I Pink I Can

by Moi

Just like Audrey Hepburn in Funny Face, it’s Spring and time to think pink! I’m uber-excited to break out my pink manicure! Last year my pink passion was Posh Pink by Revlon, I confess: I still love it and will be wearing it this year too. But Moi needs to mix it up a bit!

On the plane I was still in no-electronics status and idling through More Magazine’s April article on “Beauty Breakthroughs” and discovered the Sally Hansen Complete Salon Manicure: 5-in-1: base coat, growth treatment, nail strengthener, color, shiny topcoat.

So off to  CVS where I snatched up a bottle of I Pink I Can. What do you think?

The newly-designed applicator has a wide flat brush: More found it “makes application considerably easier” ; I thought it a bit too wide for my pinkie and pointer fingers, but maybe with practice I’ll get a little neater. And with 42 colors, I’ll have a lot of opportunities to perfect my manis!

I paid $7.99.

report back after you have worn this. i have not tried this product but have not found these all-in-one products to be very good. i would likely use the sally hansen base coat, then apply the all-in-one product.

Hi Rebecca
I did wear the polish, those are my fingers above! I too typically do a Sally Hansen base and top coat, because my nails are weak and tend to split. And I like the shine of the top coat.

So I was happy to try an all-in-1 by Sally Hansen. For home manicures I’ll probably continue to do a base and top coat. BUT when I’m traveling I will bring only the 5-in-1: much less hassle if I have to repair a chipped or broken nail.

And I’ve tried it a couple times, and am getting used to the wider brush. I don’t think it saves any time, its just wider. I still use 3 strokes for each nail so its evenly blended.

What’s your favorite nail polish?
