Yesterday I swatched a few of the new limited edition Sally Hansen Complete Salon Manicure nail polishes, and I have pictures of them for you today. The sun wasn't the best I've ever had for pictures, but good enough to get by. I swatched three of the shimmers before my patience for swatching wore thin.
I only got the colors from this collection that I really like so I don't have all the names in front of me, but of those I got, I can't make sense of the names or see how they're related to one another. They're pretty bad. But truthfully, if the worst thing about a polish is its name, I can live with that.
These all applied really well, now that I'm used to the wacky brush they have, and the colors are strong. First up is Perfect Match (which immediately makes me ask, "To what?"), a great red shimmer. It's on the dark side of real red and has a really glowy shimmer - I'm thinking it might be the perfect pedicure red. This is two coats of Perfect Match (completely dry).

The one with the worst name has received a good bit of hype, Sequin Scandal (a scandal related to one sequin). It reminds me a lot of the old Revlon Blacker Lacquer Talk Dirty. Here's two coats of Sequin Scandal, which I think I like better in the bottle than on my nails. It's smooth, it's the small flaky bits that make it look lumpy.

Back to one I like: Problem Child (not an inherently bad name, I just don't see how it's related to the other color names). This one's a deep plum with flaky shimmer bits. It looks deep plum indoors, not black, and I like it.

That's a good start to what this display offers. Although I got most of them, I did leave behind a few cremes that just weren't sufficiently noteworthy to buy. Now I've worn two and swatched two more, and I like them quite a bit. A happy surprise about Starry, Starry Flight was that it was easy to remove - I think the glitter's fine enough to make it completely not a hassle to take off, which also bodes well for the red glitter.
That's the update for today, Dear Reader. I'll show you the rest of my picks from this display as the week wears on. Untl then, love and nail polish to you!
