Have you seen the new line of Sally Hansen X-Treme Wear polishes? I've heard they are a limited edition Fall release, and I believe they're quite limited because I've only seen them in Ulta. They are a nice mix of glitters that have that indie-esque look about them. And for $2.99, I had to try one out! I chose a pink jelly called Confetti Punch.
Confetti Punch was one of two, if I remember correctly, from the new line that does not have a clear base. However, the pink jelly base is very sheer, so I layered it with my all-time favorite undies, Zoya Kendal.
Isn't this cute? There is a LOT going on in here...the predominant glitter color is royal blue, and combined with the pink base, it gives Confetti Punch a fairy tale feel. But there is also green and pink and a beautiful pink micro glitter.
The pink micro glitter totally makes this polish worthy of its name. It looks like fruit juice pulp!! Ah, go ahead and laugh...you knew the food reference was coming! ;)

And guess what? This polish is surprisingly grown-up. It is very glittery, but with an elegant feel. I wore this polish to a business meeting this morning, and I looked completely appropriate...Prince Charming didn't even come around to ask me for a waltz. Blast.
What do you think of Sally Hansen's new glitter line? This is a very nice polish, wears well, and sells for 3 bucks. The End.
Thanks for stopping by, and have a lovely day! :)
Oooh I love this! It's so fun and sparkly and girly! :D My day's ok so far, thanks for asking. The engine light for my car came on, so I took it to the shop. $500 to fix, unfortunately. Hope your day's good and cheaper than mine! :D

It is very sparkly and girly! I think it's just so pretty. Oh, no...I'm sorry about your car. :( Pooh, do I ever hate car problems! I hope today is better for you. <3
DeleteSo pretty!! Love love love it!
ReplyDeleteThanks Miss Jasmine! <3 I was really pleased with the sparkle factor!
DeleteNo, I haven't seen the new line. It looks very "indie-ish". Very pretty! I shall check them out. Oh, and today is treating me pretty good ;)
ReplyDeleteThey're all pretty polishes...I don't know why they don't seem to be very available. Yay...I'm glad you're doing well. <3
DeleteThis one is pretty on you. It's an unusual color combo. I picked up 3 or 4 from this collection recently but skipped this one. I like it though and will have to check it out if I see it again.
ReplyDeleteI almost chose another one (the bronze one) but decided to get this since I prefer a colored base. You should check it out...it looks more expensive than it is. :)
DeleteI love that you wore this to a business meeting :) It looks totally fun but not over-the-top. My very first glitter was an Xtreme Wear, Disco Ball. I don't exactly get along with the Xtreme Wear cremes but the glitters seem like nice folks :)
ReplyDeleteI always say I am so lucky to have a boss who doesn't care what nail polish I wear...he knows I'll pull it together and not embarrass him, LOL. :D You know, I don't have any X-Treme Wear cremes, but there is a shimmer called Marine Scene that is one of my very favorite teal blues. <3
DeleteYay for a blingy work friendly polish!! I love the assortment of glitters in this and the fact that it's limited edition makes me want them more! I have quite a few of the X-Treme Wear polishes but their glitters are definitely my favorite. You should check out Strobe Light! I think you would really like that one
ReplyDeleteStrobe Light, that's what I meant, not Disco Ball. It looks like a disco ball :D
DeleteI have looked at Strobe Light before and wondered if I needed it. :D I think SH did a good job on these fall glitters.
DeleteHi Melissa, oh I love glitters that take you from Meetings to Waltz!!! Beautiful on you, awesome pictures and I sure would have missed the food reference ;-)!!! And that ice crystal necklace is the perfect match - have a lovely weekend <3
ReplyDeleteThanks!! :) And I'm glad you appreciate my food references. :P I love those all-purpose glitters too!
DeleteLooks like a very pretty glitter! For only $3 it seems like a great deal :) Huh, I never imagined Sally Hansen could come up with such an indy-esque polish...
ReplyDeleteThis is a fun polish. I think I need it!! lol
ReplyDeleteIt's a super price!! I hope you can find them! :)
DeleteThis is a fun polish. I think I need it!! lol
