Off the Rack: Sally Hansen Salon Effects Halloween Collection


During a quick trip to Walgreens this afternoon, I spied 5 new limited-edition styles from Sally Hansen Salon Effects Real Nail Polish Strips that are perfect for Halloween. There's Hot Wired, a slime green with black barbed-wire design; Wishnets, a blood red with black fishnet design; Ghoulie Girl, a black background with orange and white ghosts; Numbskull, a black and white skull-and-crossbones design; and Spun for You, a metallic silver with black spiderwebs. For about $10 a pop, these nail strips are just about the cheapest, easiest way to get in the holiday spirit or just accessorize your fall looks with something fun and edgy. I'll probably go back for Wishnets or Spun for You, which will look drop-dead gorgeous with a little black dress and red lipstick. Which style is your favorite?

















{I also spotted Sally Hansen's Hard As Nails Halloween collection, a line of 6 colors in a nail-strengthening formula.}

I like the numb skull and hot wired I have tried this product before and it was pretty good it lived up to its claim.

I absolutely love Salon Effects by SH. I've found that if you put a clear top coat on after application they last without a chip for at least 10 days.

I'm not really one for the ghoul, but I AM TOTALLY into wishnets. I'm gonna get some. THANK YOU for writing about them!

This is definitely the best beauty invention I've seen! It works, it's pretty, cost effective compared to getting your nails done at a salon. Can't wait to try the halloween line!

I absolutely love these! I didn't know they had Halloween ones! Not to mention, that Sally Hansen always has coupons for these products out, usually $1 off. Can't wait to purchase and wear on 10/31!

Have worn one for each week this month! Well...all but the "wishnets". I felt like these would be approriate to wear any other time of the year. Since it's red I'll probably wear it around Christmas time:o) Love Sally Hansen Salon Effects!!!!
