762841800023noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8464987304149443821.post-51591690230145840692010-05-04T21:14:35.347-04:002010-05-04T21:14:35.347-04:00I don't know how expensive you are talking whe...I don't know how expensive you are talking when you say they are high for a drug store product, but I paid $15 freaking dollars here for that SH No Chip. And I had the same results as you guys. I was not happy at all. Although my mum took it off me and she seems to like it, although she doen't really paint her nails much. <br />In other news, I found a store here on the weekend called GlamourCo and was super excited to see that they carry Essie and Seche Vite. $30 for Seche Vite and $15 for an Essie polish and not even the new ones! Looks like I am sticking to Ebay. <br />The SH is pretty much the only regret I have. Lol. So I guess I'm doing ok.<br />Great post Steph!<br /><br />BecBechttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02605760730314936818noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8464987304149443821.post-40534428743909587202010-05-04T19:18:49.638-04:002010-05-04T19:18:49.638-04:00Jamie & Jackie-I'm glad you all like this ...Jamie & Jackie-I'm glad you all like this post. I wasn't a bit worried someone may be a super fan of these products and get all offended. <br /><br />Lacquer Ware- I know you aren't a fan of SH products. I do think the prices are bit high for d/s! There are some lines of theirs I'm not a fan of at all Insta-Dri is nightmare for me, but I do like Xtreme Wear. I can see why you're not to fond of them. <br /><br />Choas-That's exactly what happened with me. It's dreadful. I'm thinking about emailing them and telling them my experience with it. I don't know if it would do much they'd probably just be like sorry here is a free coupon for some more of it. LOL, no thanks. :PStephanie Merlinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04600557762841800023noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8464987304149443821.post-81925627298063012632010-05-04T18:26:53.064-04:002010-05-04T18:26:53.064-04:00Omg, I'm so with you on the acrylic no chip st...Omg, I'm so with you on the acrylic no chip stuff!<br />My manis never just chipped with it either.<br />No, no...they would crack first. A big crack would appear somewhere on my nail, and then by the next day, the crack would come loose and the polish fall off. It didn't matter what I used or did...as long as I used that stupid topcoat, it would be ruined. I hate that stuff. :(The Phalanges Friendhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05876817563424417251noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8464987304149443821.post-29815230873346415022010-05-04T17:10:07.949-04:002010-05-04T17:10:07.949-04:00Hmmm...I'm not crazy about Sally Hansen produc...Hmmm...I'm not crazy about Sally Hansen products. They don't have colors that wow me, they chip after a day on me, their BC and TC don't work for me, and I think their prices are a bit high for a drug store brand.

It's a metallic looking base coat I think that is supposed to enhance and alter colours giving a metallic finish. Hmmm. Am trying them with different combinations now:/Jamie K.https://www.blogger.com/profile/05817073163445581133noreply@blogger.com
