    I purchased a Sally Hansen Nail Art Pen in Black in an effort to make designs on my nails in an easier fashion than using toothpicks, but found it to be almost as difficult, and less effective due to the fact that the pen smears when you attempt to apply a top coat. It is suggested to use a top coat after the pen dries, so I left the pen to dry for a good half hour before attempting to apply the top coat, and touched my finger tip to it to see if it would come off. It appeared dry, and did not rub off on my finger, but as soon as I applied the top coat, the pen began to run across my nail.
    I have yet to try another brand of nail pen, as they are quite pricey, so I don't have any recommendations as to an alternative brand to try, but I really would advise against using the Sally Hansen pen. The application was simple, and the control over the pen tip was great... but the staying power... not so much, which kind of throws a wrench in the gears if you want a nice design.

    Bought 2 of these pens, found them very hard and complicated to use. Not easy at all, often messed up my nail polish that had been dry for quite a while. Not good for trying smaller designs.

    Like many, I was super excited to use these nail pens. Unfortunately, my experience was not a good one. When I shook the pen, little drops of black nailpolish splashed out onto my shirt and carpet. Also I found the consistency too watery which did nothing for my nails. I think I'll stick to using a tip to make my designs.

    Overall I have had a good experience with these pens but today was a different story.

    I went to use it, the "nail polish" leaked out of the pen, all over me and my freshly painted nails.
    Very watery liquid may I add. It took forever for it to dry and had a foul smell.

    I've only had this pen for a few weeks, the cap has always been on tight and it sits with tip towards the ceiling.
    I have other ones made by sally and I have never had a problem.

    I got one of these in my Christmas stocking and was really excited to use it. Since I am all about doing my nails all the time I thought this would be so much fun to use and i would be able to do intricate designs etc. Well I failed hard :( it puddled a lot at some points ruining the design and it smudged SO easily. I am really disappointed in this product..

    Bought the Sally Hansen Nail Art Pen in white today cause it was half price and I've wanted the white one for a while (never there all the other times I see it on sale!). Must say I was quite disappointed by this after all the wait. The white is not very opaque, quite watery in consistency. The idea of it is great but i think white out would look better then this. Def. would not recommend it for a french as the tip is far too thin for that to be effective.

    I had always been keen to try the Sally Hansen nail art pens....they appear easy and fun to use, but their effectiveness is the same as nail polish from the bottle!

    The Sally Hansen nail polish pen is a fun tool for your nail polish collection, but there are pros and cons !

    Some of the pros:

    -Fun colours
    -Easy to grip
    -Great for on the go

    Some of the cons:

    -Tough to get the nail polish out
    -Leaks

    Overall I would recommend that you buy this to add to your nail polish collection because it is a fun addition, but it is not better than the classic nail polish in the bottle!
