I love this duo of products from Sally Hansen. I love how glossy the finish is and it definitely lasts longer than regular nail polishes. And, trust me, I wear a lot of nail polish! I would have to say that I really love the Miracle Gel Top Coat most, however. I use it as my go-to top coat now. It dries quickly and definitely leaves a glossy finish that protects whatever polish I use underneath (such as OPI, China Glaze, Essie or any indie nail polish). Love this!

I love this product! While I don't find it lasts as long as it's supposed to I find it lasts longer than the average nail polish. It thick and goes on smooth and I normally get a few days out of it. And when removing it, it doesn't smear like other polishes.
I really love this polish. It stays on well and if applied with a topcoat can last a long time. It is a very unique color.
Absolutely love the Pinky Promise color! I typically wear a light pink/neutral color and this one has just enough color for me! I have bought 3 more bottles since the first.
Pros: Goes on very smooth and looks fantastic after two coats. Drys relatively quickly. Very chip resistant with normal wear.
Cons: Any prolonged water contact or hard scrubbing/cleaning will cause polish to chip and peel. (Obvious, I know, but I was hoping the "gel" would be a little tougher).
I found that this nail polish does last slightly longer than regular nail polish, but no more than a week. I prefer to use this nail polish over regular nail polish because of the few more days of wear that I get out of it, but don't expect it to last TOO much longer. It looks awesome for the first 4 to 5 days, but then does this strange things wear the polish appears to be cracking or wrinkled... not sure if any one else experiences this issue.
Got this as part of the Dufferin Mall Shop Crawl swag bag, and finally got around to using it! The polish, while very thick, was easy to apply. The wide, flat brush was great as it covered almost my entire nail surface with one easy sweep. I bathed my kids 5 minutes post applicaition and the polish stayed on and continues to look great!
I LOVE THIS PRODUCT!!! Received it in my swagbag from Mall Crawl. I typically stick to laquers or fast-dry polishes as I don't have a dryer and regular polish takes forever to dry. I applied this, and first thing I noticed is that it went on perfectly!!! No lines, no blotches, complete even coverage! I was especially shocked that it dryed in minutes!! It's so shiny! I figured there has to be some down side to this.. But there isn't!! I've had the polish on my toes since the Mall Crawl and it still looks exactly the same as when I applied it!! Still perfect, no cracks or chips, my nails are hard as a rock, and they're still shiny and not dull at all!! I'm leaving it on our of curiosity to see how long it will actually stay as perfect as when it was applied! Never had a product last even remotely this long, certainly none that still looked this great!! Even better, I went to a sale this weekend and was able to stock up on it for $2 each!! Definitely strongly recommend this product!!!!!
I'm a huge fan of do-it-yourself gel polish manicures, because I don't always have time for professional gel manicures that are impossible to remove unless you go back to the salon. I've tried Revlon brand gel polishes in past (with good results) and was thrilled to receive Sally Hansen in my swag bag to try. I got Pink Cadillaquer (cute name!) which is pretty. The colour and top coat result in delicious shine! Lasted about a week before I removed it. You can't beat the price and convenience, I would definitely recommend.
