Sally Hansen’s Miracle Gel line is one of the most internet-searched nail polish lines that exists in the world today.
It’s a long-wearing nail polish that’s available at “drugstore” prices, and not only that, they are constantly releasing new, fresh colors in that line.
You can find unique nail lacquer formulas in the Miracle Gel line, and their new line of special effect top coats is definitely that.
These toppers are so pretty in the bottle and they add an extra layer of sparkly to your manicure.
Today you’ll see swatches of 2 Sally Hansen Miracle Gel Top Coats, the Unicorn Top Coat and the Crystal Top Coat.
Fuchsia Fever has a “Barbie nails” look and these toppers just make this color look more Barbie.
Below we’ll start with swatches of Fuchsia Fever to see what that looks like on its own, followed by swatches of the Unicorn Top Coat, then the Crystal Top Coat, ending with a comparison between them.

Shown in 2 coats, Fuchsia Fever is a classic, bright hot pink.
I like that Sally Hansen has a longwearing neon collection because many neons have a reputation for chipping quickly; meaning they’ve chipped by dinner when you’ve put them on in the morning.
This longwearing neon pink is definitely a “value added” innovation to polish in the market.

On the nail, it pulls more orange and red, giving it a fall leaf inspired look.
Below is a comparison of what these toppers look like side-by-side:

Overall, the Unicorn Top Coat is a light greenish gold topper which gives the nail a warm toned micro shimmer. Whereas the Crystal Top Coat is a red and orange “fall leaf” topper with much more distinct glitters.
For best results using the Sally Hansen Miracle Gel line:
Pair either of these top coats with the other formulas in the Miracle Gel system. They dry with the hardest finish when you wear them with a Miracle Gel Step 1 Color.
