Sally Hansen Complete Salon Manicure: Peachy Keen

When we went on our beach vacation I really wasn't sure if I would have the time or inclination to change my manicure so I decided a pale nude polish was the way to go.  Cue Sally Hansen's Peachy Keen.
 
Peachy Keen is a warm peachy nude cream which almost seamlessly blended into my pale skin - the perfect low-maintenance shade for when I didn't want to be worrying about the usual manicure wear and tear.  It reminds me very much of one of my old, old OPI favourite nudes:  Coney Island Cotton Candy.   This polish is one of Sally Hansen's 7-in-1 formula Complete Salon Manicure range, with inbuilt base coat, strengthener, growth treatment, colour, top coat, featuring gel-like shine and chip resistance. 
 
I found application quite easy with the flat brush although with the lighter shade I needed 3 coats to get sufficiently even opaque coverage.  Out of habit I'd used a base coat so perhaps because of that mistake I found my manicure was taking a longer than usual time to dry and I caved in to finishing off with a quick dry top coat.  Wear time was fantastic though and my manicure easily lasted the 10 days I wore it, looking fresh and glossy with only a few little chips which didn't appear until around day 8.  I have a few more autumnal shades from this range to try so I'll make sure to remember to FORGET the base coat and top coat next time!

  2. Oooh, I love this color! It's beautiful! I can never get Sally Hansen to last on me, though - perhaps I'm far too hard on my nails. I've been looking for a great neutral, though...

    1. Maybe give this one a go with base and top coat (even though you're not really supposed to). The colour is great if you're after a creamy nail :)
