Nail polish and nail lacquer are used for the purpose of nail protection. Polish is a varnish applied on the nails to make them shiny, whereas nail lacquer is a much thicker solution. According to Webster’s Dictionary, a nail polish is defined as: “varnish applied to the fingernails or toenails to color them or make them shiny”.

I am an Accountant and I use my hands all day, usually chipping regular nail polish regardless of brand after at least the 3rd day of wearing it. In addition to being a ridiculously “rough handed” I am also a mother of a 9 year old with a very busy dance life of her own, oh and did I mention I am a wife to a super supportive man that runs his own business? Anyway, like most women, my time is one of the most important & precious things to me. An hour alone for some pampering is like gold, so I try my best to get as much done in that hour as possible. When I saw the Sally Hansen’s Miracle Gel Nail Polish & Top coat, I gotta say I was ultra excited about an affordable product that claimed to give me the same shine and no chip longevity of a Gel Nail Polish application without the curing lamp. All I could think was, maybe I could do my toes and hands in the same hour!
