The new Long-Lasting Sally Hansen Poolside Paradise miracle Gel nail polish Collection: This Mirror-Like shine Makes Lounging by the pool much more fun

five shades (and the top coat) from the new limited edition Sally Hansen Poolside Paradise Collection, available now ($9.99 each)
My version of a poolside paradise usually includes some combination of the following…

Trashy mags, and us weekly is a fave.
Strangely, I only read it when I’m at the pool…

Ľadový čaj.

One of those oversized fluffy beach towels that are so big that I can wrap them around my torso twice.
Because I’m not about that tiny towel life. even when it’s 95 degrees outside, I’m always freezing when I get out of the water.

Sunscreen, obvs.

A bathing suit that stays put even after multiple cannonballs (learned this lesson the hard way).

Cheapie sunglasses, because who wants to tension out over losing or breaking their favorite pair of expensive sunglasses at the pool?

A shiny mani/pedi combo, ideally in bright shades like the ones from the new Sally Hansen Poolside Paradise Collection above, because despite the lack of verifiable scientific evidence to support this, I think they make your cannonballs much more cannon-bally.
Seriously, they completely do.

I wore two of these Sally Hansen miracle Gel polishes last week on my trip to new Orleans (creamy yellow morning Sunshine on my toes and creamy leafy green Lip palm on my paws), and they were all it took. now I consider myself a card-carrying member the miracle Gel cult.

Wait — do the miracle Gels actually have a cult??

If they don’t, they completely should. These nail polishes are…

Dlhotrvajúci

Playful and bright

Easy to apply

And affordable

All of which add up to “drugstore gem!”

Sally Hansen Poolside Paradise miracle Gel in morning Sunshine

If you’re new to the Sally Hansen brand, her miracle Gels launched last year. The limited edition Poolside Paradise Collection is available now and includes seven $9.99 shades.

Unlike conventional gel polishes, the miracle Gel formula doesn’t require the use of a special UV lamp. All you do is paint your nails with one (or more, of course) of the colors, and then pop the miracle Gel top coat (also $9.99) on top.

To je všetko. You’re done. and that ought to last up to 14 days.

Technically, you don’t even need a base coat, either, but I’d still use one for the blues and greens, because those two color families typically stain my nails.

I wore a base coat with both morning Sunshine and Lip palm last week, then applied a layer of the miracle Gel top Coat, and I don’t think the base coat hurt anything at all.

Sally Hansen Poolside Paradise miracle Gel in Lip Palm
Normally, if I just look at my nails, whatever polish I’m wearing will chip.

OK, I’m exaggerating… A little. but I am very rough on my nails.

But these miracle Gels can take everything I dish out, like lugging around luggage, holding onto those stabilizer bars in streetcars, and opening and closing a zillion Ziploc bags filled with travel portions of products.

After eight days, my polish was still at about 95%, which is kind of miraculous, because with many polishes, I typically start seeing big chips on or around day three.

These may very well have lasted a full 14 days, but I switched them up with different nail polishes after eight.

Along with the lady boss wear time, you also get…

A wide, oversized brush (can cover a nail in a few strokes)

A 15-minute dry time

A shiny, mirror-like finish

A highly pigmented, smooth and creamy formula
