Sally Hansen Hard as Nails Xtreme Wear in Mellow Yellow
What: Sally Hansen Hard as Nails Xtreme Wear in Mellow Yellow
Where: Walgreens
Price: $2.89


I bought this way back in June, at the same time I bought the Sinful Colors polish in Neon Melon. I had the idea that I was going to compare the two yellows with one another, but I wound up overdosing on yellow before I had a chance to try the Xtreme Wear. That’s a pity, because it turns out this is a much more wearable polish.
This polish was easy to apply and was opaque after two coats. The thickness was not quite even and it probably could have benefited from a third coat. However, from what I hear, yellow polishes are often difficult like this, so three coats doesn’t sound that bad. The color is also surprisingly wearable. It’s not a harsh, neon yellow. It’s more of a warm daffodil yellow that went pretty well with a lot of my clothing and didn’t attract any weird looks.
The polish lasted four days before chipping, which isn’t bad at all. (I believe I’ve mentioned before how rough I am on my nails.) If you want a bit of brightness on your nails to counteract the season’s gloom, I recommend this nail polish.
