NAILS | Sally Hansen Color Therapy Swatch in "Therapewter"

Just a little swatchy swatch today to give me some time to think about some Chinese New Year nails! It is the year of the Rooster so I obviously want to draw a rooster somehow, but I'm not great at free-handing poultry so I may have to be "creative". I always love oddly coloured nail polish shades and Sally Hansen's Therapewter* is one of them! This is an olive, black shade with a metallic shimmer that is opaque in two lovely coats. It's a bit of a funny shade that I don't think everyone would wear, but its alien-like appeal is what I love about it.

I am just shocked at myself for not using more Sally Hansen polishes last year as this was practically the brand that got me into nail art! Sally Hansen always has so many solid creme shades that make them wonderful for dotting or as a foundation for other nail art. In the summer of last year, Sally Hansen introduced their new Color Therapy line which includes argan, acai and evening primrose oil in their actual nail polish formulations to condition and strengthen nails while having an awesome-looking manicure! Call me old-fashioned, but when it comes to nail polish, it's always going to be one of those beauty products that IS harmful. We are all trying our best to make it LESS harmful, but until the day comes when you can drink the bottle or apply it to your skin with no ill effects, a formulation with as few bad things as we can spare is what we are going to have to settle for!
