First Impressions: Sally Hansen Miracle Gel Review

You guys have been asking me to review the new Sally Hansen Miracle Gel so I wanted to do a quick first impressions post now just to get you some information quickly, and then follow up with how it wears later on.
For those of you who aren't familiar with Miracle Gel, it's a new line of gel nail polishes that are used with a special top coat that needs no curing under a lamp- just natural daylight. Typically, the top coat and colors are sold seperately, but I found these combo packs at Target for $14.99. I chose the color B-Girl because it reminds me of one of my favorite Essie shades, Mint Candy Apple.

The packaging claims "up to 14 days" of wear. I've seen a lot of people complaining on various blogs and review sites that it only lasted 10 or 11 days for them, not 14. Well, first of all, polish hardly lasts 3 days on me without chipping, so I'd be ecstatic with 10 days! Second, the claim is "up to" 14 days, so it's a little tricky in the wording, but they've covered themselves in case it doesn't last that long. It's just a matter of reading the packaging carefully.

The color comes in a clear bottle but the topcoat is blacked out. I'm guessing it's because of the photosensitive ingredients in there that they don't want exposed to light.

The box says to use 2 coats of color and one coat of the topcoat. Unfortunately, this went on very streaky so I had to use 3 coats. Still, the color went on bright and vibrant, and my nails look super shiny!
 It took a while to dry, which was a bummer because I had stuff to do and I was waiting around for between 20 min and half an hour with tacky nails.

Overall, the application process wasn't the best, but it will all be worth it if this makes it through the week without chipping. If it's still on by next weekend, I'll consider it a success!
Have you tried Miracle Gel yet? How's it working for ya?

***UPDATE***
My Miracle Gel Polish has chipped after 3 days of wear.  Just on one finger, but it's a pretty large chunk that's missing.  It may be because I used three coats and it's very thick, which tends to make it chip more easily but I don't know.  Still, 3 days is longer than regular polish lasts on me, so I'll give it that!
