Sally’s Love Affair with Canada

I don’t know what it is, but Sally Hansen seems to love putting out exclusive collections of the Salons in Canada. Not that I begrudge our Canadian neighbors the precious bottles, I’d just like to know what about Canada Sally is so enraptured with. Curiousity and all.

Everyone was agog at Project Runway, and it is a beauty. But I’ve included a few others from this collection that didn’t get as much press. I was particularly enraptured with Valentino. It’s a brown with a gold and slightly green tinge. And shinier than all get out.

This is probably the last collection to be issued in these square bottles. Which is sad news to me. Half the appeal of this line was the bottle. I don’t know what it is, but square nail polish bottles appeal to me – they seem to have a upscale sophistication about them. The new ones are more rounded and simply aren’t as sexy.

    I saw burnt sienna a long time ago, really wish I had picked it up back then and then an extra to use in a giveaway. Totally regret this.

    Have you guys noticed that the print on the Canadian SH Salons is so friggin tiny, you need a magnifying glass to read it?

    It is because Sally Hansen Canada is a separate division of the company. There are many products in the US line we don’t receive up here in the Great North either. Wal mart is like this too, the US stores are completely different than the Canadian counterpart.
