Hard to apply - you need to be quick accurate otherwise gets lines. Long time in between coats or sticky. Only lasts 3 days before chipping.

Brush falling apart

6 years ago
All my brushes have bristles falling out of it. Is there anything I can do to remedy this. I love the product, not the brushes are bad. I have had three bottles so far completely void of bristles. I can not use a nail polish if I do not have a brush to get it on my finger nails. I would recommend it to a friend if the brushes were better.

NO DIFFERENT TO NORMAL POLISH

8 years ago
I was really excited to be able to take this to my manicurist and have professionally applied and leave the shop without it denting or smudging. Despite it being on my nails for over 40 mins it was still soft and no matter how careful I was 2 marks were left on 2 nails. I bought the top coat too and put my hands under their dryer for 20 mins. The colour I chose is spot on though but not worth the hype of gel.

Nice but nothing special

I bought this product a month ago and have used it multiple times but am disappointed. When used as directed, the product does not wear as the ads claim. At best the polish lasts 2-3 days without chipping. I don’t find this product to be any better than the competitors products.

Mixed feelings!

9 years ago
I recommend 1. Complete care 7 in 1 treatment (base coat) 2. 2 coats colour miracle gel 3. Big shiny top coat - NOT MIRACLE GEL I have been using this brand for a long time, and this range. The colours are very pigmented and come in a perfect variety of beautiful shades. But, the top coat is not worth it. It bubbles up as soon as it dries. The colours stain badly without a base coat, even the light blue! So I use a base coat, even though it hinders the wear time, surprisingly! The top coat is easily dented and makes the polish peel off in one piece in about 5 days. The brush is great for application, nice and thick with rounded end, great for neat cuticles. I am a huge fan of the Sally Hansen products but this is not what is is hyped up to be! It is ok for the price, not as much as gel. Real gel has much better staying power and finish, but at least this product doesn't damage your nails.

I am so bad at putting polish on that i barely do it. 1. Because it doesnt look great and 2. Normal nail polish never lasts. I brought this product, applied it and its only been one day and it's chipping off and cracking like a desert. Altho I'm pleased with dry time and how nice it looked straight up. I noticed on my first attempt that some bristles came out onto my nail as well. I'm going to re try this again and see if i can really try doing a better job and see how i go. I think there should be better instructions and a tutorial somewhere. I've read great reviews but since coming here I've seen nothing but complaints.

    Doesn't cure, remains soft.

    5 months ago
    I brought this product a week ago and gave it go, I put on the primer, colour grip and when I put 2 coats on it wasn't thick enough and to translucent, so put on another and it was still sticky. I put on the top coat hoping it would harden them and it didn't cure even after a week. It was still soft. Removed it and I gave it another try today and still the same. I was hoping for a good result, but it was a waste of money. Very disappointed and won't purchase again.

      Smearing top coat

      I've had this for about a week and my experience hasn't been good. The color I have is beautiful along with the top coat but what makes it horrid is that the top coat takes a while to dry. As I am typing this on my phone it is still drying. I check every now and then and it still smears.

          Brushes are useless

          a year ago
          The product itself is ok, but don't expect longer wear due to the gel formula. It chips just as easily as standard formula so you may as well just buy the standard stuff. The biggest problem is that the bristles on the applicator brush just fall off. This has happened on all of my miracle gel bottles, which ends up being a massive waste of product because it can no longer be used without a brush. The only positive thing is the colours are nice.

          Thin and runny

          2 years ago
          The brush is amazing, best I've come across. The color coat was thin and runny, ran down onto the cuticles. The second color coat application smudged the first coat, even when left for up to 30 mins between coats. The top coat was also thin and runny. It dried very quickly and very shiny. But the whole result is thin and uneven.

          Does Not Dry As Advertised

          5 years ago
          Here's my Story with this Polish.... I go to the Salon to have my Pedicure and Manicure. I only use this polish on my toes. After the salons re-opened during the pandemic. I have been taking this polish with me to the salon My appointments are always at 5:30PM The nail technician applies (2) thin coats of the polish on my toes. I have her wait to apply the (1) coat of the "Top Coat" on my toes (allowing some ample time for the (2) coats of nail polish to dry). I have her start on my manicure.. After my manicure is done, she's goes back to apply the (1) coat of the "Top Coat" on my toes and then were done. I then put on flip-flops for the entire evening until it's time to go to bed (10:00PM). Here's the issue that I have with this polish.... When I leave for work then next morning at 9:00AM. I put on my tennis shoes for work and when I arrive by 9:30AM. I always take off my shoe at my desk to check my toes and after 13 HOURS OF NOT WEARING ANY SHOES the nail polish is STILL NOT FULLY DRY because there are indentation marks from the tennis shoe pressed into the polish. It looks horrible. So, this is what I do.... I cut (2) strips of paper and I wrap it around my (2) big toes with scotch tape, put my shoes back on and and I leave it on for the remainder of the day. The pieces of paper smooths out the indentations marks that were made. Sounds strange but it works. So what am i doing wrong? Why after 13 hours this polish is not fully dried? I even dipped my toes is Ice Water at home to try and speed up the drying but that doesn't work either. The only reason I continue to use Sally Hansen Miracle Gel and go through all this is because I can go over a month wearing this polish with no chipping or peeling on my toes? Thanks for hearing my rant!

          Had Higher Expectations for this Product

          6 years ago
          Pros: good color choices and good brush, quick drying time, nice glossy top coat Cons: streaky application and after few days wear you will see hairline cracks in your polish if wearing a light color. **I used the color Plush Blush** I have used Sally Hansen polishes ever since I first started painting my nails at 12 years old. I had high expectations for this product due to the claims advertised. The product did not deliver the results I wanted. I usually apply my polish in thin even coats, and even cleaned my already clean nails with acetone and lint-free wipe. It dried quickly in between coats, however it did not produce an even color application. I had to add a third coat as opposed to the suggested 2 coats in order to make a somewhat decent coverage. After 2-3 days of wear, the polish started making visible hairline cracks (nude color polish) I did not experience this issue with regular nail polishes. If anything, it would probably be better to buy this type of product in a darker shade as to make the cracked appearance less noticeable.

          It stains nails

          6 years ago
          I really liked the idea of gel nail polish without uv light to dry, so I decided to give this a try. First, it takes forever to dry. I waited 5 mins between coats and half hour later it still wasn’t fully set. Second, if you use dark colors be prepared to have stained nails. I wish they had a base coat with some nail strengthening properties. Last, make sure that you wear gloves to do the dishes, clean, or do yard work because they will chip real easily if you don’t. With a few improvements, the nail polish could really work. Nails come out real pretty and shiny.
