I’m always intrigued when a product claims to perform multiple functions – the fewer products the better right? I love Sally Hansen Double Duty (reviewed here) and occasionally wear it as a standalone clear nail polish on those days when I just can’t get around to a full manicure. So I was intrigued when I heard the buzz about the Sally Hansen Complete Salon Manicure product. It is supposed to be a base coat, nail polish, and top coat all in one bottle!
I grabbed a few bottles of the Complete Manicure at a pharmacy recently and was eager to test out the formula for myself. I didn’t see the product specifically state that it did not contain toxins such as formaldeyde and toulene (those that are not present in other Zoya nail polish) so I put on a base coat anyway. I was fine just testing this for its color and top coat. I absolutely loved the colors I got. Get Juiced is like a rich, almost neon rosy, flamingo pink. It is one of my favorite shades at the moment and would be a flattering, bright (but not too bright) shade on many skin tones. Wedding Glitters is a fun microglitter gold, metallic shade and as you can imagine would be great for a big event like a wedding or party.
Both colors went on and dried well. Unfortunately, the nail polish shipped within a few days so I would wear a top coat as well. Even though it wasn’t a complete manicure in a bottle, the line comes in many beautiful shades that go on smoothly. The Complete Manicure line may not be perfect, but it can be pretty.

I LOVE Get Juiced!
I had the same problem with the Complete Salon Manicure line – the polish chipped within a few days. Nevertheless, the color range is still beautiful, so I continue to purchase colors from the line – and wear them with additional top coat! 🙂
SO it’s not just me! I agree thought that the color range is still great and I now wear it with top coat!
Both colors are really beautiful! I haven’t tried Sally Hansen in awhile. They always come out with a fabulous array of colors. It’s unfortunate about it’s durability. I’ve gotten so where I want my nail polish to at least last a week! hahaha Nail snob! HaHaHa Wishing you a great day! 🙂
One of my favorite polishes is Sally Hansen’s Complete Salon Manicure in Kook-a-Mango. I’ll need to try Get Juiced as well. It’s a beautiful color!
LOVE that second color!
So pretty. I love that coral-y color. Natch.
I hate chipping, but those are two beautiful colors and at a great price!

Congrats on the great guest post hun! The photos were amazing! The colours are so beautiful, looks like an excellent buy.
I love the silver — so pretty!
Pretty colors!
I’ve never found a complete manicure to actually hold up for more than a day or two. somethings just work better separated, like shampoo and conditioner.
Lydia, so true – some things really are just better separated (like nail polish and top coat!)
Love that neon rose color–so pretty for this spring! p.s. Love those images on Ki’m’s blog that you put up–just gorgeous! I think that festival is officially on my bucket list now.
