Hello loves & happy Sunday! I know we may be sick of the Sally Hansen x InstaDri content this week, but I’m just so excited to share the shades from this collection with you!
The Sally Hansen x Sesame Street InstaDri collection consists on 10 polishes — 4 creams, 2 glitter toppers, 2 metallic/shimmery shades, & 2 jelly glitters. It’s a great assortment of different shades brought together under one great collection. There is also a fun set of press on nails as part of their Salon Effect Perfect Manicure line (although I won’t be featuring those as part of my swatches.
Each shade is based around a corresponding Sesame Street character (or, characters) which is a fun idea. & I think all the polishes fit perfectly!
Hello lovelies & happy Wednesday! We’re officially mid week & that much closer to the weekend. It’s been a busy week for me so far, so I feel like that’s reflected in my nail art. When it’s stressful/busy times, I definitely don’t have the time or energy for more complicated nail art.
But! I have some exciting nail art to share with you today because it features some nail polish I was recently surprised with! Friday I came home to some surprise nail mail from Sally Hansen featuring the Sally Hansen x Sesame Street InstaDri collaboration. I really couldn’t wait for a chance to try these shades out, so I decided to pair a few in a quick freehand stripe look.
The polishes I used for this manicure are:
Base Coat: Sally Hansen Miracle Gel Colour Grip Primer Base Coat
Top Coat: Sally Hansen Miracle Gel Glossy Top Coat
Sally Hansen x Sesame Street InstaDri 1 Polish, Ah Ah Ah
Sally Hansen x Sesame Street InstaDri Am I Not Adora-blue?
Sally Hansen x Sesame Street InstaDri Turquesa Brillante
I guess we’re back to Summer, haha. Even though I had fully embraced the Fall flakie vibes with my previous manicure, I am very much in love with the colour scheme of this design. They’re very bright, & colourful, which is perfect for a collection based on something like Sesame Street. I’m looking forward to swatching all the shades to shade for this weekend’s Swatch Sunday post.
What do you think of this bright & colourful stripe-y look? Are you a fan of this colourful design? Have you seen the Sally Hansen clx Sesame Street shades in any of your nail polish haunts? Let me know all your thoughts in comments below!

Hello lovelies & happy Monday. It’s a beautiful chilly Monday morning here, & I’ll have to admit it… I’m loving it. Autumn is my favourite season, the Halloween decorations have started popping up in store, & it’s officially PSL release day at Starbucks on Thursday. So I think I’m ready to (fully) embrace some Fall nail polish vibes.
The other day it was a very rainy, chilled day so I decided to grab a few Autumn-ish shades from my stash for a skittlette. I bought this Color Club set from Winners (or Marshall’s… can’t remember) last year & it has a beautiful selection of colours. None of them, however, have any names. But I really wanted to pair them together, & I think this is one of my favourite Skittle designs I’ve ever done because of how beautiful they look together!
The polishes I used for this manicure are:
Base Coat: Sally Hansen Miracle Gel Colour Grip Primer Base Coat
Top Coat: Sally Hansen Miracle Gel Glossy Top Coat
Color Club blue-ish grey
Color Club grey
Color Club dusty rose
Color Club wine
Color Club dark rose
Essie Shine of the Times
Obviously, I had to add some sparkle to this look, & there is no better sparkle to pull out this time of year than Essie Shine of the Times. It adds the most beautiful sparkle to whatever polish to apply it to, & jazzes up every manicure!

Hello lovelies & happy Monday! A brand new week to enjoy. Today, I’m sharing a little bit of sparkle with you to start off this week. I recently was feeling stuck for inspiration, so I decided to grab one of my favourite purple OPIs Dutch You Just Love OPI?, & a pretty glitter OPI, & create a quick, easy glitter gradient!
The polishes I used for this manicure are:
Base Coat: Sally Hansen Miracle Gel Colour Grip Primer Base Coat
Top Coat: Sally Hansen Miracle Gel Glossy Top Coat
OPI Dutch You Just Love OPI?
OPI Charmmy & Sugar
Latex free make up sponge (mine are from Dollarama)
Check out that sparkle! I love it. I don’t know if I’ve ever worn this pretty sparkle before (it’s from the 2016 OPI x Hello Kitty collaboration) but I think it looks incredible over this purple. I love a good glitter gradient, & sometimes you find two polishes that just go together so perfectly. I love that moment.
What do you think of this quick & simple nail art look to start off your Monday? I know it’s not the most exciting of manicures, but sometimes you just want a little bit of sparkle.

It’s a beautiful sunny day here on the East Coast, but I won’t lie… the last few days have felt surprisingly Autumn-like compared to the weather we’ve been having. Cooler mornings, & that little bit of breeze. But you know, I’m still feeling those Summer vibes, & I want to fully enjoy that a bit longer before I pull out my darker shades & my Fall plaids.
Today I’m feeling Summer Barbie vibes with this fun pink skittle look!
The polishes I used for this manicure are:
Base Coat: Sally Hansen Miracle Gel Colour Grip Primer Base Coat
Top Coat: Sally Hansen Miracle Gel Glossy Top Coat
China Glaze Float On
China Glaze Shocking Pink
China Glaze Thistle Do Nicely
China Glaze Hang Ten Toes
China Glaze Chit-Chat
Sally Hansen Miracle Gel Glaze Top Coat •pr•
I’m kind of sad how freaking hidden the Glazed top coat turned out to be on my nails, but I feel like the direct sunlight definitely contributed to that too. Either way, I think this pink skittle look is so much fun, & it was nice to pull out so many of my China Glaze pinks for this look! I’ll be honest, I haven’t grabbed from that drawer in a while, & I kind of forgot about what was in there.
What do you think of this pink Barbie-esque skittle look? Are you still feeling the Barbie vibes, or do you hear those Autumn nights calling? Let me know all your thoughts down in the comments below!
