    I tried the "Thinking of Blue" color last night and was very impressed with the wide applicator brush. I actually like it better becuase it provides full coverage. The color is vibrant and funky. I absolutely love the shades. I think that this new line will give Opi a run for its money and I'm an avid Opi girl. However, change can be good. : )

    Sarah said, on Mar 7th, 2010 10:06 pm regarding The New Face of Sally Hansen Salon
    I used to be a strictly OPI girl but when I went shopping for a new spring shade and the selection where I went was picked over I took a chance and tried this in Shell We Dance. The application was easy with the brush reminding me of the Pro Wide style OPI uses. Also the wear is very long lasting and keeps my super thin and brittle nails from breaking and peeling. At a few dollars more than OPI per bottle...I\'m sold!

    Oooh I love these! Have your tried Sally Hansens "Going Green"? It's so lovely...check out the swatch on my blog! Ps...Steph how do you get your nails looking so darn PERFECT?? Tutorial needed!!! http://mommyloveslipgloss.blogspot.com

    staining your nails? don't you use a basecoat? and i just bought Grape Going two days ago! that's so weird. I read this blog intensely, you're amamzing and i hope you never stop doing swatches! They're so amazingly helpful!

    Laura said, on Mar 6th, 2010 3:19 am regarding Nails of the Day: Arissa in Rockin Amethyst
    I'm not gonna lie, right now i have over 15 different purples in my collection... i have a problem. This kind of reminds me of the Hot Topic purple! (which is in my top 3 favorite purples)

    Sandy said, on Mar 5th, 2010 10:57 am regarding Going Green: Icing Lucky Charm, Lucky Lady
    I love Lucky Lady! It\'s my kind of green and a flawless application - what more could you want! Thanks and have a great weekend - I\'ll be at Icing!

    Elena said, on Mar 4th, 2010 8:22 am regarding Going Green: Nubar Reclaim Nail Polish
    I picked up Greener, Wildlife, Forest and Reclaim. Reclaim and Wildlife stand out because they are unique, but Greener is still a stunner in my book.
