Sula Paint and Peel Nail polish..Ehhhh

I purchased Sula Paint and Peel polish from Ulta and it sells for about $9. I tried the color Dove. This has got to be one of the least favorite polishes I have ever tried. It definitely is not one that fits within my lifestyle. It's a water based polish and the whole concept here is to be able to take the polish off without having to use a polish remover.
There were 3 easy steps printed on the outer package. I like trying new polishes so I said great. Now when I got home and unpacked the polish this is where I saw the "other" set of directions.
  • Wear it for a day or two...Say what!
  • Apply new layers of top coat daily....ummm really???
  • Keep it short, short nails=less chips...No dice here Sula.
  • and here is the kicker..Avoid hot water for 4 hours following application and protect nails until they are completely dry following a bath or shower. I don't have 4 hours to worry about my nail polish coming off. The outer package just says wait 10 minutes to dry. What's up?
Well I do a lot with my hands so it seems as though this concept polish is not for me :( . This is the first water based polish I have tried so I don't know if they all behave this way. I'm just upset that I paid $9 for something that I could not keep looking good on my nails for more than 24 hours. Yes it started smudging and peeling later in the day.

  2. Yes it sure does! Save your money. They knew if they put those instructions outside the package no one would buy it.
