The Sally Hansens web page says that this polish is a breakthrough in nail color, which helps to hide ridges and imperfections with a breathable porcelain smooth finish. Well I bought into that and was very disappointed with it. The first time I tried to apply this polish it went on streaky and very uneven, but I was rushing, so I tried it again. This time I took my time applying it, but had the same results. No matter how light, or how heavy I applied this polish I still couldn’t get it on evenly and it looked terrible. I wasn’t going anywhere so I left it on because I wanted to see just how long it would last before it started chipping away. With in a few hours it was already starting to chip from my right hand and I’m right handed. So that right there told me I was right from the beginning, this wasn’t going to be worth a penny I spent on it. If it’s going to chip from the hand I use the most with in one hour then it’s not a very good polish at all! I would tell anyone that asked me about it not to buy it. Now I don’t know if it went on the way it did do to the shade I was using witch is call Linen, or if every color will act like that, but I have to say to forget about this one for sure.
