What do I do on a day like this you ask.....?
My nails of course :-) Lately I have been quite obsessive over my nails, and
getting some colours onto them that I would not usually wear. But the polishes
that add texture to my nails really get me intrigued. There are so many
different types out on the market these days such as velvet nails, sand nails,
crackle nails, caviar nails and of course the fuzzy nails.
This is where Sally Hansen has jumped on board with
their Fuzzy Coat.
Sally Hansen Fuzzy Coat is $9.95
Imagine textured nails with 3D fabric finishes in a flash! Transform
your manicure with Sally Hansen’s newest nail innovation: Fuzzy Coat Textured
Nail Color.
Taking inspiration from the strong textural themes at the latest runway
shows, Sally Hansen has developed a new, exclusive special effect formula that
makes nails the focal point of any look. The breakthrough formula goes where no
nail color has gone before, creating eye-catching optical effects and adding
lust-worthy texture to your manicure. Blurred, woven and marbled fiber looks
resembling hand-spun yarn are combined in a multidimensional network of color
to create a matte finish with a fibered texture effect.
When I tried out these nail colors, it actually played
tricks on my eyes. My eyes found it hard to focus on them and did come across
fuzzy. When the nail polish dries it also shrinks bringing up the strips of
colour in there creating that texture feeling.
I was sent a few different colours and my standout
favourite was certainly the Tight Knit, which is a blue and white colour. I
think the reason I like this is because it is my AFL teams colour, although
after this weekend I am not to sure I can wear them proudly so I might stick to
the Wool Lite shade, which is a pretty pink and goes with everything!
It is funny though, no matter how much I tell myself
to leave my nails alone. I cannot help but touch them and feel how strange and
rigid they feel! These are also great for my nails, as at the moment I am
fighting some ugly nail ridges haaha!
I also love that there are no rules with this polish
and you can easily mix and match them to change the colour and finish up :- I
actually have quite a lot of fun doing this to be honest. I have popped above my favourite combo, which I used Fuzz-Sea and Tight Knit. Another thing I will add is how quickly these
polishes dry, although you need to really let them rest or else the texture
will wipe right off (can be a little deceiving.)
The three polishes I was sent for review were:
Tight Knit- Which has green and a light yellow shade
of strips throughout it.
Fuzz-Sea- Which is my North Melbourne polish having
blue and white strips throughout it. I love this polish so much and know it
will be used right to the last drop.
Wool Lite- Which is the pink I love to wear with
everything J It is a light baby pink colour and
is one I will be wearing to my friends baby shower this weekend, as she is
having a girl!
HOW TO USE IT: Shake gently and apply 2-3 thin
coats. Fuzzy Coat can be used alone or on top of any Sally Hansen Nail Colour.
I only had to use two coats and I found I liked that look a lot. I also love
putting one layer of colour on my nails and then the fuzz coat on top, it makes
for a really pretty, different look.
