When I was at my local CVS in search of a coral nail polish color, the nail art pens caught my attention. I have heard mixed reviews on the Sally Hansen Nail Art Pens. People either love them or hate them.
I am one of the people that hate them.It took forever for the product to come out (I even stored it upside in anticipation of this happening, but it didn't help). At first the product was very thin and watery, even after shaking it. I had to re-draw the design on my thumb at least 4 times before it semi-started to show up. The product also came out watery, resulting in a smudgy mess on my nail. After a bit of time, the product came out to be a brighter white, but I still went over each design twice. The product almost instantly faded/rubbed off after drying. The design on my nails was completely erased after 5 hours of wear. I have never tried nail pens, but I am guessing this is not normal.
Using the pen is easier than trying to draw the design on with a toothpick which is what I've done in the past, but with the Sally Hansen pen, I think I'm better off sticking with the toothpick.
On to the tutorial, I used Sally Hansen nail polish #11 Sonic Bloom all over my nails.
Any fun summery color will work great for this.
Next, I drew the designs on with the nail pen.
Since using the pen was not as successful as I hoped, I drew the design on a sticky note so it's easier to tell what I did.
