Sally Hansen Complete Salon Manicure Greige Gardens

To my surprise, I found this at my local dollar store (Dollarama) for TWO BUCKS!  They also had some other colours available too.  SINCE WHEN DID SALLY HANSEN SELL TO DOLLAR STORES?  Smart move, because they are way too expensive and the quality to pretty mediocre.




Colour: The colour is a creme grey purple with a bit of dark mauve. I think this is a pretty unique colour. This is a great colour for fall 2012.  
Formula and Consistency: I used 3 good coats for this.  Formula is super thin in the beginning. Two coats is fine, but I just played it safe with 3.
Dry Time: The dry time is between 5 mins, I didn't want to take a risk and wait, so I applied a dry fast top coat.
Brush: Brush is thick and flat, just like the Insta-Dri ones and could easily apply with one stroke if you know how to control it
Finish: The finish was solid and smooth, but I have to use a dry fast top coat for this.  This nail polish peels easily and I took it off after 2 days.
Price: Got it for $2 at the dollar store :)

Overall I would give this 3.5 stars.  Yay for unique colour and price and nay for staying power and thin formula
