Sally Hansen Salon Effects
Thursday, April 07, 2011So over a year ago, Katy Perry tweeted a photo of her latest (and greatest) manicure. I think this photo single-handedly turned me around on her. Just kidding ... sort of.
I despised her first two singles, "I Kissed A Girl", especially. I'm not going to get on my soapbox about how it perpetuates stereotypes, yada yada, but that's basically the reason I disliked her so much. And with "Hot and Cold", I felt she perpetuating yet another stereotype about women who were "PMSing".
But as time passed, she seemed to move further away from the sensationalist lyrics and more towards this cutesy image that I kind of liked. Candy? Check. Cupcakes? Check. Fun nails? Wow, yes.
You can see the uneven edges on my index finger. |
These things are supposed to last 10 to 14 days, but I know mine won't last nearly that long. I'm the girl who needs to cut her nails twice a week because they grow that fast. I'll be happy if I can keep them for 7 days. I'll check back when the strips start showing wear and tear. Overall, I'm pretty happy with the results ... I probably wouldn't be singing the same tune if I didn't have half the kit leftover. I do wish the design were richer in color instead of on the more pastel-colored side. I loved the blue/black base of Katy's design.
