Sally Hansen Patent Gloss Nail Polish - 720 Chic

The high-gloss finish is designed to be long-lasting, but its duration is significantly influenced by a top coat and daily activities. With a good top coat, the shine can remain prominent for several days.

Use a good quality acetone-based nail polish remover for efficient removal. Soak a cotton ball, press it onto the nail for 10-15 seconds, and then wipe away the polish.

While you can use it without a base coat, applying one is highly recommended. A base coat protects your natural nails from staining and helps the polish adhere better, leading to longer wear and a smoother finish.

The formula dries relatively quickly, but using a quick-dry top coat is the most effective way to speed up the overall drying process and add extra shine.

'Patent Gloss' refers to an exceptionally high, smooth, and reflective shine, similar to patent leather, providing a sophisticated and intense finish.

Two thin coats are usually sufficient for opaque, vibrant color. A third thin coat may be applied if deeper intensity is desired.

Ensure nails are completely dry before application. Apply thin coats and allow each to dry sufficiently before applying the next. If the polish has thickened in the bottle, it may be nearing the end of its usable life.

For deep, vibrant colors, a third thin coat might be necessary. Ensure you are applying even coats.

Always use a base coat to help polish adhere better. Seal the color with a quality top coat, and reapply the top coat every 2-3 days to extend wear.

Gently clean the brush bristles with nail polish remover if dried polish is causing stiffness. If bristles are splayed, this may be a manufacturing defect.
