Overview

I was pleasantly surprised at how much I liked these shades.  My favorites are Minted Metal, Pink Copper and Cobalt Chrome, but they all turned out really nice.  You can see very minor brush strokes, but VERY minor.

One thing though, like any chrome shade, these will show every nail imperfection.  I don’t have prominent ridges on my nails which give a smoother appearance.  If you have more pronounced ridges though, you may want to use a ridge filler before using chrome shades such as the Sally Hansen Color Foils.

For my nails though, they turned out really well.

Price: $7.99

Where To Buy: Rite Aid, Walgreens, Walmart, Target and other chain drugstores that carry Sally Hansen.

What did you think of the Sally Hansen Color Foils?  Will you be picking any up?

Liquid Gold looks like it may be the shade I had in my “mind’s eye” for a couple of years but never could find a polish that really fit :)

I think I only really have silver chrome shades in different tones. I love both gold ones in this collection, but especially Liquid Gold!

Even though I own all of these, I never get sick of looking at swatches of them! These have to be my favorite collection of all time.

I was sent two of these from the US, Sterling Silver and Minted Metal and I love them! I also have a couple of the late 1990s/early 2000s Color Chromes which are very similar.

You swatches are just lovely!

I have a Layla Mirror polish that kind of looks like these! My nails never look good with foils because mine are so ridge-y…

I have a really hard time with chrome shades because I have a lot of peeling and it just accentuates it :(
