Fact: I was pretty much the queen of the at-home Fact: I was pretty much the queen of the at-home gel manicure for the past 2-3 years. KEYWORD: WAS. Since I’m super impatient and can never sit still, it was a dream come true for me, and I actually threw away 99.9% of my regular nail polishes. But like all addictions, there was a major dark side. It involved the strange ritual of tearing up pieces of aluminum foil, dousing cotton balls in harsh liquids, and chilling out in a stupor … then taking metal tools to my body. AKA - taking that ish off my nails.Anyways, my name is Ann and it’s been 60+ days since my last gel manicure because I discovered Sephora’s Formula X Sheer Strength collection, where the shades are my fantasy dream of every bubblegum sheer color I ever wanted (true bubbly pink? pale purple? nude browns?), the polish dries super quick (less pigment = faster dry), and they work as a nail strengthener, packed with botanical extracts, keratin and natural hydrators. Sheer Strength helps prevent splitting, cracking and peeling all while giving your nails a truly beautiful, natural look that still looks great when it starts to chip a way a bit, as all nail polish does. All ten of the Sheer Strength nail polishes have been enhanced with SHINEXCEL, which is an innovative luminescent ingredient that will enhance the overall color and shine of your nails. Recovery never looked so chic.Does This: Strengthens nails & gives a hint of tintIs This: Formula X Sheer Strength CollectionGet This: SEPHORA or HEREPrice: $12.50Image Source: Artnau, product c/o the brand nails, beautyann sommaOctober 27, 2015beauty, manicure, nail polish, nails, sheer nail polish, best natural nail polish, best nude nail polish, nail color, pink, sheer pink, best strengthening nail polish, best nail strengthener, sephora sheer strength review Facebook0 Twitter Pinterest0 0 Likes
