    Still showing as 10p at Sainsbury's for me, £8.98 at Asda. Probably a misprint though...

    Asda says n/a for me
  • There were fake nails & lashes down to 10p in my local, shelf was empty though.
  • At 10p this stuff should be a bargain, but it isn't for me. I have really long natural nails and this stuff splits them right down the middle, I don't know why. I don't mean peeling a bit, or losing the end of the nail, it splits vertically towards my fingers, it's really quite weird. My nails grow quickly so it wasn't the end of the world, but I really wasn't happy. I'm sure it must work for some people though, else how could they sell it?
    So so SO tired of being ripped off, and mislead
    Hope sharing saves some pain.

    Strange you should say that, I've been trying to grow my nails (I'm a biter :o) and was doing really well until I stared using Sally Hanson Hard As Nails and they all started going flakey and splitting. The temptation to just 'even them up a little' was too muich so I've had to start growing them all over again. Think I'll avoid SH from now on and see how I do.
    Some days you're the dog..... most days you're the tree! :D

    It might be worth trying for a little while and seeing what happens, my nails certainly didn't like it. I have also tried the gold one, I forget the name of that one, but it didn't work well for me either.

    To give Sally Hanson some credit, I did contact them about it at the time, because I was so annoyed. They asked me to send the bottle back and then they would refund me, but I had a lot else on at the time and I didn't ever get round to it. Might be worth dropping them and e-mail if you find it is the problem, you could probably get your money back.

    It might be worth trying soaking your nails in olive oil (or another oil of your choice) once and week and seeing if that helps strengthen them, if you haven't tried that already. That's pretty much all I do to mine every now and again now, apart from filing them with a large glass file from Poundland. Keeping and an eye on the sides of nails seems to help me a lot, since if they split it's usually from the side. Sorry random extra information you didn't ask for there, but I hope it's helpful.

    *phew* I hope I don't sound ungrateful, it was a very good spot at that price :)
