I've loved this stuff since it first came out, and if there's a drugstore product that deserves a post, it's this one. Sally Hansen Insta-Dry Nail Polish ($5) has, on many an occasion, saved me from losing my mind waiting for polish to dry and ruining an entire manicure out of sheer frustration.
When I looked in my drawer this morning, I had seven bottles of the stuff, ranging from bright, sunny yellow to teal to perfect French-tip cream.

When you're looking for skincare products, there are some things you don't want to see in a review. Take the phrase "chemical burn," for example. Those two words came up more than once in reviews of Sally Hansen Brush-On Hair Remover Creme, a product that didn't get much love from readers.

I'm a doodler by nature, and a dabbler in whatever unique beauty product I can get my hands on. It seems like nail pens are all the rage in the nail polish industry as of late, so when I heard about Sally Hansen Nail Art Pen, I had to give it a try.
There are eight shades in total, and because I wanted to give myself some glitzy black nails à la Paris Hilton's black French manicure, I purchased the white shade.

The Sally Hansen and Tracey Reese collaboration has been going strong for six seasons now. It's no surprise. Bringing affordable, trendy nail polish shades to the masses is always a hit, especially during this blah economy.

I like when lip gloss comes in a wand with a brush at the tip of the applicator. Even though it can get bacteria in it the same way that mascara can, it doesn't open in your bag and you don't have to dip your (possibly germy) finger in it to apply. This is the reason I wanted to try Sally Hansen Lipnotic Gem Gloss ($6.99), but with claims like "creates a look of glittery gems under glass" and provides "hypnotic color," I was skeptical.

Do you remember your first taste of honey? I do, at least when it comes to Clinique Black Honey Almost Lipstick ($14). Ever since trying the shade in college, I've been hooked.

There are so many lip plumpers on the market, but I'm always game to try a new one. Sally Hansen recently introduced its Gentle Plumping Lip Treatment ($8.99) in six shades. With fun-spirited names like Happy, Playful, Serene, Tease, and Tickle, I just had to try them out.

Finding the right base coat is a critical first step in creating the perfect at-home manicure. If you use one that doesn't have a decent adhesive quality, then the color you've just applied is likely to peel off quickly.
An instant peel or chip on your freshly manicured hands feels like a big waste of time.

Remember back in early March when I told you that Sally Hansen was partnering with Carmindy Bowyer from What Not to Wear to create a makeup line called Natural Beauty? Well, it has finally launched and I've just had the chance to check out the goods. The collection includes 16 items ranging from cream bronzers to lip glosses.
