Holiday 2010: Party Perfect Nails with Sally Hansen Complete Salon Manicure.

A quick and easy way to jazz up your look for the holiday is with a handful of pretty, party perfect nails. With the new Complete Salon Manicure Holiday Collection from Sally Hansen, you will get that in just a few short minutes.

The colors in the collection are gorgeous, and any of the shades will do for this most festive time of year.

The glitter nails are full on glitter. My shade below is Starry Starry Flight, and I used only one coat of the polish, after a base coat and top coat. Though you do not need a base or top coat with this polish, I chose to apply than, as I like to get the absolute longest wear out of it.

The new Sally Hansen Complete Salon Manicure is like getting the full manicure treatment, in one step, right at home. You see, five steps are packed into one formula: Base Coat, Strengthener, Growth Treatment, Color, and Top Coat. The patented formula also contains Vita-Care Technology for advanced wear, more shine, and nourishing care. The brush is shorter, more tapered and more full than your standard brush. It picked up just the right amount of polish and applied evenly and seamlessly in a quick coat. Also important is the fact that all shades are Toluene, DBP, and Formaldehyde free.

Look for all of these Sally Hansen Complete Salon Manicure shades at our favorite drugstore or mass merchandiser, where they sell for about $7.00 each. To learn more about this innovative new formula and to see all of the colors available, be sure to visit SallyHansen.com.
