Sally Hansen

Sally Hansen has been a leading nail care brand and household name for over 50 years. This award-winning American beauty brand has made a name for themselves as the number one nail brand in the U.S.A now with more than 300 shades of nail colour and distributed internationally in over 55 countries.

It all started with just two nail products, one of which being the highly recognisable and beloved ‘Hard As Nails’ that has rescued many of us from weak, brittle nails. Now, Sally Hansen offers a number of iconic gel polish and nail products such as Miracle Gel, Insta Dri, Cuticle Remover and Hard As Nails Xtreme Wear as well as tanning and hair removal products and beauty tools.

When you hear about Sally Hansen, you automatically think of nail polish. The brand was founded by the beauty queen herself, way back in 1946. Sally Hansen houses oodles of products that actually go beyond nail care and are into general cosmetics and hair removal.

At Cosmetic Capital, we stock the best-selling range that will have your nails looking like you just had a professional manicure. And the best bit? The price! At Cosmetic Capital you can buy your favourite Sally Hansen product well below recommended retail. So, don’t stop at just one nail polish; you can purchase all your favourite shades, knowing you’ll save when shopping at Cosmetic Capital!

How long does Sally Hansen nail polish take to dry?

When you’re doing your nails at home, drying time is definitely a consideration. If you’re pushed for time, the Sally Hansen Insta-Dri Nail Polish is the product for you. Taking just 1 minute to dry, this 3-in-1 formula also offers longer wear and chip resistance than original nail polish formulations. It really is that easy to get a beautiful finish in just minutes!

At Cosmetic Capital, there are many other Sally Hansen nail polishes available. The Complete Salon Manicure range allows you to skip the salon, but not the salon results. Sure, it takes a little longer than 1 minute to dry, but when you consider you’re actually getting the equivalent benefits of 7 products on in a single coat, it’s actually the perfect choice for time-poor fashionistas. Available in the latest salon-inspired colour range (including blue, nude, pink and black) at a hugely discounted price, be sure to pop a few of these beauties into your cart when you’re shopping at Cosmetic Capital. Don’t forget – we offer free shipping for orders over $60, hassle-free returns, and the convenience of deferred payment options.

The Sally Hansen Xtreme Wear nail polish offers extreme strength and shine, giving long-lasting colour that is chip-resistant, waterproof and won’t fade in the sun.  It offers a hard coat and long-lasting protection for up to 7 days. All this, from just 2 coats that dry in minutes.

For a polish that is more than just colour, try the Sally Hansen Colour Therapy range. This patented formula uses argan oil to nourish and moisturise the nail and cuticle, meaning this product is also a nail treatment. Simply apply 2 coats, allowing 2-3 minutes dry time for each coat, and voila! Instant glossy shine and healthy nails from just a single product. Use a clear topcoat for added strength and protection.

Perhaps the best innovation in the Sally Hansen collection is the Miracle Gel Nail Polish. This product provides results so similar to salon gel nails that you’ll no longer feel the need to continue paying a nail technician. Miracle Gel provides a life-proof finish that is achieved without the use of a UV lamp, making it cost-effective and safe for your skin as well. Whilst the extra time involved might not suit everyone, it’s still much faster and infinitely cheaper than a visit to the salon. To get top results, 2 layers of the base coat are applied, allowing 5 minutes drying time for each application. Then apply the clear gel top coat and watch the magic happen!

How do you remove Sally Hansen miracle gel nail polish?

With 3 coats from a 2 step system providing hardwearing results lasting up to 2 weeks, you might expect that Sally Hansen Miracle Gel Nail Polish needs a special product to remove it. But no! This nail polish can be removed with regular nail polish remover. This is so much better for your nails from a health perspective, but also means you can have endless fun with the huge range of bright colours, from peach and mauve to glittery gold and red. Team your nails with your new outfit or buy our discounted products as a gift. Whatever the reason for your next order, the Cosmetic Capital online store will make you feel as if you got everything on sale. So much so, you can afford to buy your other favourites from our online shop. We stock all the big brands of makeup and makeup brushes, like L’Oreal, NYX Australia, Revlon, Rimmel and Maybelline so you’ll be sorted when it comes to your contour, eyeshadow, eyeliner, mascara and lipstick. Cosmetic Capital also stocks high-end hair care products from exclusive manufactures such as Fanola and Olaplex, so you really can shop for all your needs, from head to toe!

How do you use Sally Hansen nail strips?

Sally Hansen also manufactures nail strips or appliques. Add an extra layer of fun to your home manicure! There are several variations available through Cosmetic Capital, and each product page offers information on how to apply nail strips for best results.

These appliques are the easiest way to do nail art at home. The 3D Textured Appliques are a fun way to add subtle texture and interest to your nails and use the same colour as a base and second coat. Finish with a clear top coat to seal the deal.

Other nail strip applique options include Neon Textured Applique Glow in the Dark which requires a slightly different technique. Firstly, 2 coats of any Sally Hansen colour need to be applied and fully dried. For optimal glow, charge the appliques in full sunlight, then once applied simply finish with a clear topcoat. Easy and fun!

The Salon K Textured Appliques Glass Effect is slightly different again. First, apply 2 coats of any Sally Hansen nail polish and wait until fully dry. Select the transfer that best fits your nail and apply, smoothing over your entire nail. Peel off the backing paper and file off excess, then seal with a clear topcoat. Stunning!
