Sally HansenMiracle Gel, Rhapsody Red, Long Lasting, Gel-Like Formula, No UV Lamp Needed, Opaque, Shiny Red Nail Polish

I love this so much I accidentally bought it twice!I bought my first Miracle Gel nail polish when I saw a pretty teal color around Easter time last year and then I realized I had to buy Step 2 also, but the color was so pretty I bought both.This particular review is about this lovely dark green shade. I thought it went on as smoothly as any of the Miracle Gels I’ve used before, and covered nicely in two coats. It could ALMOST have been one cost but the color is so dark that it was still visible that it was thin in some places. With the Step 2 coat that I put on top, this lasted me about a week before starting to chip. I used a sparkly gold/iridescent Step 2 and the one thing about doing that is it made the green seem even darker and at a glance it seemed more black than green. But I haven’t found a good medium green shade and this seemed good for Christmas, reminiscent of evergreens, so I’m still pretty happy with it.The one thing I have never loved about these Miracle Gels is that they don’t want you to bother with a base coat. They do go on well even without one, and they don’t stain my nails with their colors. But I still often use a base coat with them (Orly Top 2 Bottom is nice) and I feel like they’re a bit more resilient when I do. I have in the past misplaced my Step 2 and they seem to do OK with a different topcoat too, in a pinch.

This is an excellent product. Makes my color street nails last 1-2 weeks longer. Very shiny and also protects nails from breakage.

Takes several coats, but lasts! I use my hands, no desk job here. I have sooo many other polishes that chip or wear within a day or two. This really holds up and I frequently receive compliments on the color. I have blue and light pink as well.

I really like this polish and top coat. I don’t believe you get the 8 days they claim, at least not looking perfect but still better than most. It never chips for me, color seems to fade out from the tips of nails on me. I apply two coats of miracle gel color allowing to dry 10-15 minutes between each coat, then I apply two coats of the miracle gel top coat (shiny) also allowing at least 10 minutes between coats. Then I will usually apply another top coat several days later to try and help extend the wear. Picture is after two full days and still looking near perfect. For people who claim they are not getting even a few days of wear I wonder if they are applying two coats of each, or too thin or too thick and sloppy coats?

Sally Hansen is great! The gel polish goes on smooth, dries quickly and lasts. This seller packaged it up nicely and securely. Thanks.

Thinking it was going to be a pale pink color instead it’s a milky pale color but it’s still looks nice on your nails. They look natural and stays on longer than the other nail polishes I’ve used. I think I’ll more colors.

I purchased the Pink Tank color. I didn't have the top coat so I only applied the color and a top coat I had on hand. The pictures are after 24hrs of wear. I know it's not a long time, but my nail bed is oily and usually by the next day I have tons of chips. I've been typing, cleaning and working out. So far so good. I will say if you don't prep your nail bed properly before applying, no nail polish will last long. This isn't a gel manicure. It's durable nail polish that drys very fast and last longer than the typical nail polish. The lighter colors leave streaks so go with dark colors. It has the wider nail brush so it's easy to apply in just three strokes.How I applied:Acetone & cotton ball to remove old polish from nailsWash hands and nails with liquid soapFile and shapeLightly file the top of nail, especially tips, to rough up the surface to help polish adhereUse alcohol to clean the nails and remove any oilsApply color in 3 sweeping motions, center, then down one side then the otherWait for color to completely dry. Don't skip this step.After it's dried add the top coatWait for it to dry completely, then add a second top coat.After 2 days apply another top coat to help it last longer.(Edited: the last picture is after 2 days of wear and me reapplying top coat for protection. The Nail polish defiantly chips within a day or two but only small amount. This polish does last longer than others I've tried but not a week.)UPDATE:I purchased the #669 Let's Get Digital. The picture shows my nails with 2 coats. It's very very light color with iridescent and glitter. This would be a nice to add on top of a dark nail polish to add sparkle to it.

This gives your nails a real nice shine, it lasts not too bad, but if you have some finger work to do it did not last as long as I would have liked. This product also takes quite a while to dry, so plan ahead it you are using it.

Red without top coat in photo. This is by far best I've tried yet for nailpolish. Dried super fast and in perfect condition as u see. 1 coat with red is all I did and it's so vibrant. Bought this for my daughter and now I'm thinking I need this set too.

Color, easy application, long lasting

I was looking for a semi sheer nude polish. Perfect colour! One coat is enough for that perfect sheer white/nude look.

Schöne Farbe, die lange hält.
