Sally Hansen Hearts Nail Art
The hottest accessory of the moment is on the tip of everyone’s fingers. Sally Hansen has always been the authority on everything nail related, and now they want to encourage women to decorate their digits in fun and unexpected ways with DIY nail art. On Wednesday, February 20th during Sally Hansen’s “I Heart Nail Art” event, guests were treated to cocktails and hors d’oeuvres while receiving complementary nail art manicures in designs ranging from hearts, roses and stripes. Once their nails were dry, guests could model their new looks on a miniature red carpet where their nails became the focus of everyone’s camera lens. A center table displayed an abundance of Sally Hansen products, from their Insta-Dry polish to decorative nail strips and Nail Art pens, enough to make any nail lover feel inspired to take up a brush and start painting the town with a few statement making nail designs of their own.
