"  Here in the Beauty Lab at Good Housekeeping Research Institute (GHRI), we&amp;#039;re always looking out for exciting new products, especially ones that are innovative. As I&amp;#039;m someone who never leaves the house without painted nails (and love doing it myself), when I saw Sally Hansen&amp;#039;s new Salon Effects Real Nail Polish Strips, I just had to test them out.  The Salon Effects product consists of adhesive polish strips that you peel and apply to your nails and, the best part, don&amp;#039;t require any drying time! Sally Hansen claims they&amp;#039;ll stay looking good for ten days. They&amp;#039;re available in bold solid colors or crazy geometrical prints, which I found particularly enticing because I&amp;#039;d never be able to create them on my own, So, I decided to go wild and chose #350, &amp;quot;Misbehaved&amp;quot; for my test. The instructions were pretty clear and easy to follow. First you match the appropriate strip size to your nail (I recommend lining them up in ascending sizes first so you can see all the choices), then you peel off the backing and carefully stick the strip to your nail and smooth it out. The directions then say to smooth the excess over the edge of your nail and file (a mini file is included in the box!) off the excess. While I expected that the filing would give a messy, rough result, I was surprised at the smooth edges I was able to create. I admit that it took a few minutes to develop my technique on the first few nails but once I got it down, I did the rest of the nails quickly. Best of all, I loved the professional-looking results and received so many compliments on my nails! As promised, the pattern didn&amp;#039;t chip, at least for the eight days I wore the strips.   The last picture on the bottom is how my nails looked on the final day.  However, I did have a problem with the removal. Although Sally Hansen says that the strips come off with regular nail polish remover, I found it took a lot of time and elbow grease. Stock up on cotton balls, nail polish remover, and find a good TV show to watch while you go through the process! The Bottom Line: A great new product! For just $10 you can give your nails a professional-looking manicure that won&amp;#039;t chip for at least 8 days.  "^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
