As an ALL YOU magazine Reality Checker, I recently had the opportunity to check out one of Sally Hansen's newest nail polishes, Insta-Dri. Here are my thoughts:
- It really DOES dry super fast compared to other polishes...a must for busy moms!
- I love, love, LOVE the wide brush! It covered just about the whole nail in one shot.
- I am the world's worst nail polisher ever, but this made my nails look really good. Almost like I just left a manicurist's (which is not frugal at all!) The colors available are really pretty and the shine is awesome.
- They claim that it only takes one coat and your done...but I have to say that I should have used 2 coats. Of course, it may be the color they sent me (Mauve It) was a bit sheer and light. Maybe another shade would be more opaque?
- Even if you do have to do 2 coats, it dries fast which is good. I have tried other brands who claim the same thing and really did not dry all that fast. This is $4.95 which is a bit higher than I would like to pay (hey, I am a frugalista) but it is worth it for the convenience. Hmmm...I wonder if some of my fellow deal seekers will find a great buy on this at one of the drug stores?

Being a girly girl that loves to have polished nails, I'll definitely have to try this polish. I do like that their polishes always have a nice shine to them. I find that if I apply a top coat, the color stays on a lot longer. Since I work with my hands, I mess my nails up daily so the top coat helps prolong.
I agree with your review! I put one coat on, but definitely could have benefit from 2 coats. It did not hold up to dishwashing AT ALL. I washed a very small amount of dishes in the sink and I already needed to redo my nails. I was hoping it might be able to tolerate it.
Definitely a great product though!
